Signed early Nemo flower clear rhinestone earrings vintage petite button Thank you for looking at my item OMG this is beautiful vintage silver tone set of earrings they are beautiful button earrings that are signed on the back NEMO this was used in 1913 by the company Little Nemo Please read below. These earrings are stunning little flowers with perfect rhinestones please look at the pictures I took the best I could it's so hard look at the workmanship in these. They are petite button screw backs It’s much stunning cuter in person I do not know the age of this item but I do know I bought it at in the 1980’s But I do make a guess early 1913's by what I found on the net that the name Nemo was used in 1913 Great for anyone’s collection This earrings are approx 3/4 inches round Please make sure to super size the pictures to see the “age spots” We all have age spots at this age For many years the jewelry collecting community was in the dark as to what the initials LN stood for in L/N or L/N 25 (or other number) until one lucky person found a carded piece of jewelry that had both the L/N mark and Little Nemo. Like most companies, Little Nemo jewelry changed with the times but this brand is most known for its "Czech look" type pieces. Unfortunately no one has been able to ascertain, to my knowledge, what the numbers that sometimes follow L/N mean. The jewelry was manufactured by Brier Manufacturing, located in Providence, RI, which was founded by Benjamin Brier and Sam Magid in 1913. The name "Little Nemo" came from a popular comic strip character of the time. The company became the 2nd largest jewelry manufacturer in the US, with only Coro being larger. While they manufactured their own lines under L/N and Little Nemo (and much of their production is unsigned, as most of it was simply carded/hang-tagged with their name), they also manufactured for other companies, such as Helena Rubenstein, Revlon, and Walt Disney. When the costume jewelry industry succumbed to the "no jewelry" look of the 1970's, Brier filed for bankruptcy, 65 years after its start. NEMO Nemo was a mark of the Brier Manufacturing Company, a costume jewelry company located in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. The Nemo mark was first used in January, 1913; the marks L/N and L/N25 "Nemo Gold Seal Quality" also belonged to this company (L/N perhaps standing for "Little Nemo"). This company produced brooches, necklaces, bracelets, dress clips, earrings, tiaras, hair clips, etc., often featuring colorful rhinestones in gold-plated pot metal.
