Google on Monocraft: Monocraft Products Company, the precursor to Monet jewelry, was founded in 1927 by brothers Michael and Joseph Chernow in Brooklyn, New York. Initially, they focused on creating monograms and initials for items like handbags, capitalizing on the trend of personalized accessories. By the late 1930s, they expanded their offerings to include costume jewelry under the Monet name, shifting from monogramming to a broader range of fashionable pieces.

Google on Costume jewelry, initially created as an affordable alternative to fine jewelry, has a rich history spanning centuries. It evolved from a desire to imitate fine jewelry’s look and style using less expensive materials, and eventually gained its own unique identity, reflecting fashion trends and cultural shifts.
