I have a tiny showcase of vintage costume jewelry at our local antique gallery, that need’s spiffed up at least monthly. I never have time to cruise the aisles, but last month took a quick spin. Didn’t have my loupe on me, and I don’t see that well even with my glasses! But I could see the rivets and could tell nothing was missing!
Much to my surprise when cleaning it up, I found the Kramer of New York mark. It’s my first signed Kramer piece and in one of my favorite colors. Of course, I then spent the day hunting to no avail for the matching bracelet and earrings. It measures 16” and is in awesome condition. Yay!
Very beautiful Kramer necklace!!! The design pearls and rhinestones are a fabulous combination. Great find!!
It's just gorgeous! And so unusual. Glad you found it!

Nice to see the prongs on the rhinestones. gotta love that kramer !~
FreshAir Thank you! I loved the Pearl/rhinestone combo also. There is no peeling on any of the pearls and that was amazing in itself!
Andreamw Thank you! It was a fluke find...those are often the best and the one’s we remember most fondly!
PhilDMorris LOL...prongs and rivets. Don’t know why I’m so fascinated with rivets. But prongs are always a must have. So delighted with my first “signed” Kramer piece.
I posted a sterling and clear rhinestone parure awhile back ago. Eileen said it looks like unmarked Kramer to her and wishful thinking on my part. All those tiny prong set rhinestone’s took effort and pride in workmanship
Ms.CrystalShip I knew you loved Kramer, Eileen. And Laguna too if I recall correctly. Thank you for keeping an eye out for any matching pieces! I did find one full parure on EBay with pink rhinestones. I’ve searched Ruby Lane, Etsy, Morning Glory, Posh, Bonanza...every small vintage site I can think of to no avail. So I believe you are correct this may be a rarity.
