Signed Barcs vintage costume jewelry
The history of costume jewelry trademark “Barcs” began in the middle of the 20th century in Alexandria, Australia. Founded in 1948, “Barcs & Co Unit Trust” was the wholesale distributor of costume jewelry, watches, clocks, and silverware. Since August 1957, the company’s name was changed to “A. Barcs & Co (Manufacturing) PTY Ltd”. Registered in Lewisham, New South Wales, A. Barcs & Co (Manufacturing) PTY Ltd ceased to exist in 2015. However, the renewed high end costume jewellery company “A Barcs & Co Nominees Pty Ltd”, incorporated in 1982, is still active.
The world’s famous brand, Barcs has a well-deserved reputation for quality, craftsmanship and commitment to classic yet modern fashion jewelry design. Elegant and confident, Barcs strikes the perfect balance of trendy and timeless jewelry, implemented in necklaces, bracelets, clip earrings, rings and brooches.
Traditionally, the marking includes “BARCS” and patent number.
