                      Napier jewelry as featured in WWD 1928

                      At The Napier Book, we find the jewelry of the 1920s enchanting. Here is a rendering from WWD in 1928. The designs are magnificent!

                      Following the jewelry left to right, the editorial reads:
                      “Gold metal choker completed by two golden balls, which unscrew, effecting a concealed closing. Directly opposite is the bracelet to match.

                      In the center an oddly shaped pendant in simulated semiprecious stone colorings is swung from a necklace composed of interesting gold metal links.

                      Below, an elaborate type of pendant combining stones of various shapes. Tiny silver finished cylinders frame the aquamarine colored pendant from a triple chain necklace. The bracelet matches the necklace directly opposite.

                      This lovely Napier moonglow brooch matches the necklace and earring set on page 272 of The Napier Co.: Defining 20th Century American Costume Jewelry. The necklace was featured in “The Charleston Daily” November 16, 1955. It was also available in silver-plate with blue moonglow cabochons.

                      This brooch is a lovely vintage c. 1950s Napier mesh flower … or perhaps a sea anemone. It reminds me of the Belle of Barmera giant dinner plate dahlia–a large bigger-than-life flower. The piece measures 5″ when spread flat.
