De Lizza and Elster [D&E] jewelry is some of the most spectacular costume jewelry on the market today. D&E, the makers of the renowned “Juliana” line also produced jewelry for other companies.
The pieces were signed only with a paper hang tag usually and if they piece was for a client, the hangtag most likely was not included.
So, how do you know if a spectacular piece of jewelry you just purchased is D&E?
Join the Discovering Juliana Group at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/discoveringjulianajewelry/
You can upload your images of jewelry that you suspect is D&E Juliana. The group will take a look at your piece and a poll will be taken. If the group thinks it is then it is added to a confirmed folder, if the group does not think so or they are unsure, your item will be sent for Mr. De Lizza’s confirmation! How cool is that?
There are several folders that contain confirmed pieces. So many that sometimes all it takes is a peek at these folders to confirm your item is Juliana. There are folders for construction techniques used, jewelry that is often confused with D&E and I bet I am forgetting some.
This group is dynamic and a whole lot of fun. Besides having a confirmed piece is so much better than saying “Juliana Style” don’t you think?
