Find of the week:




Louis Rousselet Glass and Faux Pearl
Earrings



Louis Rousselet Early 1920s ~ France


Louis Rousselet is thought to be one of the premier bead makers of the 20th century. He learned his craft early in Paris and soon he began to produce handmade beads of very high quality at his own company. His beads and faux pearls were soon noticed by the stars of the day including Josephine Baker and the fashion conscious French ladies as well. The company naturally grew and soon became on of the largest worldwide supplier of handmade beads.

Rousselet produced opulent glass beads, beads made out of Galalith, simulated pearls. The shapes were interesting and the combinations unusual.
Some of the jewelry was marked with only a paper hang tag so it is possible to find unsigned Rousselet costume jewelry.

The earrings above are marked "FRANCE". They are attributed to Rousselet by construction and materials used.

Rousselet earrings have a different clip than we are used to seeing. It looks more like the finding found on a scarf clip than on an earring. See the second image above.

Signature Designs/Techniques: Handmade glass beads, Galalith beads, fusing, bakelite, simulated pearls.
