The history of Terner costume jewelry began in 1974, when Salomon Terner founded his family business in Miami, Florida. However, before founding Terner jewelry company, he was already a successful businessman.
Born and raised in Cuba, Salomon came to the United States in the early 1960s. Turner started the business of making handbags for airline flight attendants, and and succeeded in this.
Even after starting a jewelry and accessories company, Turner continued to manufacture bags and accessories. Helping her father, his daughter Rosa soon joined the family business. The company has expanded and grown steadily over a decade, opening retail stores, and gaining an international recognition. Mostly, boutiques were opened at airports, cruise ships and even casinos around the world.
Noteworthy, many renowned jewelers and companies created costume jewelry for Terner. In particular, DeLiza & Elster.
Since 1986, the company has changed several names and owners, opening divisions in different countries. Among them – Bijoux Terner Partnership, Bijoux Nouveau, Inc., Bijoux Terner LLC., and others. Finally, Bahraini private company Arcapita acquired Bijoux Terner in 2006 for $ 90 million.
