Napier’s Textured Surfaces Are Noted in 1995

Fashion notes in 1995 by Women’s Wear Daily indicated that textured metal surfaces were the incoming mode. However, smooth surfaces were expected to make a comeback. The Napier necklace featured in this editorial satisfied both by combing hand-textured metal flanked by highly-polished surfaces on crescent-shaped links.
Shown here is the matching bracelet to Napier’s necklace featured in the WWD 1955 article. This was part of Napier’s collection featured by Amos Parrish. Amos Parrish was a renowned fashion expert who’s company held fashion clinics for the leading department stores.
