Due to the era, women were largely limited to manual labor in factories or farms. In 1886, a businessman named David McConnell proposed an unprecedented idea: "to employ women to sell their perfumes and skincare products door-to-door." This was the origin of Avon. Later, in 1939, out of admiration for Shakespeare, the company was renamed Avon, after a river in Shakespeare's hometown. In the late 1920s, AVON launched its AVON jewelry line, later renamed Avon Products, Inc. AVON was renamed Avon Products Inc. in 1939, selling door-to-door through "Avon Ladies," and was adept at hosting makeup tutorials, tea parties, and similar events, much like the Avon we know today. AVON consistently marketed reasonably priced, high-quality jewelry to American housewives through their product catalogs. AVON has collaborated with fashion jewelry companies or designers, such as: Trifari, Kenneth Jay Lane, Billy D. Williams, Barrera, Elizabeth Taylor... AVON vintage jewelry is highly collectible. In addition to its affordable price, the designs are novel and modern, pairing exceptionally well with "Western" attire. A vintage jewelry dealer in the US once told me: "I remember the AVON days of my childhood, how exciting it was when the 'Avon Lady' stopped by my mother's house and left the latest catalog! We would pore over it for hours, wishing we owned all the beautiful jewelry in it." While most people associate AVON with costume jewelry, they also produced fine jewelry. The "Avon Lady" is the precursor to today's "Avon Representative." As early as the 1940s and 50s, Avon used this model to sell jewelry, perfumes, and cosmetics. .. ★ This is a piece of Western antique vintage jewelry, not a new item.

Never wear jewelry while bathing. ■ Taiwan's climate is humid. If you do not wear your vintage jewelry for an extended period, wipe it with a dry cloth and then place it in a sealed bag to prevent air exposure. ■ For necklaces, store the pendant and chain separately. You can place the "pendant" in a small sealed bag, and then place both the pendant bag and the chain into a larger sealed bag for storage.
