Antique Gold Tone Round Green Agate With Red Man-made Crystal Antique Earrings. Measures Approximately 1 1/8"l X 7/16"w With Tension Post Backings.<br/><br/><br/><br/> Eleanor Widener was a first class passenger of the Titanic. Eleanor and her husband and weren't the richest passengers on board--that honor goes to John Jacob Astor-but were not far behind him. Her husband was the heir to the largest fortune in Philadelphia and, with that, comes a certain social responsibility. Consequently, they were very well known for their lavish parties and enviable guest lists. Eleanor enjoyed collecting silver and porcelains, and said to have owned one of the finest collections of jewels in the world. One item was a strand of pearls said to be worth $500,000 in 1912. Once aboard the Titanic, the Widener's made it a point to meet the right people and invite them to their private parties. Eleanor remarried geographer and explorer Dr. Alexander Hamilton Rice. The couple traveled on several South America expeditions, Europe and India. <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.

Eleanor's Heirloom Necklace, From Titanic Jewelry Collection

Special Offer!

Rhodium Plated Silver Tone Oval Green Glass And Round White Crystal Dangle Necklace. Measures Approximately 2 1/4"l X 15/16"w With A Hidden Box Clasp. Man-made Glass And Crystal.<br/><br/><br/><br/> Marian Thayer was born November 9, 1872 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She married John Thayer, vice president of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Marian and John traveled to Europe to reunite with their 17-year-old son, Jack Thayer. On April 10, 1912, they boarded the Titanic in Cherbourg, France with Jack and their maid Miss Fleming. While onboard they met their friends George and Eleanor Widener and attended the private dinner party with other distinguished guests including Captain Edward J. Smith. The family was preparing for bed when the collision occurred. Jack went up immediately to wake his parents, who accompanied him back to the port side of the ship. Noticing that the Titanic was developing a list to port, they returned to their rooms and put on warmer clothes and life vests. They returned to the deck, but Jack lost sight of his parents and after searching for them, assumed they had boarded a lifeboat. Jack soon encountered Milton Long, a fellow passenger he had met hours before over coffee. Both Milton and Jack tried to board a lifeboat but were denied because they were men. Eventually, as the ship was sinking quickly, the two men decided to jump and attempt to swim to safety. Milton went first; it was the last time Jack ever saw him. Once in the water, Jack reached an improperly launched and overturned collapsible lifeboat, on which he and a number of other men were able to balance for some hours. After spending the night on the overturned collapsible, Jack was picked up by Lifeboat 12. He was so distraught and freezing that he did not notice his mother in nearby Lifeboat 4, nor did she notice him. Lifeboat 12 finally made its way to the rescue ship and upon their reunion Marian asked her son 'Where's daddy?'and Jack answered 'I don't know, mother.' After they disembarked from the Carpathia Marian, Jack and Margaret Fleming made their way to Jersey City, NJ where they boarded a private train back to Haverford. <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.
