Coro's Silver Leaf Earrings c. 1970's

Just the mention of Coro is music to a collector's ears. Coro was begun in 1901 by Emanuel Cohn and Carl Rosenberger who opened a small accessories store on Broadway in New York City. Not until 1943, did the company name Coro, a contraction of the first two letters of each partner's last name, change to Coro, Inc.

A leading designer in costume jewelry, Coro set the trends that many other high-end jewellers copied throughout the 40's and 50's.
