Coro Gold and Necklace & Earrings Set, Circa 1950's

This jewelry set is a vintage Coro parure (matching set of jewelry), featuring red rhinestones and faux pearls. It is an example of mid-century costume jewelry by one of the largest and most prominent American manufacturers of the 20th century. Description The set consists of a necklace and matching clip-on earrings. The design features an ornate, layered floral or spray motif made from base metal with both silver-tone and gold-tone finishes. Materials: Simulated ruby red rhinestones and small white faux pearls. These are typically glass or crystal stones, not genuine gemstones. Design: The necklace central portion has a detailed arrangement of leaves set with clear or red rhinestones and pearls. The design is characteristic of Coro work, which often includes intricate floral and nature motifs. The earrings mirror the side elements of the necklace pendant. Approximate Time of Manufacture Coro was a prominent manufacturer from the 1930s to the 1970s, with its heyday lasting through the mid-1950s. This specific style, with the combination of gold-tone foliage and colored rhinestones, strongly suggests a manufacture date in the 1940s or 1950s. This Coro set is a wonderful mid-century necklace to add a touch of sparkle to the holidays or any evening occasion. Condition: Very Good- shows minimal wear for its age.
