The 1928 Jewelry Company in 1974

The 1928 Jewelry Co. was founded by Melvyn Bernie in 1968, and is now one of the largest and last-standing jewelry manufacturers in the U.S. They specialize in making antique reproductions, handmade in the European tradition.

I really love this black and white ad from 1974. It evokes a Victorian/Edwardian vibe, along with 1970s Boho style. I remember buying several 1928 pieces in the 70s and 80s, and loved wearing them. It’s nice to know this beautiful jewelry is still being made today!
