 Necklace, two clips and a bracelet. The clips and bracelet are WWII era, but the necklace has a signed hook, indicating that perhaps the necklace clasp was changed, as these are all clearly from the same line. Bright yellow glass beads and pressed glass leaves. Necklace signed Haskell.
|  [Sold - all] Stunning emerald green glass beads in a variety of sizes, accented with gilt filigree flowers and roses montees make up this choker necklace, bracelet and earrings. I believe that this is a transition set, with the necklace unsigned (though the clasp has two drilled holes, perhaps indicating that the signature plate was removed). The bracelet has a Haskell hangtag. The earrings are contemporary and made by Haskell to match.
|  [Sold] Transition necklace of pate de verre and art glass beads in shades of amethyst and lavender. Signed hangtag, but unsigned flower hook. Probably from 1950-1951. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] A variation on the prior necklace, using faceted glass stones instead of art glass beads. Most likely from the same line. Similar unsigned hook with oval hangtag leading me to believe that this is from 1950-1951. Signed Haskell.
|
 [Sold] Elaborate amethyst bead bracelet from the same line. From the Haskell archives.
|  [Sold] Shades of lilac and deep purple glass dangle earrings
Haskell
C. early 1950s
Earrings have the French clip backs, signed on the small metal end attached to the filigree.
|  [Sold - all] Stunning parure of silver-tone metal chains and beads, with elaborate rhinestone and silver lily leaf centerpieces. I can't seem to get a good picture of this set--either too dark or with green streaks. Early 1950s, as there is a horseshoe signature on the pin, the earrings have French wires, and the necklace hook isn't signed. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Turquoise pate de verre bead 3-strand necklace with a possibly experimental Dove of Peace clasp. Necklace is probably from the early 1950s with no signature on the hook, but an oval plaque on the back of the clasp end. Signed Haskell.
|
 [Sold] Baroque pearls, rose pate de verre beads, faceted amethyst-colored glass beads and rhinestone rondelles make up this early 1950s necklace and earrings. It also has a dove clasp, but not the Dove of Peace seen on the turquoise necklace (see Necklace Clasp album for pictures of the two dove clasps).
Necklace has been restrung and has new spacers. Signed Haskell. Earrings formerly had the French wire clips, but were in bad shape so were restrung on the newer adjustable earclips.
|  [Sold] Parure from the early 1950s consisting of necklace, bracelet, earrings and stickpin. A rich combination of baroque pearls, blue pate de verre beads, cobalt blue faceted glass beads and pate de verre flowers. All pieces are signed except for the stickpin, which has a dove and butterfly on it, two of Haskell's favorite design elements. Signed Haskell.
|  Elaborate necklace of 5 strands of white glass beads in a variety of sizes and with an elaborate clasp. Unsigned Haskell, but part of a parure of signed pieces, probably from the late 1940s-early 1950s.
|  Rest of the parure--a 2 strand necklace of white glass beads and with a transition clasp (no ornament or signature); a 4-strand bracelet with elaborate clasp that matched the previous necklace; a pair of earrings with French wire earclips. All signed Haskell and probably from the late 1940s-early 1950s.
|
 [Sold] Necklace and earrings, c. 1950 made of large round and flattened pate de verre beads in dark green and coral, roses montees, rhinetones and elaborate gilt metal bead end-caps. See Cera pg. 27 for a matching pin. Earrings have French wires. Signed Haskell.
|  Choker necklace with a wonderful variety of pate de verre beads in shades of pink and rose, c. early 1950s. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Fabulous parure by Frank Hess. Motifs are seed beads in pale green, white and pale pink, offset by orange art glass stones and flowers of gold metal and deep aqua poured glass petals. Bracelet is quite simple, with a single clasp motif and then multiple strands of chains in 3 styles. Earrings are long chandelier style. Circa early-mid 1950s. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Choker of dark green melon beads in a variety of sizes separated by see beads and gold spacers with gilt metal flowers at the clasp. If you look closely, you can find one bead endcap missing (probably a distracted worker...). Circa early 1950s. See Cera pg. 113 for a pin with similar beads. Signed Haskell.
|
 [Sold] Fabulous green melon bead collar with overlapping loops hung from a flat gold metal chain inset with roses montees. Signed on hook. See Cera pg 116 for a similar collar dating it to first half of the 1950s. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Parure from the early 1950s of necklace, bracelet, pin and earrings. Green and cobalt blue faceted glass beads, pearl glass melon beads, pate de verre flowers and pressed glass leaves. Necklace has an asymetric central element and bracelet has an elaborate floral clasp set off by a huge cobalt blue glass stone. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] "Rope," c 1950-1955, of cobalt blue glass beads, art glass simulated turquoise, baroque pearls and smaller blue glass and turquoise-colored beads with elaborate gilt metal spacers. This piece and the next three are all 48" long. During Joseph haskell's ownership, these pieces were pushed out, using up materials in inventory. Unsigned Haskell.
|  [Sold] Rope of deep yellow and tortoise-colored glass beads, baroque pearls and elaborate gilt metal spacers. Unsigned Haskell.
|
 [Sold--necklace] Magnificent rope, bracelet and earrings of pumpkin-colored glass beads set off by metal seed bead spacers. Both the bracelet and earrings have elaborate silver metal floral designs. The pictures don't convey the luscious color of these beads! Bracelet and earrings are signed, necklace unsigned.
|  [Sold] Rope and earrings of baroque pearls in a variety of sizes, and dangling clusters of navy, turquoise and gray-blue glass beads. Earrings are signed, necklace unsigned Haskell.
|  [Sold-necklace] Necklace and earrings using Niki baroque pearls, large deep yellow faceted glass beads accented by pate de verre beads and flowers in yellow shades. Late 1950s. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] One of my favorite necklaces to wear! A wonderful Niki baroque pearl collar, using round and nailhead baroques with dangling gilt metal leaves and grooved gold metal beads. Circa late-1950s. Signed Haskell.
|
 [sold-earrings] Baroque pearl choker and earrings accented by seed pearls, green enamel leaves (seen frequently) and faceted rose crystal beads. This necklace has a horseshoe signature and has been restrung. Signed Haskell.
|  [sold] I couldn't capture the subtle color changes in the beads on this mid-1950s necklace. It starts with vaseline glass on the left, leading to dark lime-green pate de verre beads, then lighter green all separated by a variety of green seed beads. Filigree caps on the clasps are typical Haskell findings. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Huge (5 1/2") pin in the form of a bunch of grapes, with bright green art glass beads and green/white beads, interspersed with rhinestones and topped by two gold metal leaves with roses montees. Signed on an oval plaque and probably from the late 1950s. See Cera for an all-pearl version of a necklace on pg 129. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Haskell necklace from the 1950s by Frank Hess. It uses an unusual stovepipe chain and has a very dimensional gilt, coral glass bead and rhinestone centerpiece. The extender has beautiful coral-colored beads. Signed Haskell.
|
 [Sold] Summer set of 6-strand necklace, bracelet and 2 pairs of earrings, c. 1950s. Very unusual opalescent white beads in a variety to shapes, contrasting with the bright yellow seed beads and yellow opalescent cabs. Signed Haskell.
|  Hinged cuff bracelet and earrings from 1950. Ornaments of silvered filigree, rose pate de verre, baroque pearls and roses montees. See Cera pg. 103 for a similar bracelet. Signed Haskell.
|  Dimensional, stunning, but quite uncomfortable choker which can also be worn as a hair ornament, c. first half of the 1950s. Gilt metal flowers and half flowers, leaves, green glass beads, and roses montees on swirling metal pieces. See Cera pg. 111 for another example. Signed Haskell.
|  Front of choker and view of interior and hook. All elements are wired directly onto the metal form.
|
 [Sold] Necklace from a full parure--see next picture for rest of set. 8 strands of baroque pearls interspersed with red, blue and green melon beads and seed beads and grooved gold metal spacers. This necklace is an atypical length for Haskell--32" long at the shortest strand, which makes it very wearable. From the mid 1950s. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold-all] Pin, bracelet and earrings with swags of the same beads and spacers as the necklace, but dressed up with large red glass cabs, large blue rhinestones, roses montees and gilt metal flowers. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Summer necklace from the mid 1950s of a strand of white glass beads and a gold-tone metal chain from which are suspended large glass beads of white, orange, deep green and blue all topped with matching seed bead caps and interspersed with pressed glass leaves. Signed Haskell.
|  THIS IS NOT A HASKELL
While this necklace is signed in two places (hook and filigree back), after some up-close-and-personal viewing I believe it is a put-together.
The necklace gathers and the necklace construction are much more typical of Jonne jewelry.
|
 [Sold] Baroque pearl bracelet ending in a large gilt metal flower clasp, c. 1950s. Signed Haskell.
|  [Sold] Lily of the valley necklace
|  [Sold] Lily-of-the-valley pin of white glass beads and green tube beads. Horseshoe signature. Signed Haskell.
|  Haskell created a lot of stickpins, some very elaborate, others quite simple. I don't know when she stopped making them, but this pearl and rhinestone one is signed. The floral clasp at the bottom is very typical; a butterfly is another frequently used clasp.
