The biography of designer Jenna Nicole and the history of this jewelry brand is a mystery. And this is unfair, since these high craftsmanship filigree jewelry pieces showcasing talent and craftsmanship are worthy of knowing their creator. According to sources, Nicole worked for several years (from 1978 to 1987) as a designer for Murray Shapiro’s company, known as Heirloom 73, and later Vintage Creations.
Traditionally, she created exquisite Art Deco jewelry – brooches, bracelets, earrings, necklaces and rings using sterling silver, gold, semi-precious stones and Swarovski crystals. These pieces were labeled Jenna Nicole, sterling, and Heirloom 73 (stylized H with 7 and 3 inside). Noteworthy, in October 1987, she launched her family business, registering the Jenna Nicole Collection Ltd. Inc. jewelry company. She sold her jewelry at luxury supermarkets such as Saks Fifth Avenue in New York.
Jenna Nicole stopped making jewelry in the early 2000s and her website is no longer available.
