Kramer Jewelry Creations (American, 1943 - 1970s)
Kramer Jewelry Creations was founded in 1943, in New York, by designer Louis KRAMER alongside his two brothers - Morris and Henry. The company's jewellery pieces were of high quality and had the most fascinating designs.
The company designed and made both expensive jewelry, as well as cheaper accessories.
Kramer created many quality pieces that had beautiful and extraordinary jewelry designs including those of flowers, insects, butterflies, crowns, turtles, birds, just to name a few.
The firm produced jewelry with an abundance of the highest quality Austrian rhinestones and crystals, both transparent and colored, as well as gilded metal with black enamel, artificial pearls, imitation of rubies, emeralds, lapis lazuli, jade, turquoise, and pearls.
The "Kramer Jewelry Creations" collections are varied, from simple decorations to extremely extravagant ones. Many of these accessories had limited circulation and always best materials.
In the 1950s, the "Golden Look" was produced using gold plated metal and in the 1960s, the "Diamond Look" was produced using silver plating. Their designs were always innovative and excellently crafted.
Along the way, Kramer created fascinating pieces for jewelry houses such as DeLizza and Elster, Dan Kasoff Inc., which produces Florenza jewelry, and for Christian Dior in the beginning of 1950s under the brand names "Kramer for Christian Dior" and "Dior by Kramer."
Many of these pieces are large blue or green stones, usually located in the middle of the jewelry work, surrounded by clear transparent rhinestones.
"Kramer Jewelry Creations" ceased operations in the 1970s.
