Miriam Haskell Jewelry
This lovely collection of vintage Miriam Haskell jewelry from the 1930s-1970s features designs in the high-quality components – pearls, beads, and other unique materials – that have defined her brand. Many by Frank Hess, chief designer until 1960, are included. In addition to tailored, classic necklaces, earrings, brooches, and bracelets, you will find whimsical jewels in surprising materials. For example, during World War II, when components from Japan and Europe were not available, Haskell used American-made plastics and natural materials (such as wood). The only pieces in this boutique made more recently than the 1950s are by this maker.
