Lisner jewelry is indeed vintage constume jewelry.  The company was founded in 1904, and made jewelry all the way up into the 1970s.  Lisner jewelry was last made in 1979.

When I think of Lisner, I think "leaf".  The reason being is twofold.  First, they made a lot of jewelry with a leaf or nature look and feel.  Second, the most famous of the Lisner jewelry sets is the thermoset maple leaves parure, that was made in many color combinations.  It's very lovely and very collectible.

Lisner is also famous for the use of AB (aurora borealis) rhinestones.  As you can see (hopefully anyway) the demi parure on this post has both a leaf design and AB rhinestones.

Prior to World War 2, Lisner imported and marketed Schiaparelli jewelry in the United States.  No word about after WW2, so presumably they no longer did.

Lisner Jewelry Marks

Although founded in 1904, Lisner either didn't produce jewelry before 1938, or they did not mark it.  These, however, are the general dates and marks that Lisner did utilize.

  • "Lisner" in block letters, first used 1938.
  • "Lisner" in block letters with a copyright mark, first used 1955.
  • "Lisner" with the "L" elongated and the "isner" in small print, first used 1959.
  • "Lisner" in script in an oval logo, first used 1959.

As with all vintage costume jewelry manufacturers, these are general dates.

Lisner is one of the manufacturers that I check on fairly frequently.  I'm always on a hunt for a well-priced maple leaf set to add to my collection.  And although a lot of the Lisner jewelry is nature-inspired, not all of it is.  There's a little something for everyone.

In general, and except for the maple leaf set, Lisner jewelry is fairly affordable to collectors on a budget.  The jewelry is well-made and lovely.  You can find a .  You can also see just a small example of their lovely jewelry below.  Click the item to get more details.
