Vintage Monet USA Flat Chain and Cylindrical Silver Bracelet

▰▰▰▰▰▰MONET▰▰▰▰▰▰ Established in 1927, Monet is undoubtedly a classic brand that holds an irreplaceable position in the world-renowned fashion scene. Founded by Russian Jewish immigrants Michael and Joseph Chernow in Rhode Island as Monocraft Products Co., they initially specialized in creating lettered ornaments for handbags before venturing into jewelry production in 1929. The Monet brand first appeared in 1937. Its popularity stems not only from its unique vintage style but also from several revolutionary patented jewelry structural innovations. Furthermore, their proprietary plating technology ensured a flawless, smooth metal surface, explaining why the plating on Monet collections remains exceptionally well-preserved. Before 1955, many unscrupulous manufacturers directly copied Monet's designs without regard for material quality. This prompted Monet to start marking their jewelry with a trademark. In 1969, General Mills took over the brand. Under their management, Monet even collaborated with YSL. Since 1984, the company has changed ownership multiple times. In 2000, it was acquired by Liz Claiborne. Consequently, pieces from before 1979 are particularly valuable for collectors. ▰▰▰▰▰▰VINTAGE JEWELRY DETAILS▰▰▰▰▰▰ Brand Mark: MONET© Era: 1960s ~ 1980s Material: Plated Alloy Dimensions: Flat chain width approx. 1.4 cm, length approx. 17 cm; Cylindrical width approx. 0.8 cm, length approx. 17.8 cm Condition: Good, with minor signs of age Notes: Features a safety chain; please indicate in your order if you wish for it to be removed. ▰▰▰▰▰▰ABOUT THE VINTAGE JEWELRY KIOSK▰▰▰▰▰▰ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51673204030_863373c623_c.jpg ✧I✧ The curator personally selects jewelry and vintage pieces from approximately the 1920s to the 1990s, sourced from the USA, Canada, UK, Spain, Germany, Italy, Japan, and other regions. ✧II✧ These vintage pieces have journeyed through decades.
