Marino Vintage Jewelry

Marino vintage jewelry is rather hard to pin down, age-wise. Why?

It's primarily because there were two different companies using the Marino mark! One was Marino Manufacturing Company, based in Providence, Rhode Island. They appear to have been making costume jewelry in the late 1950s to early 1980s timeframe. The jewelry is signed "Marino" in all capital block letters.

But there's a second player in the Marino jewelry search. The second company was Marino Jewelry Company, Inc. and they were located in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. They made costume jewelry starting in 1932, and it's unknown when they stopped (or indeed if they actually have stopped). Their mark is "Marino" in script. However, they were in business at least until 1978, when an ad for their jewelry appeared in the magazine Vogue.

My guess is that most of the jewelry found for this company is for Marino Manufacturing (as that's what I've seen the most of.) I've not been able to identify a particular signature look for it, and it does seem to span several decade styles.

At any rate, here is some Marino jewelry for you to browse. Happy hunting!
