Questions & Comments
How old is it? I never heard of Sarah so i was curious the age? Ty
Emmons, no longer in business, was founded by Charles Stuart in Newark, NY. He also founded it's sister company, Sarah Coventry. There is a thorough and interesting discussion of this manufacturer in Lillian Baker's "Fifty Years of Collectible Fashion Jewelry, 1925 - 1975. According to Lillian Baker----the Emmons Co. was Incorporated in Feb. 1949 and then Sarah Coventry came into being 8 months later. It was only sold at home parties---mostly in the 50's and is now collectible and getting scarce.
Sarah Coventry had a Lifetime Guarantee...the cards stated "may be sent back for repair to: P.O. Box 7899, Warwick, RI 02887. Please include handling charge of $1.50." I'm not sure if this is still being honored. Sarah Coventry discontinued operations and home parties in 1984. The better sets and pieces are expected to rise in price and every collector should have a few pieces of Sarah Coventry in their collection.
