Joseph Mazer
Joseph Mazer was a costume jewelry designer who founded the Mazer Brothers jewelry company in New York City in 1927. The company became known for producing high-quality costume jewelry that resembled fine jewelry, often featuring rhinestones, enamel, and other faux gemstones set in silver or gold-tone metal.
Mazer's designs were often inspired by the Art Deco and Art Nouveau movements, and his jewelry was popular among Hollywood stars and fashion icons of the time. Mazer's pieces were characterized by their attention to detail, quality materials, and intricate designs.
During the 1940s, the Mazer Brothers company became one of the largest producers of costume jewelry in the world, and they continued to produce high-quality pieces well into the 1950s. Joseph Mazer retired in the early 1950s, and the company was eventually sold in the 1960s and renamed to "Mazer Creations."
