TRIFARI Southampton 1959 Set White Turquoise Baroque Seed Gold Alfred Philippe
This Absolutely Stunning TRIFARI "Southampton" Set (Featuring: White Baroque Glass Pearls & Tirquoise Glass Seed Pearls, all on Gold-Trifanium), was designed by Alfred Philippe in 1959. This Beautiful Set is accompanied by a Vintage "Jewels by Trifari" presentation box and would be a Wonderful addition to any Vintage Jewelry Collection.. This Set was featured in a Vintage "Jewels by Trifari" advertisement, "The Freshest Fashion of Spring, " as well as featured in Julia C. Carroll's Book "Collecting Costume Jewelry 202 - Second Edition, " on page #268... I believe these Pieces are in overall GOOD Vintage condition, consistent with age and wear.
I see no major or obvious flaws, the metals are shiny and the Decorations appear vibrant. Please see photos as they are part of the overall description.... If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please message me.. These Pieces are Costume Jewelry.
"Costume Jewelry, " is also known as inexpensive (or Fashion) jewelry that imitates the look of fine jewelry. All decorations, rhinestones and metals are FAUX.
I have MANY other TRIFARI Sets to view.. This particular Set was not part of my Grandmothers original collection.
