The history of American costume jewelry labeled “C. R. A.” spans not more than a decade. Incorporated in 1990s, Crimzon Rose Accessories, Inc. located in North Providence Rhode Island, ceased to exist in early 2000s.
. According to other sources, the company produced costume jewelry in the 1980s. Due to vintage look of these brooches, pins and rings, some indicate the date of their manufacture – the 1960s. In fact, it is impossible to refute or confirm this, as it is extremely rare in the vintage costume jewelry market.
The designs of these pieces range from Egyptian motifs to Art Deco, figural and heraldic, as well as classic flower and plant motif. The materials traditionally included gold and silver tone alloys, 925 sterling silver, faux pearls, art glass, rhinestones, and enamel.
