These pieces are highly collectible, often featuring Victorian and Edwardian revival styles, such as slide bracelets, intaglio pendants, and multi-chain necklaces.
Unsigned Goldette Jewelry (1960s–1970s)
Goldette, founded by the Circle Jewelry Company in 1958, produced high-end, detailed costume jewelry in New York.
Common Unsigned Pieces: Many Goldette items were not signed, specifically their intricate slide charm bracelets, Victorian revival fobs, and heavy gold-plated lockets.
Identification: Unsigned Goldette can be identified by its distinctive style: heavy antique gold plating, intricate filigree, reverse intaglio glass, and sometimes multiple chain strands.
Examples: Listings often feature "Unsigned Goldette" 4-chain lockets, intaglio brooches, and charm necklaces from the 1960s and 70s.

Unsigned Pieces: Florenza frequently produced jewelry for other designers (like Weiss, Kramer, and Revlon) and sometimes did not mark their own items.

Value: Unsigned Florenza is highly coveted, and collectors often look for the distinct, heavy, textured backings that characterize the brand.
