Eisenberg Originals: The Golden Years of Fashion, Jewelry, and Fragrance, 1920s-1950s
Over 400 photographs document the creations of the Eisenberg design house from the 1920s through the 1950s

In the realm of costume jewelry, few names evoke the elegance, craftsmanship, and historical richness of Eisenberg. Founded in the early 20th century and known for its flashy style, large stones and bold design, Eisenberg jewelry has become synonymous with high-quality designs and meticulous attention to detail. Today, collectors and fashion enthusiasts alike continue to celebrate Eisenberg's legacy, making vintage pieces highly sought after.

Eisenberg was one of the first American jewelry design houses, and the jewelry that bears its mark is among the finest costume pieces ever created. Yet there is surprisingly little written about the company, and almost nothing about the other products it marketed.

In more than 400 photographs, this book chronicles Eisenberg's beginnings in clothing fashion, and follows the trajectory of its revered jewelry line, as well as documenting its often overlooked fragrances and cosmetics. With stories of the people and companies that were integral to this label's success, this book shows that, in its golden years, the company's creations deserved the place they held in only the finest stores.
