MONET PROFILE As one of the oldest costume jewelry companies still in existence, Monet has, for almost 70 years, made jewelry that cannot be surpassed for its quality, craftsmanship, and audacious design. Monet was known for monogramming jewelry in the 1930s and 1940s, and high quality, gold plated statement sets from the 1950s-1980s. The attention to detail put into each piece makes owning Monet extra special. Monet Jewelry is a vintage fashion brand known for its high-end jewelry that once dominated the market. Even today, Monet jewelry is sought after by collectors and fashion aficionados. History of Monet Jewelry Monet Jewelry refers to a popular brand of vintage costume jewelry. The company specialised in creating high-end accessories and quickly became one of the top brands in the USA. The company was established by brothers Michael and Jay Chernow and was initially known as the Monocraft Products Company, which manufactured gold- and silver- plated monogram plaques for use in women’s handbags. Monocraft bags were highly sought-after and well-known for their quality. However, it was only in the late 1930s that Monocraft began to focus on jewelry. Because of the economic crisis of the late 1920s, many women couldn’t afford fine jewelry and costume jewelry became an excellent alternative. The company saw this as an opportunity to capitalize on. In 1937, the company’s name was changed to Monet and began producing high-quality costume jewelry. Led by Edmond Granville, a former Cartier fine jewelry designer, the company transformed into a leading fashion brand. Since then, Monet Jewelry has changed hands many times, and was purchased in 2000 by Liz Claiborne. Today the brand remains a favorite for vintage costume jewelry collectors and is still sought-after by those who love vintage designs.
