Guglielmo Cini came from Italy to Boston in the early 1900s, and then settled in Laguna Beach, California, where he had a jewelry studio. My grandmother and great-aunts would save up their money to buy sets from him. Earrings, pendants, brooches, necklaces, bracelets and rings. He was one of the most famous artisan jewelry makers of that time. His specialties were European and specifically Italian traditional designs; Renaissance motifs such as the Fleur de Lis, shields, and crests (such as the lovely Prince of Wales design); elements of nature such as flowers, feathers, fruit, animals, and insects; dancing peasants; dragons; signs of the zodiac; keys; and all sorts of decorative Rococo flourishes and curlicues. He also did a later series of jewelry with semi-precious stones such as topaz, and also colored glass. Very beautiful. If any of those sound interesting to you, please see my other items for sale and auction. I am clearing out a family collection of Cini and other jewelry.
