A bit of info on Coro Jewellery:

"Coro jewellery holds a place of pride among vintage jewellery brands. The Coro brand has been synonymous with authentic vintage jewellery for over a century now. Not many vintage jewellery brands can boast of such solid credentials. This vintage jewellery brand has been in existence since the beginning of the 20th century and continues to charm women with its mesmerizing designs.

Coro Jewelry was founded in 1901 in New York. It has a presence in New York and Providence. It went on to become one of the largest jewellery companies in America. The company expanded to Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, Toronto, England and Mexico. The company had a strong presence in the U.K and continues to enjoy a vintage status here. Many well known designers have worked with Coro Jewelry since their inception. Some big names associated with Coro designs include Gene Verecchio, Robert Geissman, Massa Raimond, Oscar Placco, and Francois. Coro stopped producing new pieces in the 1980s. The pieces in circulation now are collector's items and the older the piece, the greater its worth.

Nothing says elegance more than Coro jewellery.

Coro Jewelry has many themes. The most sought after pieces are duettes of birds and butterflies. You will also find their flower motifs very popular among buyers. Coro jewelry represents timelessness. The elegance of each piece is definitely worth the collector's item tag it bears. If you want to buy Coro jewelry for your wedding, then try some of their pristine bracelets and brooches. These will complement your wedding dress perfectly and add a dash of sparkle on your wedding day. The rhinestone collections are perfect for gifts as well. Most of these are one of a kind piece." It's very rare and hard to find a full set from this fabulous company that once was a heyday in the 1940s and 50's in department stores. I personally LOVE Coro for it's affordableness, styles, colours and this one is surely a collector's item. Circa 1946's this set is rare to find together with the red stones for the birds in flight. A true collector's item!
