This 3"L all-rhinestone & aurora borealis on goldtone brooch is a most unusually shaped addition to my seahorse jewelry collection (see pic #4). With topaz & other autumnal colors, this November birthstone topaz belongs to my CW friend Ken-nutsabotas6 who loves Juliana jewelry & I hope will visit us again soon. This book piece Juliana (1947-1990) seahorse was designed by Delizza & Elster in the 1960s from their D & E Sea Life Collection and is featured on the Is It Juliana website
Missing him too, a favourite great CW person.
This beauty might get him back?
Wonderful brooch and great color for the season, and your great collection.
That is a stunning seahorse and that is a stunning seahorse collection!!! I also love what they are placed on- is it a scarf? It's so pretty and in keeping with the sea creature theme- that one is so small and sweet in design, the little stone make it seem like he's set with colourful sea stones and shells
Beautiful piece congratulations on the collection !~
Many thanks everyone for the seahorse love

Thanks Karen for your wonderful kind comment, yes I think of Ken often he was one of our jewelry collector superstars and a heckuva nice guy, always a kind word and so helpful with sincere advice, he had tremendous knowledge about the dates of your piece, truly one of a kind. I like to think he does look in on our site once in awhile & know he would enjoy this topaz brooch
Thank you six-0-one for the super compliments, as a D & E Juliana collector with such fabulous pieces I hoped you would enjoy this seahorse. There are many others in various stone colors on the Is It Juliana site under brooch-fish-sea creatures, the only thing I found baffling is why the design has so many reflective round AB stones, made it very hard to photograph without glare I did my best. Still in all, a very unique seahorse!
Thanks so much Lori for your great compliments I am delighted that you enjoyed this seahorse in its seasonal colors, I saw a couple others but did not have a seahorse in my collection with these autumnal shades, and going with paler colors kind of obliterated the lovely design due to those overdone AB stones. Yes I think it is a nice fit with my seahorse collection, very kind of you to notice them, most have been posted here but a few were more recent gifts of indeterminate age, I only like to post items at least 20 yrs old (unless I have an accompanying vintage piece for a combo) in keeping with the vintage theme here
Lauren you are absolutely amazing, you totally nailed it describing this seahorse, those bright AB stones are probably meant to be seashells!! The more I look at it, I am reminded of the abundance of seashell decorated marine life forms like seahorses in gift shops of coastal resort towns such as those found in Florida and Montauk NY, this seahorse would fit right in there - thank you so much for your incredible vision and praise, you always surprise & delight me, plus you teach me so much. Thanks too for enjoying the rest of my seahorse brooch collection and yes, they are sitting on a folded scarf with borders of sea creatures, and in the center is a fishnet which I thought was a cool spot to put them on, glad you liked
Thank you Phil for your awesome praise for both this Juliana piece and the rest of my collection, I guess you can tell from my profile pic as well as my first post, that seahorses are my fave ocean animal - I used to have a floor lamp from Florida filled with shells and a few large dried seahorses, it was so beautiful but over time got damaged so no longer have it, but maybe that's what got me started on loving these mysterious creatures, and on TV documentaries they always fascinate me
Gorgeous seahorse Jenni!
MrsT thank you so much for the wonderful compliment & love for my latest seahorse brooch, you had once remarked it seemed like I had quite a few of them and if you noticed the fourth photo, you were absolutely right!! This new Juliana one is quite the sparkler, I am going to wear it at Thanksgiving to show a couple family members (no friends or parties, gotta be safe this year) & think they will enjoy the colors
Pretty little brooch ...I like seahorses and sand dollars ...smiling
Alfred thank you so much for your wonderful praise you are so kind, like you I am a big fan of both seahorses and sand dollars at the shore - Jones Beach which is our largest beach in Nassau County Long Island NY where I live, used to sell the most beautiful sand dollars formed out of packed sand and then dyed in beautiful colors, I have one in turquoise blue that I've had for years and is one of my favorite things. Of course seahorses are #1 with me, and I'm really glad you liked this Juliana sparkler & also appreciate the love :)
Thanks guys for the kind love

Sean thank you so much for the love and support, you're such a great guy to always remember me. Appreciate your liking this seahorse which I have just learned is a key piece in a sea-life collection by Delizza & Elster Juliana isn't that so cool
Thanks vcal and Giana for the love for this Juliana seahorse & other kind loves for my collection today, I'm truly grateful to you both for your kind consideration
Thanks very much Lori for the love for this D&E seahorse, this one is so reflective and one of my favorite seahorse brooches in my collection. I'm so glad you liked it and always grateful for your kindness
Thanks rhineisfine and Leelani for the kind love for this Juliana seahorse, it was great to add this sparkler to my seahorse brooch collection & I'm really happy you liked it
Thank you Dawn for the love for this Juliana seahorse, it's very kind of you and always gratefully appreciated
Very appealing seahorse, so adorably chunky, and the topaz and AB stones just glow! I have yet to meet anyone who doesn't like seahorses, and this one is both elegant and cute. It must make a stunning impact when worn!
rhineisfine thank you for your super praise for this Juliana seahorse, it surely is a sparkler & attention-getter whenever I wear it; I'm a seahorse lover from way back as I'm sure you can tell from my seahorse profile pic (that one is glass & filled with layered shades of blue sand I believe), and think they are endlessly fascinating ocean creatures
Thank you to Elaine and Pheobe for the love, & Pheobe for the nice compliments, much appreciated!
Thank you DejaVu for loving this special Juliana seahorse of mine, it looks to be something you would see on the ocean floor!
Many thanks Faith for the love of this Juliana seahorse, very pleased that you liked this and always grateful for your kindness
Ralph thanks so much for the love for this seahorse, I'm always thinking about you & hoping things are going well
Thank you very much clockerman for the love for this Juliana seahorse, I only have a few by this co but they're really pretty & I'm so glad you enjoyed this one
DejaVu thank you so much for loving this Juliana seahorse, I don't have much Juliana because I usually check with that website for verification, not too confident with unsigned pieces. Your Juliana collection is fabulous I hope you have more to come :)
