Sarah Coventry Midnight Magic Big Dark Topaz Glass Bracelet

This unsigned bracelet, a magnificent piece much beloved in the world of vintage costume jewelry, was produced by Sarah Coventry in 1957. Most pieces of this set are unsigned, going out as hostess gifts. The set is featured in several books, including Signed Beauties of Costume Jewelry Vol. II, by Marcia Brown, page 150. It is also featured on page 271in Julia Carroll's book, Collecting Costume Jewelry 101.

The japanned framework features giant rectangle beveled glass stones that look black in some lights but are actually a very deep, smoky topaz. The window pane framework makes it appear, from the back, that there are four stones in each frame, but it is  single, a stone specially made that would be impossible to replace except from another piece. Around each 1 1/2" windowpane and on the claps, bright pink rhinestones are set in gorgeous contrast. The bracelet comes complete with safety chain and clasps at 7". This one is in Very Good+ condition, with sound finish and clean bright stones with no damage to the foil on the back. $75

Autumn Splendor Dark Pink Swirl Lucite Leaf Pin

A favorite pin by Sarah Coventry back from 1975 is Autumn Splendor, but with that heart melting marbled dark pink color, this jewel must be springtime and summer splendor as well. Guaranteed to brighten any complexion, and what could be better than the dash of happy color it brings when you wear it.

This is a book piece brooch, featured on page 151 of Mid-Century Plastic Jewelry, by Susan Klein. The earrings are hard to find; I promise to be on the lookout for them. Meantime, enjoy the brooch in Excellent condition. $28

Sarah Coventry Galaxy Brooch & Earrings

Circa 1964, this medieval revival cross motif is one of the loveliest Sarah sets, never widely distributed because it was a "Hostess set," meant as a gift for those who agreed to have a jewelry party with a specific amount of sales. The beaded goldtone openwork cross setting holds beautiful multicolored cabochon teardrops. I cannot tell if these are glass or hard, heavy plastic. Whatever it is, gold foil is marbled within. The accompanying faux pearls and aurora borealis rhinestones make the brooch and matching clip backs a feminine treasure! A big set, the brooch measures 3" either way, and the earring are about 1 1/2". All pieces are marked (c)SARAHCOV. The brooch is in Excellent condition; the earrings are Very Good. $38
