Description: Beautiful Demi Parure attributed to Alice Caviness. Set of clip on earrings with matching brooch. Gunmetal tone set with massive red center rhinestone, deep sapphire navettes, deep amethyst chatons and lavender & white givre rounded chatons. This set came to me from two separate estate sales many months apart from the other. The pin clasp hardware is a rollover catch mechanism in good working condition. There is some wear to the silver finish on the back. Normal for a piece this age. Likewise the earring clips function properly and there is some wear to the gunmetal finish. Considering the age of these pieces they are in great vintage condition. I had my doubts but wanted to be sure that this set wasn’t Schreiner. So I showed them to Henry Schreiner’s grandson for verification. He said they were NOT from them. Which brought me back to my initial gut feeling; that they are most likely by Alice Caviness. This attribution is in part to large center stone, which she was very fond of implementing in her designs, the unusual color combo and the pieces over all construction. Normally Caviness signed her pieces with a few exceptions. In one case she rarely signed all pieces when they were sold as a Parure. It was usually the necklace which would bear her signature. Sometimes it was the earrings or just one earring. As one might expect as the decades rolled on most of these sets would get split up. This leaving a number of her pieces unsigned. Note: the last two pics in my pictures is another example of her large center stone designs. The reference pieces are signed. This, like all pieces that I sell, unless otherwise noted, is cleaned and ready to wear! Please feel free to ask any questions or request additional images. Please use pics as part of description as I cannot accept returns. I can combine shipping if interested in more than one item. Message me and let me know you’re interested in additional item(s). I will be able to send a combined invoice with adjusted shipping cost based on the weight. International buyers please note: I have opted out of eBay’s new international shipping program. I will continue to sell to international buyers however, the shipping option will be through USPS first class shipping. All international packages that require taxes, additional fees/duties and or necessary additional customs paperwork are the buyers responsibility. Due to ever-evolving global circumstances, certain countries will not receive packages from the US. Please confirm that your location is able to receive packages from the US. If unsure how to do that please contact me and I will be happy to check for you. You must also be sure that Ebay has your full name and address listed using the Roman alphabet (in English). I will pack well and ship USPS first class package 3-5 days after receiving payment confirmation. If you would prefer an alternate method of shipping? Please contact me before the closing of the last item you intend to purchase so that I can make the proper adjustments. Again, thank you for looking at my items. If there’s anything I can do to answer questions? Please don’t hesitate to ask.
