Collector's Note:
This demi-parure is a verified Juliana (DeLizza & Elster) book piece, pictured in recognized collector references. Sets like this, especially in the rich autumn palette of amber, topaz, orange, and aurora borealis, are increasingly scarce in today’s market. Juliana jewelry was produced for a short window in the 1960s and never signed, which makes documented examples like this particularly important for provenance.
As collector demand has risen, many seasoned enthusiasts are holding onto their Juliana book pieces, making opportunities to acquire them rarer each year. The combination of documented status, bold design, and exceptional condition ensures that this set will remain a cornerstone example of mid-century costume jewelry artistry.
