Whitney Boin
Whitney Boin was an American jewelry designer who began his career in the early 20th century. He was known for his innovative designs, particularly his use of geometric shapes and modernist styles. Boin's jewelry was popular in the 1930s and 1940s and was sold in high-end department stores such as Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue.
Boin's designs were influenced by the Art Deco and Bauhaus movements, and he often used materials such as sterling silver, 14k and 18k gold, and semi-precious stones in his pieces. He was particularly known for his use of the channel setting technique, which involved setting stones flush against each other in a metal channel to create a continuous line of color.
Boin's jewelry pieces are highly collectible today and can be found in antique stores and at auction. Some of his most popular pieces include geometric brooches, cufflinks, and rings featuring bold designs and striking color combinations.
