Monet: Hunting

Monet drawing on the slightly sinister side of nature makes my heart flutter. Every time. 

Michael and Jay Chernow got their start crafting art deco plaques for purses in 1927. Monet, the costume jewelry brand, was launched by the brothers in 1937. *

What made Monet stand out from the design pack, not to mention built a cult following that endures to this day, was intricate design, gold and silver plating and semi-precious stones. **

Claw-shaped clips in very good condition. Bright gold in tone. Shifts with the light and shadow. Wee battle scars visible up close. Although, one suspects this pair may keep the meek at a considerable distance.

Gently buffed, after careful approach, but suggest leaving deep polish to the pros. 

Self-aware. Thrives on making unusual impressions. Bound to attract or repel attention. You'll agree on a mood.
