I received my first piece of Monet jewelry for my birthday when I was 12 years old.   It was a gold-plated charm bracelet. My first charm was a paint palette with pretty different color stones around the sides.  I was artistic and loved art.  I still have this Monet charm bracelet which I later added more charms as I traveled.   The gold plate still looks nice all these years later.

Monet began in the late 1930s. Because of the economy, many women couldn’t afford fine jewelry therefore quality costume jewelry became very popular. Monet produces a high end line of fashionable costume Jewelry. One of the most notable features of Monet jewelry is that all of their necklaces have triple plating, whether it is gold or silver. By this, they mean the thickness of the jewelry. Under the lead of Edmond Granville, and later on Liz Claiborne, it eventually became a world-class fashion brand. Everyone knows that the 80s jewelry was loud and colorful, with people wanting to stand out in style – and Monet took note of this. This is why most of the 1980s Monet jewelry pieces focused on metalwork design, making every piece seem daring and unique.
