Original Art Work
These are gouache on illustration board art work of Haskell
Jewelry, many attributed to Larry Austin, about whom little is known. As you
can see they are slightly larger than life but very accurately depict the jewelry of
that era in all it's lush beaded splendor. These would have been used to
promote Miriam Haskell Jewelry in shops and publications, circa 1930-40s

Advertising
illustrations
Haskell used the original art work to create both
glossy and parchment advertisements. These were distributed to the shops and
boutiques who carried Haskell jewelry in the 1930-40s. Some of these are
signed by Miriam Haskell, and some of the Haskell signatures were faked by
others at the time.
