Bidding starts in 0d 3h 2m

Beautiful vintage estate jewelry selection featuring a rare, carded set of mid-century clip-on earrings retailed by Canada's iconic department store, Eaton's. This lot is perfect for vintage fashion enthusiasts, collectors of mid-century costume jewelry, or anyone looking to add classic elegance to their wardrobe. Eaton's Earring Set: Round, brilliant-cut Austrian crystal rhinestones set in a silver-tone floral/halo cluster. Retains the original retail display card reading "EATON / 115 / Austrian Crystal / Cristal Autrichien" Faceted Crystal Necklace: A striking geometric strand composed of alternating round and cube-cut clear crystal glass spacer beads that bounce light brilliantly. Faux Pearl Strand: A timeless double-twisted or multi-strand cream-colored glass faux pearl necklace mimicking natural baroque pearls. Accent Ring: A gold-tone bypass-style adjustable fashion ring accented with a central cluster of rhinestones. While The T. Eaton Co. Limited (founded in 1869 by Timothy Eaton) was a massive Canadian department store chain rather than an independent jewelry designer, they were world-renowned for sourcing high-end goods to feature in their luxury catalogs and flagship department stores. During the mid-20th century, Eaton's partnered extensively with elite European manufacturers and prominent Canadian costume jewelry designers like Gustave Sherman to produce top-tier fashion accessories under store placement labels. The inclusion of Austrian Crystals on the card directly links these pieces to the post-war boom of the late 1940s and 1950s. During this era, Austrian glass cutters (heavily dominated by the innovation of Swarovski machinery) flooded North American department stores with premium, precision-cut lead glass stone.
