This is just the set you have been looking for! Stunning to say the least. Gorgeous vintage parure set by Leru, circa 1956 consisting of necklace, bracelet and earrings in beautiful goldtone and rhinestones. The bib style necklace is a 15 inch choker length with trapezoid shaped pieces which have indented corners with a polished goldtone frame and textured goldtone interior adorned with rhinestones set in the middle of a wonderful starburst design. The kidney-shaped clip earrings are 1.5 inches tall by 1 inch wide and have the same polished goldtone frame surrounding the textured goldtone interior. They are also adorned with the beautiful rhinestones set in the starburst design. And, finally, the box style chain bracelet is 8 inches and has the same polished and textured goldtone pieces as the necklace only in a rectangular shape. These too are adorned with the same starburst designs with rhinestones. All in all a very stunning parure set and in excellent condition.
Leru was a Classic Mid-Century American costume jewelry company similar to Lisner and Coro in business from 1956 to 1960. Their low priced but very pretty jewelry used thermoset plastic, rhinestones and moon glow Lucite set in metal frames. Many of their pieces were featured in an ad in a 1958 Vogue Magazine.
