Initially known for fragrances, it pioneered the opportunity for women to earn income by pursuing their passions. Representatives offered cosmetics and perfumes, and in 1963, a piece of jewelry was included as a gift with purchase. In 1970, due to numerous customer requests, AVON launched its own jewelry line – AVON Jewelry. The company's first collection was called The Precious Pretenders. Extensive advertising campaigns in the US made these decorative pieces incredibly popular among women. AVON Jewelry secured a significant position among favored jewelry manufacturers. Collectors of vintage costume jewelry particularly appreciate pieces released in the 1970s. Notable brands that collaborated with AVON include: Ungaro and Swarovski, Centennial, Trifari, and WN. In the 1990s, Hollywood film star Elizabeth Taylor collaborated with the company's designers on several jewelry lines named in her honor. Even today, AVON Jewelry continues to delight women with its quality and affordable prices.
