One hook without beads (see images) 🕰️ Historical Era This brooch dates to the 1960s, the golden age of Juliana jewelry, a brand name used by DeLizza & Elster (D&E). During this decade, Juliana pieces became highly sought after for their bold sparkle, luxurious materials, and unmistakable hand-assembled construction. 🏛️ About Juliana (DeLizza & Elster) DeLizza & Elster operated in New York from the late 1940s through the early 1970s. Juliana jewelry was never signed, making identification dependent on design elements, stone settings, and construction techniques—qualities clearly present in this brooch. 💎 Design & Stones Brilliant faceted crystal beads in clear and aurora borealis finishes Multi-faceted round and ribbed crystals that maximize light reflection Cluster-style floral form, popular in high-fashion costume jewelry Warm gold-tone metal framework, typical of D&E designs The shimmering AB (Aurora Borealis) coating, introduced in the late 1950s, gives the crystals their signature rainbow glow—perfectly capturing the glamour of the era.
