Founded in 1910 by Gustavo Trifari, Trifari became one of the most influential and prestigious costume jewelry houses in the United States. The brand gained widespread acclaim during the mid-20th century for its collaboration with renowned designers and its use of "Trifanium," a patented non-tarnishing metal alloy prized for its durability and luster. Trifari jewelry was often inspired by fine jewelry trends and worn by celebrities and First Ladies, making signed pieces highly desirable among collectors today.

This necklace is a beautiful example of Trifari's enduring legacy, offering classic design, quality craftsmanship, and timeless appeal.
