Elizabeth Locke Jewelry
(From Wilsonestatejewelry.com):The Elizabeth Locke jewelry pieces are hand-selected and manufactured. Each of the Neoclassical pieces tells a different story - whether it contains Venetian glass intaglios, Essex crystals, Japanese porcelain buttons or Chinese gambling counters. From porcelain buttons to gold jewelry, Elizabeth Locke has made an impression on modern jewelry. Elizabeths love for classics began at the age 11 when she visited Italy with her father. She saw the graceful goddesses, sphinxes and caryatids that were present in the piazzas. So began her love affair with Italy and all items of inspiration to be found there. Elizabeth Locke Jewels was first established in 1988 as a result of the founder’s experiences abroad and her natural ability for arts and visual sensibility. The line was received very well and has become quite well known.

Davids notes: Elizabeth Lockes jewelry started showing up in Neiman Marcus and other places around the United States in the latter part of the 20th century. She usually incorporated ancient Greek and Roman designs with a modern touch, and it was an instant hit with wealthy women 30 to 70 years old. Her resale value is quite high, items at auction often bring north of 3000.00 and there are not a lot of pieces available on the 2nd hand market.

Good condition overall
