Four years ago Cheryl Kilmer was asked by Mr DeLizza to start to sell of some of his personal collection of jewelry. For those that don’t know Cheryl Kilmer was the first person to put together the connection between the elusively tagged Juliana Jewelry and the jewelry manufacturer DeLizza and Elster. (The full story can be read in Mr DeLizza’s book on page 157). Since that time Cheryl has become a close personal friend of the DeLizza’s. She was the logical person to be asked to take on this task. Cheryl then listed the first few pieces of the jewelry for sale stating they were from his personal collection.
Now steps in our next major player in this story. Jan Romanchik one of the most prolific collectors of Juliana Jewelry. She sees this information and contacts Cheryl asking about this jewelry. She finds out the large scope of this jewelry and knows it can not just be sold off piece by piece without it’s story being told. So she steps in and purchased most of the collection of Mr DeLizza’s jewelry.
Jan enjoys this jewelry for a while. She then starts to look for a way to have the story of this jewelry told. She talks with people about a book but could not get the project off the ground due to books declining popularity and people preferring their information to be on line. Her and I talk and come up with the plan to share the story of these jewels and share some of them for sale via a weekly blog.
The blog and these photo albums will traverse through the history of DeLizza and Elster. The jewelry will be presented as an eye into the history of their jewelry.
