DON'T MISS OUT ON YOUR CHANCE TO GET THIS FABULOUS SET AT AN UNHEARD OF PRICE!!!The Hobe' Company was founded by William Hobe' in 1927, after he came to the US from France. Long before then, a French company of the same name was established by William Hobé's father Jacques Hobé in Paris, France in 1887. Jacques Hobé was quite well known in Europe as a master goldsmith and designer & manufacturer of fine jewelry. American Hobé costume jewelry was sold primarily in upscale department stores, adopting the slogan "jewels of legendary splendor" in 1946. A master marketer, young William Hobé approached the legendary Florence Ziegfeld to create exotic costume jewelry for the showgirls to wear in the yearly productions of the Ziegfeld Follies. This contract was really the start of Hobé's costume jewelry making operations in the U. S., and it is said that Florence Ziegfeld originated the term "costume jewelry" in referring to the pieces Hobé created for him and his theatrical productions. Throughout their history, Hobé jewelry has been all HANDMADE and used in many theatrical and movie productions during the middle of the 20th century. Especially in their early years of production 1935-1955 (THIS PIECE IS FROM THIS ERA) their work was of the very highest quality and used many of the techniques of fine jewelry in creating the metalwork and hand setting the stones. Hobé jewelry uses high quality stones and gold, and platinum plated metalwork as well as sterling silver, in contrast to lesser materials. They also made many reproductions of jewelry for the royal courts of Europe. Most of their work was signed "Hobé" impressed in the metalwork or on an oval plaque.HOBE' IS ONE OF THE PREMIER COSTUME JEWELRY MAKERS OF THE PAST CENTURY AND IS HIGHLY COLLECTED BY SERIOUS COLLECTORS!!!THIS STUNNING, VINTAGE HOBE' ORIGINAL COSTUME JEWELRY BROOCH & EARRINGS SET IS PART OF MY PERSONAL COLLECTION THAT I WILL BE SELLING IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS SO PLEASE CHECK MY LISTINGS OFTEN.
