Coro (Corocraft and Vendome) Coro, Inc began operations in 1901. Two partners, Emanuel Cohen and Gerald Rosenberg, began the Coro jewelry company in 1901. In 1943, the partners incorporated and the name of the company was changed to Coro, Inc. The name Coro comes from the combination of the first two letters of their last names. In 1929, the partners were able to build a new jewelry factory in Providence, Rhode Island where Adolph Katz oversaw the manufacturing of Coro jewelry. In 1937 Coro began using the name Coro Craft for high end jewelry. This name is found printed Corocraft, one word, on jewelry produced after World War II. In 1944 Coro began producing jewelry marked Vendome which was named after a city in France. *Approximate Measurements: Length and Width - 1 1/4 Inches *Condition: Very good vintage condition.
