The jewelry case at Salvation is finally filling up again. I noticed this piece right away. It had to be Trifari but where was the mark ?? I finally found it on the tiny fastening hook. The quality is first rate. Obviously an Alfred Phillpe design. Faux pearls and sparkling rhinestones in a beautiful rhodium plated mount attached to a cobra chain. Looks like the costume jewelry drought is over ! -Mike-
A beauty Mike. I guess only the knowledgeable can make comments like "It had to be Trifari"!
I hope Ken see this!
Thanks Karen..... I can't believe it was marked on just that tiny little hook. I have other pieces and you do get to recognize the style and the heft of Trifari. You would definitely know you had this on !
Glad you found it, a very nice piece for your collection ! Sherman sometimes marked their pieces on the hook also.
Beautiful find and clever hunter :-))
Thanks so much Phil :)
Thank you Kyra...it is quite stunning :)
A double thank you Ken :).... my friend was finally able to do jewelry after about a month. The cases had been pretty much bare up to that point. So I definitely noticed this beauty !
I'm so impressed Mike. You are constantly expanding your already extreme wheelhouse of knowledge on just about everything. I can't take it all in at once but you what it takes man. :) 0)
oops you "got" what it takes.
Thank you One for the "love'"and all the nice compliments. It does help to have good sources too and we have some pretty good thrifts in my area. It is that "one good find" that keeps you collecting and plenty of the "one's that get away" too. :)
Thank You Val :)
