1950s Albert Weiss Blue Rhinestone Aurora Borealis Earrings on Original Card

[svgallery name="Weiss Ears on Card"]

Lovely blue rhinestone earrings date to the New Look period in America after World War !!. Late 1940s to early 1950s. Center stone has an aurora borealis finish as do alternating surrounding rhinestones. The crowing glory is the original paper card these earrings are still on. It reads: Jewels by Albert Weiss and A.W. Co. with the letter ‘W’ in the shape of a crown. I believe it reveals that the original retail price was $1.97 and they were eventually marked down to .99 cents. Each earring clip back is faintly marked WEISS in all capital letters. Brilliant chromium plating. Large prongs securely hold all stones in place.
