I have a string of pearls left to me when my mother passed away in 1970. I’m thinking she got these as a gift from my father maybe in the 1940’s. I have no idea if they have any value or are costume jewelry. They are 22 inches long and I just noticed your tag on them. Can you give me any ideas on what they would approximately be worth? I also have a double strand that doesn’t have any tags on them.

Hi Miss Picky
thanks for your question. Before you have the earring redesigned into a pearl pendant you might like to consider listing the earring (include a description and a photo of the single earring) on the jewelry exchange in the hope of finding a match?
I have one vintage Tiffany screw back butterfly ear ring. All sterling silver. In perfect condition. I’d guess it’s from 40’s maybe 50’s. It’s absolutely gorgeous in the detail. I’d like to find another or can I turn this beauty into a pendant necklace? How much value would I lose?

I’ve got a beautiful Pearl strand necklace from 1985. Pearls tapper. Gold tag with Marvella stamped. Beautiful ivory color they were and now have yellowed a bit. I’m going to clean them with piece of old cloth tee shirt. Looking for mild soap I could use on synthetic Pearls? I was thinking drift. Is that ok?

Marvella clasp
Just Marvella Curious by: railmom25@yahoo.com
I found this 35 inch necklace of "pearls" in a bag of jewelry I purchased about 15 years ago at a thrift store. Just noticed the gold tag says Marvello or Marvella. The clasp appears to be real gold and very well made. The whole necklace is quite heavy. No idea on age or date. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Nancy
I wouldn't think of selling them. You won't get anything close to the sentimental value. Take them out tonight and wear them in loving memory of your dear Mom.
Kindest Regards Yvonne

Were any marvella pearls authentic. Or were they all simulated.?
good quality simulated pearls from the 50s by: Anonymous
Marvella simulated pearl necklaces were very popular in the 1950s, and very high quality with hand tied knots between the "pearls". While they continued to be sold under the name even after the company was sold - most vintage strands are from the 1950s,
It depends on how many strands are in the necklaces...they sold for $9-$15 in the 1950s and are selling in excellent condition now for anywhere between $9 and $35. Though a six strand necklace with a matching bracelet recently sold for $135.

Marvella & Trifari Connection by: Anonymous
I believe that Marvella was purchased by Trifari in the early 1980s and eventually became part of the Liz Claiborne group. As of 2012, jewelry is still being distributed in department stores and other retail outlets bearing the Marvella name.
Marvella Pearls by: Anonymous
Marvella was a brand of costume jewellery founded by New York businessman Sol Weinreich in 1906.
The date coincides. The company specialized in simulated pearls of such high quality that a Marvella Pearl Brooch, Marvella Pearl Necklace and Marvella Bracelet set was featured in Vogue in 1945.
