Pennino Brothers has been added to Chapter Two of Collecting Costume Jewelry 404. Originally from Naples, Italy, the three brothers officially started Pennino Brothers in 1926 as a family run business. They closed in 1966. The jewelry designs are often distinctive and recognizable. I hope you enjoy it.
One more brand, Trifari, will be added to Chapter Two, Part I before I begin adapting Chapter Three for the website. Chapter Two, Part 2, discussing classically collectible brands that began after World War II, will be added later.
For fun, even though the temperatures are in the 90s again today, I walked the local flea market and found a few things. Goodness, just what I NEED – more jewelry to research!
It was a good time. I hope you are having a fun “collecting” Saturday, too.
