A conversation-starting gift for the Trifari collector, the geometric jewelry enthusiast, or anyone who dresses with a confident point of view.

Trifari was founded by Italian immigrant Gustavo Trifari in 1925 and worn by everyone from Hollywood stars to First Lady Mamie Eisenhower, becoming one of the great names in American costume jewelry until its merger with Monet in 1994. Pieces from before that merger are the ones collectors seek out, and these qualify.
