Gold chains with a beautiful clasp.  One set of earrings match the necklace.  The brooch and other pair of earrings are the same design with slighly different stones.

Florenza made this set using several different colored stones.  This version is my favorite.

The "S" shaped stones are hard to find in such good condition.  They seem to discolor from the glue and are many times missing from a piece.

The bracelet, earrings and round necklace are fairly common, but this is the only one I've ever seen of the five-dangle necklace.

A selection of Florenza critters and people (with an apple thrown in for good measure).  The clown brooch is very old and uses "painted" balls rather than the set colored balls that you see in later Florenza pieces.  The bee has trembler wings.

Beautiful, classic designs.

This set matches the earlier pictured japanned set, but now in gold with AB stones.  The bracelet is impressive!
