For anyone interested in collecting costume jewelry, in particular, Miriam Haskell costume jewelry, the jewelry book, The Jewels of Miriam Haskell by D. F., Cera, belongs on your bookshelf.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this beautiful book dedicated to the jewels of Miriam Haskell! It took a great deal of research on the author Cera's part to verify pieces of costume jewelry as authentic jewelry by Haskell because Haskell never registered her designs although she began signing her pieces in 1950. Miriam Haskell's trademark was not received until 1988, 64 years after Haskell began designing!
The author had to rely on advertisements, photographs of famous movie stars shown wearing Haskell jewelry, newspapers and magazines, etc. It takes a lot of detective work to identify Miriam Haskell Costume Jewelry and this book is a fantastic tool to help you do just that.
happy costume jewelry collecting! MARIA If you would like to join the Antique Jewelry Investor community and stay up to date with all the latest Antique jewelry news, click here....

"NEW" Miriam Haskell Jewelry by: Yvonne
Sylvia I'm not convinced these pieces are Miriam Haskell. I believe Haskell signed her name in full or not at all.
Haskell is being made again using the original designs. If you wouldn't mind waiting as I would like to get the opinion of the Miriam Haskell expert who is currently busy at an antique show, in order for us to check the retailer who stocks the "new" Miriam Haskell pieces and let you know more about the marks.
