I have a few pieces of original 1950s jewellery; none of it is valuable as such as it is only costume jewellery but some of it can comand quite a high price these days and it is becoming more and more collectable. Certain items by companies such as 'Trifari' and 'Selro Selini' are getting fairly expensive and I've certainly noticed this upwards trend since I started collecting.
I do actually wear/use all my items but one thing that I am now especially careful about is clip-on earrings as I have lost several and been left with only one! That's why I've changed the clips on the 'Corocraft' Gypsy coin earrings to pierced fittings (i've kept the clip fittings to they can easily be swapped back).
Original 1950s gold confetti/lucite clamper bracelet, gold-tone swallows sweater clip, 'Corocraft' gold coin earrings and 'Kigu' carved lucite 'goldfish' powder compact.
