Vintage Juliana Style D&E Rhinestone Statement Brooch Huge Multi-Color Mid Centu
Exceptional vintage mid-century rhinestone statement brooch attributed to Juliana (DeLizza & Elster) style construction. Features a dramatic large oval jet-black glass center surrounded by vibrant emerald, ruby, sapphire, pink, amber, and aurora borealis stones in mixed cuts. Heavy gold-tone setting with open backs and prong-set stones, exhibiting the depth and craftsmanship associated with high-end 1950s designer costume jewelry. Unsigned, as many Juliana pieces were, but unmistakable in quality and construction. This is a mid-century multi-stone rhinestone statement brooch, circa late 1950s-early 1960s, very much in the Juliana (D&E) / Regency / high-end unsigned designer lane. Key tells I'm seeing from your photos. Open-back, foil-backed stones (classic quality construction). Heavy gold-tone setting, not flimsy plate.
Large central oval jet/black diamond glass. Mixed stone cuts: navette, pear, oval, round. High-contrast color palette (emerald, ruby, sapphire, pink, amber, aurora borealis). Prong work + layered depth (not flat costume). C-clasp era construction (late 50s-early 60s) This is not Trifari, Coro, or Weiss quality - it's a tier above typical signed mass-market pieces.
