    This 2 3-4" crest type brooch has its popular 1950s aqua & pink rhinestone colors in a deco pattern on goldtone, signed Joseph Wiesner NY in back.
    Continuing to organize and since many have asked where I keep my jewelry, here are pix of my 4 ft H jewelry cabinet with some favorite pieces in view

      Luv the brooch. Have not heard of the maker. Eisenberg used those rows of small pave set rhinestones in the 1960s. Great cabinet — interesting to see how others solve their storage issues. I always want to see my pieces, and yet how do you do that? You have answered that question.

      That's a beautiful brooch, interesting shield shape perfectly laid out in stone size and colour.
      Thanks for showing your cabinet Jenni. It's always interesting to see how collectors store and show their treasures. This looks pretty clever: easy to open things up to check and admire!

      Thanks Daisy for the super compliments, I do notice the Eisenberg style in the central pave area, Joseph Wiesner was a 50s designer who liked very fancy styles like this one. Wanted one of these jewelry armoires for awhile, they are very sensibly made & really hold alot of pieces

      Mary you got me, this cabinet does NOT hold everything I have, esp since most of the drawers are partitioned so you are limited from overcrowding (which if you have seen my glass animal cabinet, you know I am prone to do :) The good thing is, the light velour lining inside the side doors, although they have hooks for bracelets & necklaces, it allows you to poke brooch pins through the back, so I can add alot of brooches to them. My stepdaughter is over the moon about this cabinet, though she is a grown woman she likes to try things on like a kid, and loves my chunky Napier necklaces (the Miami and the bobcat pendants), I am going to gift them to her & free up more space for other things. Great compliments Mary thank you so very much XO

      Thank you Karen for the lovely praise, this shield or crest also came in clear stones but I love the aqua & pink combo, it really reminds me of its 50s era when they made things like aqua appliances & pink Cadillacs! My "organizing mode" is strictly due to this stay-home covid situation, you have to find things to do beyond sitting in front of the TV, so since we are still furnishing our new house we have made one room for my collectibles and have fortunately found some nice cabinets locally & online to complete it, keeps me busy :)

      Thank you six-0-one for your very kind compliments, I agree with you about seeing a heart shape in the brooch, sellers mainly called it crest or shield so I went with that - thought your clear stone Weiss last wk had quite the similar shape it was beautiful! You know it is always hard to choose the right jewelry for occasions, at least this cabinet allows you to see everything at a glance - formerly I had smaller cabinets & jewelry "trees" but this larger one makes decisions much easier

      MrsT thank you for the wonderful compliment on both the brooch & cabinet, I chose the two together as the brooch doesn't need to be seen in different positions, and I just wanted to show my CW friends who have been asking (yourself included :) a couple pictures of my jewelry cabinet, glad you enjoyed

      Thanks Mani for your fab compliments I am thrilled that you enjoy my collection because I love to show it on CW, it is nice to present a bit of vintage jewelry & glass for others to appreciate, and everyone is so sweet and receptive here. You can look thru my jewelry box anytime my friend!

      Oh my god, what a heat! Beautiful and well made. Great find!
    8. Newfld Newfld, 4 years ago
      Elisabeth many thanks for the lovely compliment & the love too, this Wiesner brooch was a special find for me as I really like the aqua & pink rhinestones together they are very complementary. Hope you enjoyed the cabinet too, it certainly helps having your jewelry in one place!

      Roycroft thanks for the super comment, I recently discovered these cabinets & tried to find one of the biggest to hold all my "gem junk" lol! Glad your wife likes 'em too, much easier to see your stuff in drawers as opposed to scrambling thru little boxes

      Thank you clockerman for the kind love for this brooch & my display cabinet, I'm working on a holiday time post showing my glass animals in a credenza, the collection is growing and space is short, so I hope you will enjoy my latest storage unit soon
