DEROSA JEWELRY

1934 to 1955 New York City

Let me begin by saying that I am a big fan of DeRosa jewelry. It’s been one of my top favorites for almost 30 years, so
let me know if you have any for sale. I will always pay really fair
prices for pieces that I like, and I like a lot of their pieces!

Ralph DeRosa Company jewelry is known for its intricate and layered designs,
high quality, unusual stones and lovely translucent enameling. Some of their
jewelry lines were designed by Elvira but I do not know who designed the
rest. Mr. DeRosa’s wife was Virginia and she and their two
daughters, Teresa and Vera (Elvira), also participated in the company.

According to two different
articles in Women’s Wear Daily, one an obituary for Virginia DeRosa, the
DeRosa company was out of business sometime before Spring of 1955. According
to his obituary, Ralph died in August of 1942, and Virginia died in May
of 1966.

DeRosa
jewelry designs include floral, figural, and retro motifs, as well as designs inspired by
some of the precious jewelry of past eras.

DeRosa jewelry is not easy to find because not many of each design were
made, but is certainly more than worth the search. After years of
collecting and selling this wonderful brand, I have found that the
majority of their pieces were signed, so beware unsigned attributions
unless there is very good reference material to substantiate it. This firm was
at 404 Fourth Street in New York City and created jewelry from the
mid-1930s until the mid-1950s.

As a serious collector, one of the best things about this company is the
rarity because not many of their pieces were made. Many of the pieces shown below are the
only ones I have seen in all the years I’ve been handling
vintage jewelry. One exception is the cupid riding on a pearlized cloud
brooch, which I see very often. An example of it is shown in this
feature. For me, that and their brooches using tumbled stones are much less interesting than the other DeRosa
pieces, and my guess is that they were made later.

Hand painted design illustrations from the De Rosa Jewelry Company
seem to have been the first step in the design process. These miniature
works of art are from a collection of over 200 illustrations
that I am happy to own and use as a reference. Several are dated in the
1940’s, and many have hand written notes about how each piece should be
produced. Many jewelry designers never
worked on paper first, but for those who did, these illustrations are
illuminating as to the thought process and
design sense that went into creating this amazing jewelry.

We BUY, collect and sell DeRosa jewelry!

brooch and earrings with aqua rhinestones, some of which are
meant to move back and forth on their loops in a lovely way. The
background of black enamel
accented with clear rhinestones completes the gold plated sterling silver setting which
frames it all. At the bottom of the brooch is a pendant aqua rhinestone
that also moves back and forth. There is a loop on the back so
this could be worn on a chain as a necklace. What an amazing and
intricate design! Marked on the back "DeRosa sterling" and
made in the 1940s, the brooch is 2-1/2" and the clip back earrings are

three-dimensional
pink flower fur clip with a circle of upright unfoiled pink rhinestones,
each in a keystone shape, around a glass imitation pearl center with a white enameled
halo around it. Some of the clear
rhinestones have grayed, but they are tiny so it is hard to notice. The
petals are enameled in two shades of pink and a gold tone fleur-de-lis
shape curls over the top of each petal, lined with clear rhinestones.
There are smaller glass pearls between each petal. On the back of the
clip are catches
so that this could have been added to a necklace perhaps and worn that way as well. It is 2"
across and in very good vintage
condition, signed "R DeRosa". Made in the 1940s, the multiple layers and abundance of detail in
this are just spectacular! Only DeRosa made jewelry like this.

flower brooch with upright faceted pink glass rhinestone petals,

version that attaches to a necklace. This does have the unusual
keystone-shaped pink rhinestones used in a way that I have only seen on
other DeRosa pieces. The two pieces of faceted red glass are invisibly set,
and each looks like four segments when it is actually only one. The
center is decorated with topaz-colored rhinestones, and there are clear
rhinestones all around the center and down the stems of the clip. One of the
pink stones has a small chip. This was converted long ago from a clip to a
brooch, and it would have been signed on the clip. The last image shows a vintage original
DeRosa art work illustrating a similar brooch.

PINK DEROSA



https://www.morninggloryantiques.com/imagesDG/DeRosa/derosa41719.jpg


DEROSA brooch with pink
and clear rhinestones and lovely green transparent enameled leaves,
a nice large size at 4" long. While this is not signed, only DeRosa did these pieces with
so much dimension and quality and with this style of leaves, circa 1940. I
haven’t seen but two of these, so
like many DeRosa pieces, it is relatively rare. Note the details, like
the crescent shaped center with clear rhinestones in a raised silver setting on it, and the translucent
enamel work.

in a silver color rhodium plated setting, a genuine beauty. The red and blue
sparkling baguettes are channel set and the clear rhinestones set them off
perfectly, even though some of them are graying slightly. It’s 2" by 1-3/4",
circa late 1930s and signed "R DeRosa" on the back.

clip with a blue cabochon center, red baguettes and clear rhinestones.
In patriotic colors, it is marked "R DeRosa" on the back, 2" by 1-1/2".
All set in a gold plated finish and in good condition except for some graying
