DEJA
cream and green enameled floral brooch with clear rhinestones and a red
glass drop, 3″. The enameling shows light wear, but the brooch is still lovely
and it is signed "Deja" on the back.
The company name "Deja" was changed to "Reja" in about 1941.

DEJA
vase brooch of lush red enameled roses in a clear rhinestone pave vase set in
rhodium plated base metal, 2-1/8" by 2-1/8", circa 1940. While this
looks a lot like a brooch by DeRosa, I have seen another just like this that was signed "Deja",
and this pin has no signature at all.

DEJA
double flower bouquet bracelet and brooch of transparent green glass beads
and clear rhinestones on a gold tone mesh band. It is signed on the
back of the brooch "Deja" and it is from 1939. In 1939, the bracelet
sold for $5.95 and the brooch for $3.95. A very nice customer of mine
sent me these photos of her set, which is like the bracelet in red also
shown in this
row.

DEJA
tulip flower fur clip with lovely aqua faceted glass beads, each with a clear
rhinestone in the center and with each portion lined with clear rhinestones as
well for extra brilliance. It is all set in gold plated silver and signed
on the back "Deja", made in about 1940, 3" by 2". We have in our
collection the DeRosa design art work for a very similar
flower, shown
HERE, and find it interesting that they were offered by at least two
different companies, Deja and DeRosa.

REJA red molded glass leaves
necklace, bracelet and earrings set in gold tone. The necklace is 15" by
5/8", bracelet is 7" by 3/4", clip back earrings 1".
I have been told that the name "Deja" was changed to "Reja" in about 1941 so
this would have been made after that.

REJA attributed heart bracelet with ruby red and clear
rhinestones on a smooth and easy to wear gold tone mesh band, 6-1/2"
wearable length and 1" band. The heart center is about 2" by 2". As
you can see in the photo, there is very slight wear to the gold tone
finish on the back side, but the rest of the bracelet is in excellent
condition, including the rhinestones. The heart element is stationary
as it should be, and it does not move up and down on the band. Based on
signed pieces I have seen in the past, I believe this is an unsigned
Reja bracelet. It is lovely and in overall very good vintage
condition. It’s perfect for Valentine’s Day or as a love symbol for all
year long.
