195061482Tokyo Japan: Mikimoto ca. 1950. Oblong folio. 14.5 x 11.5 x 1.4 in. Original wooden shadow box sample display case holding 10 opened & cleaned pearl oyster shells on white padded fibers and 5 varying grades of cultured pearls showing progression of growth minor scuffing to corners of polished wood frame backed w/ birch plywood box a VG exemplar. Commercial cultured pearls were first developed by Kokichi Mikimoto who succeeded in creating semi-spherical cultured pearls in 1893 by developing the exacting method of inserting grains into pearl oysters and harvesting two years. later. The company exhibited at many International World’s Fairs in the succeeding years and following World War I gained a foothold in Europe during the Art Deco jewelry phase. Virulently opposed by European jewelers who attacked cultured pearls as imitations rather than real pearls Mikimoto would win the lawsuit at the “Paris Trial†and quickly established the custom of distributing trade literature explaining the pearl process as well as visual sample cases. Although the 1930’s saw the emergence of very good glass imitation pearls cultured pearls continued to be valued and in post-World War II America reached their heyday with elegance and femininity favored with designs inspired by Grace Kelly and later Jackie Kennedy of single strands of pearls and pearl studs. These sample boxes continued to remind customers that the pearls were actually cultivated and harvested from oysters.

193019806AB1930. n.p. 1930ties 48 : 36 cm. Four sheets with coloured aquatints partly hightened in gold Six designs for Ladies evening dresses. One plate signed Boris. While men's style changed little women's looks changed significantly over the course of the 1930s. The previous Roaring Twenties were still characterized by a new very androgynous image of women and the so-called Flapper Girl was a symbol of the independent modern woman. But in the 30s this trend changed to the complete opposite: the elegant lady was popular again. This was reflected above all in the rediscovery of the female figure. Reason for this: The woman as a caring mother and housewife was THE ideal of the time. This conservative image was also accompanied by a hyperfeminization of women. This value attitude was particularly evident in the emphasis on the high waist. unknown
