Gorgeous vintage gold-plated rope earrings by iconic vintage costume jewelry brand, Monet. ABOUT MONET: Monet was founded in 1919 by brothers Michael and Joseph Chernow as a monogramming business. The company did so well that in 1934 they hired a designer with a background from Cartier and entered the costume jewelry market. The designer, Edmond Mario Granville, would remain with the company until his death in 1969. Their popularity surged following WWII, as their high quality, clean and tailored designs appealed to the new female workforce. Monet designs are highly collectible to this day and have stood up amazingly to the test of time.
