Signed Giorgio vintage costume jewelry
The history of costume jewelry trademark “Giorgio” spans a very short period of the 1980s. Due to this fact, Giorgio signed pieces which include a few figural animal pins, are very rare.
According to the U.S. trademark records, filed by Susan M. Shook on the 1st of March of 1980 trademark “Giorgio” soon changed its status to “Cancelled”.
There is practically no information about the company, but luckily, there are products of excellent quality and high craftsmanship. Traditionally inspired by nature, the design of these decorations stands out – beautiful birds and animals in gold tone metal with rich enameling and crystals.
Very often, jewelry labeled “Giorgio” is mistakenly attributed to the iconic Italian designer Armani. Neither the style nor the design of these pieces prove the belonging to Armani. Moreover, Armani didn’t mark his jewelry with one word “Giorgio”, as the surname has been an inseparable part of the world famous brand.
Noteworthy, along with U.S. “Giorgio” and Italian Giorgio Armani hallmarks, there was another Los Angeles U.S. jewelry trademark – Giorgio Beverly Hills. They produced beautiful costume jewelry around the same time period. However, they marked their jewelry with full name “Giorgio Beverly Hills”.
