Vintage & Retro Trifari Costume Jewelry

Suffice it to say that I love jewelry, ALL kinds of jewelry. Still, there's something special about those vintage and retro jewelry pieces. They take you back to a time when things were a lot simpler. One jewelry maker that has been among the most respected and admired producer of quality costume jewelry for years is Trifari. Trifari was founded in the early 1900's and has designed jewelry that has been worn by many, from Mamie Eisenhower to Madonna. The Trifari Crown pins, made from the late 1930s to the 1950s, were just one of many very popular pieces. In fact, the crowns were so popular that Trifari incorporated a crown into its mark in about 1937. Trifari’s Jelly Belly pins of seals, poodles, roosters, and other animals appeared in the 1940s and were also wildly popular. Nowadays, any of these pins are likely to command a good price however the poodles are especially rare. Also, Trifari's vintage floral pins from the 1930s and the fruit and vegetable pieces from the 1950s are highly sought after pieces.


At Enchanted Jewelry & Collectibles we (unfortunately) do not currently have any of these rare pieces of Trifari jewelry however we do have this Retro Vintage Set of 2 Trifari Signed Initial M Pins Brooches...
