Beau Jewels Costume Jewelry
Beau Jewels jewelry is for anyone who loves rhinestones done in a feminine style. It tends to be colorful (few pieces with all clear rhinestones) and eye-catching.

Not a lot is known about Beau Jewels and its history. The jewelry is thought to be made by Bowman Foster, Inc. which is no longer in existence.
The jewelry is thought to have a timeframe of sometime in the 1950s to sometime in the 1970s.
Beau Jewels Markings
Interestingly, Beau Jewels seems to have marked only the earrings! The mark is "Beau Jewels" imprinted into the metal (not raised or on a cartouche).
Because Beau Jewels only marked the earrings, there are a lot of unmarked pins out there! The only way to know for sure is to find the marked earrings and make the match.
The construction of a Beau Jewels piece tends to be lightweight for its size and brooches were made with lots of rivets. But don't let the lightweight fool you -- the jewelry is still made well.
Until you are familiar with the style of Beau Jewels pieces, it's best to buy only earrings or sets that include marked earrings. (Me, I can't wait to find the brooch that goes with the earrings above.)
