Sarah Coventry  |  1949 - 1950

Arctic Pearl is one of the very first designs offered by Sarah Coventry. Each beautifully framed white plastic cabochon is 1" long. One of numerous anomalies in Sarah Coventry jewelry, Arctic Pearl is not pearlescent. The necklace is 17 1/2" long, and the bracelet is 7 1/4" long. Unsigned, but shown in 1950 documentation. The white and gold version of the black and silver Mystery design. Minor scratches I couldn't get to show in the photo.

Gorgeous, shimmering snowflake pin with aqua rhinestones that are as stylish now as they were in 1949! 1" in diameter. Unsigned, but listed in 1949 documentation. Thanks to Sandy and Shirley for helping to identify this design.

Gorgeous, shimmering snowflake earrings. Aqua is all the rage this season! 1" in diameter. Unsigned. The pin was introduced in 1949, but I don't know when the earrings were introduced. Thanks to Sandy and Shirley for helping to identify this design.

Beautiful Bit of Ireland is one of the very first designs offered by Sarah Coventry. Just shy of 3/4" in diameter. Unsigned, but listed in 1949 documentation.

Beautiful, heavily gold-plated set with a cornucopia and swirl design wrapped around large emerald green rhinestones and smaller white or clear chatons in graduated sizes. The pin prominently features the cornucopia with openwork curving strands of rhinestones flowing from it. The pin is 1 1/2" long, the bracelet is 7 1/2" long, and the necklace is 15 1/2" long. The plating on three small sections of the bracelet's upper curves is slightly rough, and it appears to be from manufacture. Not noticeable except upon close inspection and not felt when worn. Unsigned, but shown in 1950 documentation. Incredibly beautiful and rare design.

Unsigned, but I have this pin in my collection on the original card in the original plastic jewel box, and it is listed in 1950 documentation. It is also listed in 1949 documentation with a different item number, however, all of the item numbers I am aware of from 1949 were changed in 1950.

Misty Dew Drop is one of the very first designs offered by Sarah Coventry. Pretty ruffled cup flowers with three layers of enameled petals with shiny gold edges and aqua rhinestone centers. 11/16" in diameter. Unsigned, but listed in 1949 documentation.

This delightful scatter pin is one of the very first designs offered by Sarah Coventry. The gorgeous moonglow lucite centerpiece rises 1/4" above the pin and is topped by a sparkling clear rhinestone. The pin is about 1 1/8" in diameter. Unsigned, but listed in 1949 documentation.

Beautiful Victorian Revival necklace featuring a complex pendant that looks simply gorgeous. It begins with an oblong open metalwork element with beading, scrollwork, a central rhinestone flower and a rhinestone perimeter. This element is set on top of a solid frame with scrollwork edges. This pendant makes fantastic use of negative space, in that the placement of the oblong element on top of a solid base gives the appearance that the base is black. It is not. It is the result of a wonderful design. The pendant's rhinestone flower is duplicated on the bail above the pendant and on the push-in box clasp. Gold filled. The pendant is 1 1/4" long, and the necklace is 16" long. The rhinestones are sparkly, although they are aging, and it appears one rhinestone has been replaced. Unsigned, but shown in 1950 documentation. Beautiful!

Still a rare beauty and lovely to wear.
