The jewelry company was founded in 1910 by Gustavo Trifari, son of Neapolitan immigrants in the United States (there were other times). Trifari defined an era in American jewelery with necklaces, rings, earrings and bracelets that have been worn by the First Lady Mamie Eisenhower, but also by Madonna. It is also merit of a French designer, Alfred Philippe, who was the creative mind of the House from 1930 until 1968. Although it is a costume jewelry brand, the production has also used techniques born in the jewelry, such as using the “invisible set\u00bb for the stones, that was invented by Van Cleef and Arpels.<\/p>\n

Among the most sought after pieces of Trifari there were the crowns. The pins\u00a0Trifari Crown, from the late thirties to the fifties were among the most popular jewelry. There’s also a 1953 series that celebrates the ascension to the throne of Elizabeth II. Also very popular jewelry in the shape of animals or flowers: someone collects them. Realized for years simply not precious metal, costume jewelery during World War have gone to silver, because of the shortage of raw material intended for use in war. The Trifari family continued to manage Maison until 1975. Then the company was bought and sold several times until, in 2000, the Monet group has moved production abroad and marked the decline of the brand.<\/p>\n

The success of Trifari bijoux also derives from the VIP clientele, true influencers of the time, who advertised the brand by wearing the jewels. In the 1930s many Trifari bijoux were created for the Broadway musicals, at their peak at the time, and for many showgirls. And Trifari jewels were also worn by the first lady, the wife of President Eisenhower, Mary Geneva known as Mamie, who chose these jewels on the occasion of her husband’s inauguration in the White House in 1950. And nowadays, Madonna in the film Evita has worn Trifari jewelry.<\/p>\n
