Signed Amsel vintage costume jewelry (1960s)
The history of the Canadian jewelry brand Amsel began in 1962 and lasted just over a decade. The company was mentioned in business directories of Québec silver jewelry manufacturers in 1963, 1967 and 1973.
The Amsel Bros Company, located at 4372 blvd. St-Laurent, Montreal, handcrafted silver, gold and metal items. A characteristic feature of this brand’s jewelry is its fine filigree work and high quality workmanship. Moreover, the most common design in a variety of textures and shapes is the national Canadian symbol – the maple leaf.
Today, Amsel jewelry is extremely rare and collectible.
