A Trifari reunion






Call me a jewelry detective. Call me a matchmaker. I found them two months and 100s of miles apart and now here they are, soon to be happily reunited in the shop - a 1950s Trifari simulated pearl bracelet and necklace with rhinestone tulip clasps. The happy pair is celebrating their reunion by snuggling together in a compartment of my jewelry box. Whoever buys one, please buy the other. Let's keep these two together!

Amazing!

I was just thinking that the Laurel Sprig brooch and Pine Brough earrings could make a convenient set...

How exciting! Also, I had the same thought regarding the Laurel & Pine pairing.

Oh that is awesome! You must have been so excited by this :)

Beautiful! I can't believe you found the necklace and bracelet. I love the touch of the tulip clasps. Here's hoping they find a good home!

My mother has this same set, given to her in the late 60s/early 70s, I think. I wondered what you consider the value of the set to be?

Hi Martha - well, I really don't know about value but I can tell you that I sold them (separately, unfortunately) for about $100 total. If your set is in great condition it might be a bit more than that.
