Amazing Adornments Jewel of the Month -EUGENE




EUGENE

Founder (s): Eugene Schultz as the Eugene Jewelry Company ~ 1950s to the 1960s


The dates listed above are a best guess and it is thought the company was based in New York City, NY, USA.

The story used to go something like, Eugene was a designer for Miriam Haskell prior to opening his own company. According to the book Miriam Haskell Jewelry by Cathy Gordon and Sheila Pamfiloff, he did not work for Haskell. After his death, the book states, that Eugene's sample maker joined Haskell. Rumors are hard to quell once they get started.

Eugene did indeed have his own company. Eugene used similar techniques as Haskell, DeMario and Robert so naturally the jewelry would be similar.

His company was not in operation for too long and subsequently did not manufacture a lot of costume jewelry. This jewelry is not easy to find and can be costly.

Many pieces are not marked.

Techniques: Beaded and pearl jewelry of high quality. Fancy clasps.
