As a collector and author I spend
time each day "watching" the costume jewelry market. The
following observations of jewelry trends are my opinions.
I've added a date to each observation because the "trends" I
observe are constantly fluctuating and evolving.
This page is just for fun - not an investment guide. Please do not risk any of your hard-earned money based on my personal observations. |

9/2/09 Takahashi bird pins are doing well. Last week several wonderful examples sold on eBay for approximately $70.00 - $170.00 not including shipping. More and more collectors are discovering the "wonder" that is Takahashi and snatching up these historic works of art for their collections. They are a personal favorite of mine - I wish I had the funds to purchase them all! |

9/2/09 Alice Caviness jewelry - the glitzy bold pieces - are rising in value. The small sterling silver, enameled pieces imported from Germany, are also doing well. I love the combinations of rhinestone colors and shapes used in many Caviness designs. In my experience, Caviness jewelry is often beautifully made exhibiting nice quality construction.
