Mostly, the brand specializes in creating high-end accessories by affordable means, making it a top choice among fashionistas. The company was founded by two brothers with the same idea – namely, Jay and Michael Chernow. The brand was initially called “Mono craft Products,” as they made silver and gold-plated plates to add to women’s handbags. These bags were very popular, and quite known for their durability. With that in mind, nearing the end of the 1930s, Mono craft’s focus began to shift. From that point, they started making mostly jewelry. This was a direct result of the 1920s economic crisis when women could no longer afford expensive jewelry. As a result, more and more women started buying costume jewelry pieces instead. Several years later, starting in 1937, Mono crafts became Monet, and they began to make costume jewelry exclusively. With time, the brand changed quite a lot – reflecting the styles of the era.
