The Dark Crystal
Art Robert Peak (1982)
This sparkling necklace is interesting because, unlike many jewelry pieces in Hollywood that are attributed to Eugene Joseff (Joseff of Hollywood), Paramount was the only studio to have their own jewelry department. Because all of the films it has been spotted in over the years are attributed to Paramount studios, while it’s possible this is a Joseff of Hollywood piece, it likely came from the studio’s own jewelry collection.
The piece was worn by scream queen Evelyn Ankers as Isabel Lewis in the 1943 film 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒂𝒅 𝑮𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒍.
In 1945, the necklace was seen again, worn by Martha O’Driscoll as Katie Wells the following year in 𝑼𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝑾𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒏 𝑺𝒌𝒊𝒆𝒔. Find out where else this necklace has been used at Bit.ly/Access188
