Lawrence VRBA JEWELRY



Larry Vrba is a wonderful jewelry maker and
a good friend. He has been making jewelry for over 50 years, and was
the head designer at Miriam Haskell Jewelry in the 1970’s. Larry
makes jewelry for the Broadway Stage and the Opera as well as for boutiques, balls
and
select and vintage jewelry shops. His pieces are almost always quite large,
usually four inches or more, and he has a huge collection of vintage beads and rhinestones
from which to fashion them.

The brooch on the left is one of my favorites as
it has such a rich combination of stones and colors. This particular
piece is really too large to wear, but it is a jeweled sculpture.
Each and every piece is hand made, so it is not always easy to get
his jewelry. His glass petal bouquets,
vase and basket brooches and Christmas tree brooches are favorites.

reclining carved plastic camel pin, 4-1/2". The
camel rests with green rhinestone palm fronds and brown
rhinestone tree trunk. The camel was carved from plastic in Italy and
Larry Vrba says that he bought it from the Rosenstein Jewelry Company
collection when
they were closing. That makes this a very special piece and it was made in
the 1990’s.

HASKELL/VRBA this fabulous
one-of-a-kind portrait pin was made
in 1973 by Larry Vrba, then head designer for Miriam Haskell, and the
portrait came from the Nettie Rosenstein collection. . It was made for a Broadway play called "Crown Matrimonial"
and is 6" by
3-1/3". There was more regal-looking jewelry made for the same
Broadway play, and I dream of finding other pieces. The man in the
portrait is Napoleon II,
Napoleon
François Joseph Charles Bonaparte, Duke of Reichstadt
(20 March 1811
— 22 July 1832) originally art work by Moritz Michael. The man in the
portrait is the son of Napoleon and his wife Marie Louise of Austria.
This very same brooch was in Christie Romero’s book "Warman’s Jewelry,
Edition 2" on page 195.

LARRY VRBA
large morning glory flower brooch with blue and green
rhinestones and white accents set in an antiqued gold tone metal, a huge
6-1/3" wide and 5-1/3" high and stands 2-1/2" off the shoulder when
worn. Each leaf is accented by green flat-back rhinestones, making it
extra special. Larry Vrba custom made this huge brooch in the likeness of my
Morning Glory logo.
Need I say it is one of my all-time favorites, and I suspect it is
one-of-a-kind, made in 2000.

VRBA
hinged brooch with a golden horse head at the top, wonderful red
textured stones and purple cabochons, and glass pearls, all set in gold
tone. In addition he has added several different kinds of aurora borealis
stones, as well as red faceted glass beads and clear rhinestone flat backs
and roundelles. Signed on the back "Lawrence Vrba", it is 7" long and 4" at
the widest. NOTE: Larry told me that the horse head element is a rare piece
from the 1940s! He was so pleased to be able to use it in this brooch. He
also said the gold caps on the dangling pearls are from his cache of old
Miriam Haskell findings. Larry says the Art Nouveau frame that the top part
is built on is a French finding sourced at the Framex Company in Paris,
designed between 1890-1910. The stamped ribbon was used extensively by the
Schiaparelli Company, and I have seen it used in one of their necklaces.

Vrba at Miriam Haskell Jewelry

After a stint in the Army, Larry moved from his home in Lincoln, Nebraska,
to New York City in June 1969. Looking for work and being a fan of
Miriam Haskell jewelry, Vrba repeatedly went to the
Haskell offices
asking for a job. By pure luck he ran into the then-owner of Haskell
Jewelry, Sandy Moss, and Moss hired Vrba as a counter. A counter assembles
the pieces for each piece of jewelry, preparing it for the jewelry makers.

Within six weeks of being hired, Vrba was a designer making jewelry
each Friday, a position he held for about 1-1/2 years. When Bob Clark, the
head designer, left to partner with William De Lillo, Larry went with him.

Within a short time after that he moved on to Castlecliff Jewelry where worked from
about 1970-72. (See below)

Meanwhile back at Haskell,
another head designer left and Larry came back home, becoming head designer
from 1973 to 1981. He was young, talented, creative and an asset to every
company he ever worked for.

Vrba Today

In 1981 Larry Vrba left Miriam Haskell Jewelry, working for Les Bernard
Jewelry. Larry Vrba had goods in Dillard’s for 3 seasons in the 1980’s, too. In about 1983 began his own jewelry
line,
creating strong three-dimensional, colorful and large pieces. Among the customers for his
own "Lawrence Vrba" jewelry can be counted the Broadway theater
(jewelry for Hairspray, tiaras and scepters for Wicked and
many more), Metropolitan Opera, shops, boutiques and collectors. His line is
being shown at Bergdorf Goodman, and the most recent Broadway shows for
which he has made jewelry are "Hairspray", "Exit the King", "Blythe Spirit" with Jessica Lansbury
and the revival of "Lend Me a Tenor". As one of the most respected
contemporary jewelry makers around, his line has remained successful and in
demand for over 50 years. Larry is that unusual
combination of the creative talent and a great mind for business. He now
works in his own studio creating on a daily basis.
