1940 Trifari Red & Clear Rhinestone Set-Necklace/Bracelet/Earrings. A. Philippe

These floral rhinestone designs from the 1940's are what I believe Trifari does best! Designed by the master, Alfred Philippe, the floral motif is an intricate pave surface of sparkling clear rhinestones with Ruby Red open backed glass stones at the center of each flower.

The stems of the flowers are lightly accented with red enamel. The necklace & bracelet are signed with the Crown over the T of Trifari. I have not been able to find any makers mark on the obviously matched earrings. These might be the exception to the rule that all Trifari is signed. Overall condition of these pieces are excellent considering the age. All stones are present with a few barely noticeable cloudy stones here & there. The rhodium plated metal is in superb condition with no nicks or scratches. Necklace-16 long with hook closure. Central piece of necklace is 2" x 1 1/2". Bracelet-7/8" wide, 7 1/2" long with fold over clasp. Earrings-clip on, 3/4" x 7/8".
