Modern Designs using Aurora Borealis Rhinestones by: Anonymous
Hi Linda!
it's easy to upload a photo on Antique jewelry Investor! Re-submit question on general jewelry forum and press button underneath that says "upload a file" - this will return a list of files - choose photo file of the Wolcott bracelet on your computer. It might be easier if you were to save the photo on the desktop, then it's easy to find the file to upload.
Your jewelry sounds beautiful. The heavy metal could be brass, as I believe Wolcott used her artist license to great effect with this metal.
The Aurora Borealis rhinestones (AB) in the bracelet also indicate a modern design. The process of making AB coating on crystal was still in the early phases in the early 1950's by the Swarovski Company.
The process progressed to some success in 1953, but it wasn't until 1955 that a gentleman by the name of Manfred Swarovski perfected the AB stone. Swarovski worked closely with Christian Dior, and they were the first to have access to the Aurora Borealis rhinestone sometimes called the "rainbow" stone.
Best Wishes, Antique Jewelry Investor

The braclet and earrings I have are of a very heavy metal and large aurora borealis stones, it looks to be of wedding jewelry, the hallmark is in script on the back. I wish I was able to send a photo, not really aware of how to do that at this time, will have to look into it. Thankyou so much for your time, it is greatly appreciated.
