If you have a moment, you might like to look in on the Ripley's Auction. It's going on now, and a Juliana set just sold for $2800. Others are very high also. Wow!! https://www.ripleyauctions.com/auct..._campaign=autoregistration&utm_content=264067
I remember Cheryl Killmer, whose collection is being auctioned at Ripley's. Cheryl made the connection between jewelry that had a a tag marked "Julianna" and DeLizza and Elster about 20 years ago. (I may still have the issue of VFCJ featuring her and discussing her discovery on a shelf in my garage.) I was able to find an article in Antique Trader about her discovery, and about "Juliana aka D&E" and how to identify it: https://www.antiquetrader.com/collectibles/juliana-jewelry-identify Cheryl was active in the VFCJ - VIntage Fashion Costume Jewelry - ( I met her several times at Conventions.) She was also active in Jewel Collect and the online group RJJ - "Real Juliana Jewelry." Frank DeLizza authenticated pieces that were in question on that website. Frank DeLizza attended several VFCJ Conventions in Providence and was amazingly generous with his knowledge. He went on to write a book about the history of his company. I did a search for Cheryl and discovered that she passed away in August 2023. Very sorry to read this.
