| The name Coro is a contraction of an earlier trade name COHN & ROSENBERGER and they've been in business since 1902. During the 1930's and the great depression, Coro built a huge plant in Providence, RI and after WWII found itself very profitable and surged ahead of the competition. In the 1940's, the highest price line of jewelry Coro produced was under the name COROCRAFT and they offset that with less expensive jewelry that could be found in 5 and dime stores. Adolph Katz was the master of the movable jewelry that Coro produced. His jewelry moved, it quivered on springs, etc. and it was very well made. Katz also designed crowns with multi-colored rhinestones in honor of the wedding of Princess Elizabeth of England. Katz was also a fine businessman and helped run the Coro factory. |

Vintage Coro Brillion Stone Pendant and Earrings in Original Box. The pendant is so beautiful. I do not believe the earrings are original to the pendant. The stones are not cut the same...the pendant has a tag that reads brillion stones which reflects the incredible faceting of the crystal. Dog tooth setting. The earrings are not cut the same nor do they have a dog tooth setting. The earrings were purchased with this so I'm leaving then with it. They are pierced wires. The pendant measures 3/4" in diameter - chain 16". All stones are set open backed. Excellent condition. Original Coro box. A rare find.

PS844 Price: $20.00

1948 Coro Family Album Locket. Bejeweled with all the artistry of antique watch cases... this fob-locket is a real Heirloom of tomorrow. (This is a quote from the 1948 ad). Just press the catch and out springs four spacious frames for your favorite pictures. This has never been used and has the original Coro hang tag. My mother had one of these and I've inherited it. It has pictures of my two brothers, and my father and I in it - mine is black. It's priceless! This piece does NOT have the plastic covers that go under the frames. I do not know why. But it IS an easy fix. Just cut circles of plastic or laminate and cover your pics before inserting them under the gold frames. Also, there are only 3 gold frames that hold the pics in place... not 4. This must have been tucked in a drawer somewhere all these years. Measures 2-1/2" x 1". There are tiny little seed pearls set into a snowflake goldtone pattern that is atop white enamel. There is a faux pearl set into the Fleur-de-Lis pin top. (The fleur-de-lis (or fleur-de-lys; plural: fleurs-de-lis) is a stylized design of an iris flower which is used both decoratively and symbolically.) This is a rare find... I've seen two of these over the last 10 years.

PS100 Price: $22.00

A wonderful example of Coro Sterling Craft of the 1940's. This is a sterling pin covered with a red gold finish and it has a branch with two flowers...one with a clear pronged RS in the center and the other has three marquis shaped emerald colored RS's pronged. From the branch hangs a chain with a heart and in the center of the heart is a handset green emerald round RS. The pin measures 2" across and hangs down 2-3/4". I have shown in the larger picture, the wear this pin is showing. It's basically around the leaves on the branch and after 50 some years in age, wear is to be expected. I'd rate this pin good condition.
PS102 Price: $33.00

Measuring only 1-1/2" tall x 1" wide...this is marked Sterling and Coro....and it's a sweet little Deer Pin! Looks to be vintage 50's. Excellent condition.
PS064 Price: $24.00

Lovely Corocraft Sterling Flower pin...with foiled back red rhinestones and clear rhinestones. I noticed the foiling is showing signs of wear...but it doesn't take away the beauty of the pin. It's noticeable when held up to the light...but anyway...it measures 1-1/2" in diameter. It's such a nice pin...if purchased you might want to consider having a few of the stone replaced. See my links for who can do this!
