N&N specializes in the classic period from the 1920s to the 1970s, when great designers - some trained in the fine jewelry houses of Paris - created the most magnificent costume jewelry ever seen - when jewels of glass and base metal rivalled artistically those made with precious stones. With thousands of items for sale, you can always find gorgeous additions to your collection.
