Hello,
I wanted to create a thread about pearl casing and it's variety of design.
I now own several good examples, from various french and english jewellers, big houses or unknown jewellers, from I think late XIX to 40's.
Here are two casings I have, with pearls inside, the first case is probably from 30's to 50's period, not easy to get sure.
It's made from leather imitation paper, no brand, I used it for my first restring.
Second is older, probably 1910 or earlier, the necklace inside is very old.
Third is probably victorian era, it's for a pearl and amethyst necklace, empty for now, because it's hard to find such a necklace for a decent price even it's still not the most expensive.
I will share other cases tomorrow and following days, including a cartier case,a Lacloche case, and some old english and french cases
