Fabulous vintage 22k hardgold clad Florenza brooch with tigers eye

This beautiful brooch is in very good vintage condition. About 7cms across.

The Florenza jewelry manufacturing company, once a major industry player in New York, was represented by Larry Kasoff, son of the founder, Dan Kasoff. Florenza operated under the name Dan Kasoff, Inc. as a manufacturing industry, and did not start marking its own production jewelry FLORENZA until around 1949-1950. It is important to note that the Dan Kasoff Corporation came into being about 1945 and before that it was a company without the incorporated name. The jewelry was not marked until Dan Kasoff found out that "Original Sculptural Expressions" could be applied for to the Washington copyright office. It may have been earlier than 1948 when he began filing. There were 3 marks used: Florenza in script outside a circle was first used then Florenza in block letters in an oval or rectangle depending on the room, style of the piece and finish that was used.

I prefer using recycled packaging materials as far as possible.
