Juliana Leaf Ice Blue with Scooped Out AB Coated Stones Vintage Brooch 1960s
CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE ONLINE - MAY BE PURCHASED AT YVONNE MARIE'S ANTIQUE MALL, 152 S. SECOND STREET, DECATUR, INDIANA
Definitely a dazzler, this is a confirmed DeLizza & Elster (D&E) aka Juliana vintage brooch from the early 1960s. Very light blue or ice blue (they are so light blue that in some light they almost look clear) navette stones form the leaf shape and set in the center are 3 AB (aurora borealis) coated “scooped out” stones. AB rhinestones set around the scooped out stones add a little extra pizzazz and bling and, of course, the stem is covered with more, smaller AB stones.
This brooch can be found on page 239 of “Juliana Jewelry Reference” by Anne Pitman where it is shown with pink navettes.
Measurements: The leaf is 2 7/8” long and about 1 ½” wide.
Signed: Unsigned, as Juliana jewelry was identified by hang tags. Confirmed on Is It Juliana: Item Reference Number: 589, 3462
Condition: Excellent condition. All stones are present and sparkle brightly. Safety clasp is in fine working order.
