    An "old" friend gave me this Hobe set, comprising a necklace and two clip-on earrings. I haven't see similar styles (yet) and would love to know more about this set. Let me know if you'd need more pictures. Thanks !

      I don't have any additional info for you but interestingly enough it has been in my inventory for years (I am working on an online store). I closed my shop about 10 years ago and everything has been patiently waiting to make an appearance. I have the bracelet to this set ...and maybe the earrings too. I have looked at your closely and it is a definite match! How fun that I stumbled upon this. If I find out more I will let you know and if you do I would love to hear what you may find out.

      Good luck!

      Thanks Silvia ! How awesome ! Would be interested to view the matching bracelet (in your online store ? ... or you can send me a picture(s) to my email .... mail2me at netzero ?

      Yes, please post the bracelet! It's an unusual set and if exquisitevintagejewels didn't mention she had another one, I would have thought it was reassembled with a Hobe clasp by a crafts person. And it would not be the first time I get this impression from pieces marked Hobe, so their style is not ordinary, it has a "quirk". I would love to find a comprehensive quality resource on Hobe designs and designers that goes beyond dating markings, anyone has a suggestion?

      PollyZ so sorry about the long awaited response. I am relatively new to messaging with Collectors and I thought I would be alerted automatically if there were other comments...I guess not....I now see that I must check a box to be emailed.
      Yes, I am working frantically to get the website up and running. I have a ton in inventory from a shop I closed over 10 years ago so it is very slow going. I finally decided that I would go ahead and launch the website if I could just get at least one item under each designer I have on hand and that is what I am doing now. I will take a photo tomorrow and post it.
