MIRIAM HASKEL 50'S GOLD
GILT BRASS ICE CLEAR ROSE MONTEÉ CLUSTER 5-LINK BRACELET & CLUSTER EARRINGS
For your consideration,
a rare find. The pieces are Art Nouveau inspired. The links are
gold gilt filigree brass and each is jewel encrusted to form this
gorgeous chunky 5-Link bracelet. The bracelet is designed with
individual links, each with a cluster mound of concentric circles of ice clear
rose montée mounted in individual colette which form a flower. The
crystals are prong set. The link between each cluster is decorated
with a row of three ice clear rose montée. It
fastens with fold over latch and loop. The bracelet is signed “MIRIAM
HASKELL” on a small oval cartouche on the underside.
The earrings are three
clusters of ice clear rose montée smoldered together to form a tiny bouquet of
gold gilt brass circular florets. The tiny florets are all fused to a gold gilt
brass filigree base. The earrings fasten with lever clip backs, which have
screws to allow for adjustment for comfortable fit and provide security from
being lost. The earrings are signed “HASKELL” on the ridge of the lever back
and “MIRIAM HASKELL” on the base of each earring.
Weight & Dimensions:
The bracelet has a good
weight of 34 grams It is 7 ½”L x 1"W x ½"H.
The earrings each
weighs 4grams. The earrings are asymmetric and
3-Dimensional measuring approximately ¾” on each side and is ¾” in
thickness.
Condition: This set is pre-owned vintage acquired
at an estate auction in Texas. Haskell gold gilt 5-Link bracelets
are extremely rare and hard to come by. This
rare find is beautiful to see and wear. The piece dates
CIRCA 1950-1959's. The links have some tarnish
which gives the filigree brass a Russian Gold hue. The underside of
the fold over latch has wear and scratches but it fastens securely with a
snap. It can easily be polished, I think the tarnish adds
to the vintage charm of the piece. Please note it is the
nature of brass to tarnish and develop some patina over time.
No missing crystals from the rose Montée and they all sparkle like
diamonds.
The earrings are well
preserved with little to no wear or tarnish. The gold gilt brass
surface is shiny and clean. No missing crystal. No
darkening or other damage to any part of the earrings. The screw
adjusts easily and the lever back holds securely to the ear lobe.
Overall condition of
pieces of this set well preserved, however, look at the pictures so
you can make an assessment for yourself. If you like I can send more
pictures and will answers any questions you have.
NOTE: All pieces in this auction are
part of my personal collection of vintage Haskell
costume jewelry. They have been in storage for years and may need a
small amount of cleaning. Most of my pieces have been gently worn, a
few are unworn. I do not clean my Haskell pieces as I am
not an expert and some cleaning agents can be corrosive to vintage costume
jewelry, particularly faux pearls.
