Such an Amazing Teacher and Chanel. THANK YOU. Love from Boston :)

What is the Neiger book title? I would love to know. Thank you.

Very beautiful! are they nickel free?

Very informative and interesting!!! I appreciate the history behind these pieces. I have a pair of earrings, I cant verify on the website you mentioned, but i also don't know how to describe the shapes and whatnot. Just curious if you have the time, would you be interested in looking at them?

Ha! Turns out I have 2 duo pieces! Both rhinestone (or glass?), both deco-ish I’ve had them for years and had no clue why they were designed to come apart…In truth, I didn’t discover that feature until 2 years ago! Thank you, once again.

Loooove enamel!

Brava! Excellent video, for so many reasons-the main one, as is always the case with you, is content. In particular the information you curate and impart…a tall order to meet. So, Ciner: Completely new to me-I’m a relative newcomer to fine costume jewelry (aka: Pandora’s Box). The history and craftsmanship of their work, really resonates with me. No matter the quality, I’m a sucker for enamel work of any kind. But that enamel work took my breath away. Truly exquisite.

Thank you so much for doing this presentation on Christian Dior how beautiful are these pieces. I am sure I can speak for anyone who has watched these videos how informative they are. I was so excited to hear you were doing another one. Please keep up the good work. I am obsessed with Costume Jewellery. I managed to find a beautiful piece of Christian Dior in an op shop this year........ for $5, let's just say it made my day almost went running from the shop....

I love this video..excellent info

Thank you for this video ❤

Watch your videos over and over

Wonderful informative video, as always thank you😊. I'm actually lucky enough to own a couple of Mitchel Maer pieces, (demi parures consisting of clip on earrings and matching brooches) one set is marked Dior the other 'just' Mitchel Maer. The stones and elements are so similar you can mix and match between the two sets. They are amongst my most treasured pieces 😊

Thank you for your informative knowledge, much appreciative, Keep it coming

Excellent. I just started watching your videos. To find a straightforward expert is rare. I LOVE that you wear many pieces from your collection…and I’m with you on the Grossé pieces (im a sucker for beautiful weaves and “impossible” angles). You have exquisite taste! Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for such an informative session !

Thank you SO much for sharing your knowledge with us! It’s so needed! I am building up my jewelry book library so I can depend on books rather than the web, but it takes time. So, please know how truly appreciated you are. ❤

I have an 80"s chain necklace with red green or red and blue gripoix glass stations, it has C D (C on one side, D on the other side) of an unusual top down fold over clasp rather than the usual side to side fold over closure, It has no chr dior., hang tag, etc. But it is an obvious C & D. Have you seen this signature by Dior with only the initials before? Thank you for your help!

I just watched your video, and I must confess I am one of those people who you may have gritted your teeth and shook your fist at in annoyance. I have a lovely Grosse brooch listed and I thought it was Dior as well. You schooled me, for sure!!! I've corrected the listing. Everything I was able to find while researching pointed me in that direction and I fell for it. Hook, line and sinker. What a knucklehead I am! Thank you so very much for putting me straight. You are a wealth of information. I have watched many of your videos more than once, I must add. Each time, I glean just a bit more information I missed the first time around. I encourage others to do the same. Thank you again!!!

Thank you again for an amazing video Julie 😊

Thank you for all your wonderful and encouraging comments.

I Love your videos! I watch them over and over and would love to have a copy of every video you’ve done on the costume jewelry. I’d like to put in a notebook for reference.

Informative... Thank you.

I absolutely love your videos! I have always loved your videos. This one was fantastic. Thank you so much for putting it together!

Fabulous video! Great information and jaw-dropping jewelry! It's always exciting to see you've released a new video. Thank you so much!

Wonderful video! ❤

This was such an enjoyable and informative video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

So glad you posted a new video!!! I always learn so much from you even though I have been a collector myself for 40 years! Thanks 😊

Great information ! Thank you

Thank you for the informative video! I get very excited when I see you have a new post and I rewatch your old ones, using them as reference.

Thank you for this new video! ❤

Exquisite! You have some beautiful pieces, Julie. I love Christian Dior. I have a few of his jewelry pieces, but more so I have several vintage bags from the 60s and 70s which I use regularly. I’m actually using some bags as small carry on luggage today as I travel. They are amazing and very durable. Thank you for the video! I’m going to look for the book. The book (which I found one) is around $750.00.

I would like a copy please.

Please send a copy of the presentation. Thank you.

Just discovered your videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!❤❤

I'm a man that Loves costume jewelry! I found two pairs of ciner clip on earrings my mother was parting with. Found it odd, an earring has a pat 156452 inside on clasps, logo name outside on clasp. OMG! Pat's glass pearl double broach is beautiful. To see Mrs Pat's jewelry what she parted with or donated, what was given away is intriguing. It's almost the costume jewelry version of Elizabeth Taylor. Reading everything on her right now..😍thk you!😘💕

Do you sell these ?

Julie, I love your video about Trifari! My father, Lucius Passavanti, was a staff designer, along with Jean Paris, under Phillipe. Every night he can home from work with stories. I also have a photo of my dad with Jean paris which landed on the cover of American Jewelry Manufacturer in the 60s.

I have a 1341 bracelet for sale if any collectors desire such a beauty. Great price! 200$

Thank you for your clear presentation, it's interesting learning what the most desired pieces and designers are!!

I admire your bravery using the KZbin platform, because besides the obvious public speaking fears, it seems to become an all consuming : overwhelming feat to take on. And yet you take time to comment on the resolve to keep life + family a higher priority so thank you for that, as well as this well done education/presentations.

Enamel itself is fascinating , I thought is was regular paint until recently! Thank you for these

GOOD to see you again!! YEAH!! I love your very clear and knowledgable videos on Vintage Jewelry. Please keep on making them. We love you! ❤

Thank you, for sharing your experience and knowledge.😊

What are the baby teeth made out of what kind of stone? Is it a pearl?

Thank you for the information! Are the pieces that are from the lower line (plastic) still valuable for re-sale?

I LOVE your Videos! Years later I remembered you! Thank you so much for such a VERY CLEAR & PROFESSIONAL Video!! All of yours!

How do you date your Ciner piece? I have a turquoise enamel bangle signed CINER and would love to know how old it is but can’t find any info.

Can't see

Yes those different names of the country are quite confusing. Some of them seem to be English, the ones starting with T German. I think the naming was conditioned by the market where the items were exported. Even currently two names of the country are used - Czech Republic and more recent and shorter Czechia. BTW the north of the country is also known for handmade and handpainted Christmas decorations made of glass which are also worth checking out. ❤

Wonderful info ~ Thank you! As you may already know, the site you've mentioned for reference is no longer online. Sounds like it was a great resource though.
