Diamond jewelry that stresses neither flowers nor geometrical designs was shown by Shreve, Crump and Low of Boston in the “Diamonds U.S.A.” fashion show October 20 in New York City at The Plaza. Button-like ear-clips have diamonds generously sprinkled in the platinum, and the neckline necklace has repeated a button-like motif, set with round diamond and linked together with marquise-shaped links with a shining marquise diamond in the center of each link. The diamond bracelet features brilliant-cut and baguette diamonds in a variegates link pattern. The unique wristwatch is shaped like an old carriage lamp -- but brilliantly lighted with diamonds! Michel of Helena Rubinstein created the coiffure to go with these diamonds, which includes an engagement -cut diamond for over six carats. Diamonds by Shreve, Crump & Low, Boston, Massachusetts. Coiffure by Michel of Helena Rubenstein.
