Collecting Miriam Haskell Jewelry
Our group has been designed for collectors and dealers alike to help assist in the verification of the genuine works of Miriam Haskell, and also to acquaint us more fully with the talented Designers..The main goal of our group is to build archives and a database of information on the beautiful jewelry manufactured by Miriam Haskell.. Due to the increasing popularity of vintage jewelry there are some who mistakenly attach the terms Miriam Haskell style, or Haskell style to any piece that has faux pearls and filigree setting with the objective of getting a higher resale price and this is in part due to the increasing interest and value of Miriam Haskell jewelry. It also wasn't a style exclusive to Miriam Haskell. Other manufacturers and Designers copied the same style of jewelry, and many of those who copied the style signed their own pieces. The jewelry manufactured reflected the fashion trends and styles for that era. We encourage you to purchase the book Miriam Haskell Jewelry by Cathy Gordon and Shelia Pamfiloff to educate yourself on what genuine Miriam Haskell jewelry looks like and how it was constructed. It can be purchased at Amazon books here is a link to show the book http://tinyurl.com/38qldk "Miriam Haskell Jewelry". This book will prove invaluable in your quest to learn all you can about Miriam Haskell jewelry.. Our Group has also assembled a photo archive of confirmed Miriam Haskell Jewelry, both Signed and Unsigned. Educating yourself and examining pieces of jewelry that are confirmed or verified as Miriam Haskell will provide you with a starting point. Come join us on our journey.
