Vintage Signed Eisenberg Amber and Smoke Iced Demi- parure



This is a classic Eisenberg set with pave icing in gold- tone metal. You can tell this is a high- end piece when you look at the plating and the quality of the stones chosen way back sometime during the 1950s.

Vintage Eisenberg Set

The clear sections are known as pave
icing
or  iced and they are often seen used on Eisenberg jewels. In fact, I would call them a signature design technique.  I have heard it said that the sections look like frosting or ribbons.


The rhinestones are deep amber and smoke. Sometimes smoky gray rhinestones are referred to as Black Diamond.  It is a color that I believe really took of when they were used on older Weiss pieces.


It is a well known fact that Eisenberg jewelry is amongst the very best produced and the high prices for the sterling and older pieces reflect their popularity.  I have noticed that the 1970s enamel pieces are also rising in price.


Their jewels have longevity as does the
company. They were originally a clothing retailer and shortly thereafter began
producing jewelry.  As of this writing, they are still in business.
