Both of these are reproductions, but made by different companies. Notice that they are not exact copies of the originals. The metal is obviously not sterling.

According to the lady who designed this, it is an abstract free form design. It is NOT a woman's torso!

I had seen this Eisenberg Original with a blue stone. This design is based on a piece of fine jewelry.

For comparison. I bought the smaller one long ago. Paid $125 for it, which was a lot at that time.

This one measures 2¼" from wing tip to wing tip. Rhodium plated. The mark is just Eisenberg

This bow pin appeared in a 1940 Eisenberg ad. It is heavy. The scan looks as if there had been a gold wash, there wasn't. Mark is Eisenberg Original

An Eiseneberg Original with a very eleborate design. It must have been difficult to make.

I called this a retro design, it is a marked Eisenberg Original with black diamond color stones.
| 
27
This ad is a scan of a photo copy so it is not the best. This shows the pin clip in the previous picture. A 1941 ad

This necklace was made in the late 1980s, but does not turn up very often.

For many years I had just one of these pins and did not know there were a pair! Finally found it when I wasn't looking. They are sterling and marked Eisenberg Original

Not very big, about 1½" tall. The beads are such a dark blue that they did not scan well. Marked Eisenberg Original
| 
32
When I saw where the mark was I was concerned. However, there is really no other way to have marked this piece. It is authentic, according to Ruth.
|
33
A Wendy Gell Wristie The center figure is the Gargoyle design by Ruth Kamke. The mirror image pieces on either side of the Gargoyle are also Eisenbergs.
The stone that the figure has its elbows on would have been like the one in the next picture.

34
This is what the pin origianlly looked like that is on the Wristie
|

A pair of Eisenberg Originals that I am not familiar with. I have shown them upside down so the mark could be read. The pin and the pendant are just alike except for the backs. Each is about 2" tall. They are also marked sterling. These were hard to get a scan of, but there is one very large stone, and the rest of each piece is pavé set.
|
45
I hope you can tell a little more from this picture. Eisenberg Original and sterling are the marks.
| 
46
I am hoping someone will remember seeing this one in a book somewhere. It is a pin/clip, sterling, and marked Eisenberg Original. It is very heavy.

This crown was sold on ebay. Supposedly marked Eisenberg Original. I checked with Ruth Kamke, because EOs would have been made when she was head designer.
She told me that they did not make crowns. In addition, the stones are ABs, which they could not be if it were made during the EO period.

I was delighted to find the ad to match this one!
