so if a copyright sign (C in a circle) near the Schiaparelli signature logo then means it's a fake, does that mean if there is NO Copyright sign near the signature it is authentic? Thank you.

so sorry by: Anonymous
Sorry to tell you this is not an authentic Schiaparelli. This is a company that made fake Schiaparelli pieces and were in fact sued for it. Whenever you see the schiaparelli with the copyright sign it is most assuredly a fake.

Schiaparelli - Fake or Genuine Baroque Pearl Necklace by: Anonymous
Hi Elizabeth thank you for writing in about the following vintage costume jewelry question:
"My husband purchased a Schiaparelli Baroque Pearl Necklace for me. I am worried it is a fake and wanted to inquire about it's authenticity and value."
apparently, from what I can gather, early 1930s Schiaparelli pieces were unsigned and you hardly ever see them today. Pieces in the late 1930s were signed "schiaparelli" in LOWER case block letters up until 1949 and "Schiaparelli" in script after 1949, and "Designed in Paris--Created in America" 1949.
