This exquisite Crown Trifari necklace/choker and bracelet is an Alfred Phillipe design. The quality and design is simply outstanding, reflecting the designer's former association with Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels. I have included several photos that speak volumes about both pieces. They are comprised of marquis, chaton and baguette stones set in a beautiful gold tone over what may be sterling silver. The back of each piece, where the major stones are located, is finished in a silver tone, the remaining sections are gold.
Highly desirable and very collectible, it is a new addition for me, one that I am delighted to have found.
I found this necklace in emerald colored stones but it was broken in half, I made the pieces I could salvage into earrings. Gave them to a few friends for Christmas.
Thanks for leaving a comment regarding this Crown Trifari set. I think you did something wonderfully creative in salvaging the pieces of the emerald colored necklace and creating earrings for your friends. You kept the vintage Trifari heritage alive in another form.
