Pls read the article published - “Diamonbar Bracelets & the Men Who Made Them “. — by Barbara Schwartz for CJCI
“ Many collectors of Art Deco costume jewelry are familiar with Diamonbar bracelets, but few people know much about the company that made these beauties.Diamonbar is the registered trademark of Wachenheimer Brothers, a costume jewelry manufacturer that was in business in Providence, Rhode Island, from 1905 to early 1934.
Thanks to the company’s belief in high-quality design and construction, Harry’s inventiveness, and the talent of their workers, many Diamonbar bracelets have survived and still bring delight to those of us who are lucky to own them.”
