Silver Tone Round Gray Faux Pearl With Round Man-made White Crystal Pin/Brooch. Measures Approximately 2 1/16"l X 1 5/16"w With A Joint And Pinstem Closure. Rhodium Plated<br/><br/><br/><br/>A young woman traveling alone on a mighty ship like the Titanic is certain to raise eyebrows, but Constance Willard couldn't care less. She was a headstrong, liberated and fearless lady. Actually, she was not totally alone on the voyage. Her dear aunt persuaded the very wealthy William and Lucile Carter to keep an eye on her during the voyage. Avant-garde, radical, unconventional and forward-thinking were adjectives that best described Constance. You could most likely see her wearing this bold style (which she would have inevitably purchase for herself) as she entered the first class reception area to greet the Carters? and their other high society friends. <br/><br/>Titanic Jewelry Collection <br/><br/> For four magical days, the Titanic's elite passengers reveled in every modern luxury known at the time. During the early part of the 20th century, it was considered quite sophisticated for wealthy families to spend portions of their time in Europe which meant crossing the Atlantic at least once per year. Even to these jaded travelers, the Titanic ship was like no other. Not only was it the most impressive ship of its time draped in every luxury imaginable but so were its passengers. The women of the Titanic would plan for months to bring the right fashionable apparel aboard such a luxurious ship. Along with extensive outfit planning came accessorizing: large hats, mink stoles, gloves and of course, the jewelry. Jewelry of that time was depictive of the Art Nouveau and Edwardian eras. Art Nouveau jewelry was influenced by naturalism involving unusual designs within a symmetrical frame often encompassing foliage, leaves, enamel, pearls, crystals and gemstones. Edwardian designs included more formal jewelry: tiaras, brooches, rings, pendants, earrings, bracelets and sautoir necklaces. Many were set with brilliant gemstones, including diamonds, crystals and of course, pearl.

Silver Tone Round Crystal With White And Grey Faux Pearl Pin/Brooch, Rhodium Plated. Measures Approximately 1 15/16"l X 2 1/4"w With A Joint And Pinstem Closure.<br/><br/><br/><br/> Ida Straus was born February 6, 1849 in Germany. She was married to Isidor Strauss, a German-American businessman and co-owner of Macy's department store. Ida and her husband wintered in Cap Martin, a small resort in the Riviera, then traveled to the Holy Land and spent time in Jerusalem. This couple always traveled together, but on occasion Mr. Straus would travel alone on business. While he was away, the couple often exchanged letters daily. They had seven children together. On April 10, 1912, Ida and Isidor boarded the Titanic from Southampton with their maid Miss Ellen Bird and manservant John Farthing. Isidor and Ida Straus were seen standing near Lifeboat No. 8 in the company of Mrs. Straus's maid, Ellen Bird. Although the officer in charge of the lifeboat was willing to allow the elderly couple to board the lifeboat with Miss Bird, Isidor Straus refused to go as long as there were women and children still remaining on the ship. He urged his wife to board, but she refused, saying, "We have lived together for many years. Where you go, I go." Her words were witnessed by those already in Lifeboat No. 8 as well as many others who were on the boat deck at the time. Once Ida made this decision she gave her fur coat to her maid Miss Bird and the couple truly in love was last seen alive sitting together quietly on deck chairs on Titanic's boat deck. <br/><br/> Titanic Jewelry Collection <br/><br/> For four magical days, the Titanic's elite passengers reveled in every modern luxury known at the time.

She was born May 10, 1887, and was the daughter of Mark and Mary Fortune. She had been invited on a grand tour of Europe with her parents, two sisters and her brother. Just two months before she departed on the Titanic, while sitting on the veranda of a hotel in Cairo, Egypt, she was approached by a fortune teller who warned her "you are in danger every time you travel on the sea, for I see you adrift in an open boat... you will lose everything but your life." Alice gave the man some money, and he disappeared in the crowd. Alice returned to her home in Manitoba, Canada and married Charles Holden Allen just two months later. <br/><br/> Titanic Jewelry Collection For four magical days, the Titanic's elite passengers reveled in every modern luxury known at the time.

Lady Duff Gordon boarded the Titanic incognito to avoid those wretched photographers awaiting her arrival in New York. Of course, if you're as famous as she was, you must expect such intrusions. She is an international superstar Lucy, Lady Duff-Gordon, known for her couture fashion designs. But it wasn't always so. Lady Duff was practically penniless until her skill as a seamstress helped her raise enough money to open Maison Lucile in a ritzy part of London. She developed a skill for designing unique "personality" dresses for her wealthy clients and finishing the designs with her signature handmade flowers. She also attracted the attention of Sir Cosmo Duff Gordon. They married and he introduced her to the society of European royals. Sir Cosmo fiancially backed Lucile Ltd to sell her designs around the world. Lady Duff wrote the weekly fashion page for the Hearst newspaper, monthly columns for Harper's Bazaar and Good Housekeeping magazines. She also developed a line for Sears, Roebuck and Company, contracted to design interiors for limousines and town cars for Chalmers Motor or known today as Chrysler Corporation. Lady Duff's dramatic use of color and sheer fabrics were a sensation in her salons in Paris, London and New York. <br/><br/>Titanic Jewelry Collection <br/><br/> For four magical days, the Titanic's elite passengers reveled in every modern luxury known at the time.
