The hallmark Accessocraft N.Y.C. identifies as a high-end vintage costume jewelry piece from Accessocraft Products Company, a prominent New York City-based designer active from the 1930s until 1998. Design & Era This specific piece is an example of the Tribal and Ethnic Revival styles that were highly popular in the 1960s and 1970s. During this peak period, Accessocraft became famous for bold, massive statement pieces. Pendant Style: The ornate silver-tone centerpiece is a "Renaissance or Byzantine Revival" amulet, designed to look like a heavy, antiqued prayer box with traditional dangling fobs. Beads: While they resemble genuine amber, Accessocraft typically used high-quality Czechoslovakian glass, Lucite, or resin to mimic natural materials like amber and coral. Metal: These pieces are usually crafted from a high-quality silver-plated base metal that has been treated with an "antiqued" patina to enhance the old-world tribal aesthetic.
