I found this set scattered in different places in a store I had not been before.
I think they match.
I would date it to around the 1960's, based on the stones, but it could be a bit later.
There are no markings.
The rivets make it easy to wear because the construction is lighter than most other pieces.
Thanks for looking:)

Another beauty Gudrun - great posts today! I actually think your whole jewelry collection is truly gorgeous
The back would suggest it's a D & E set, (see link), and if it is, congrats they're extremely collectible, fairly scarce and therefore $$$.

Congrats.
It's entirely possible that I have egg covering my face. This is a quote from the link I sent you. " If you find a brooch containing dozens of rivets when the back is examined, it's likely that is not a Juliana piece." I believe the source of the link is very trustworthy. So, have a look at the back of the bracelet and that construction might give you a better idea. Your set really 'looks' like a set, but as you say you found the pieces in different areas so it is possible I was correct in my first post - (she says hanging her head in shame, as well as clutching at straws!)
Very pretty Freiheit, love it:-)
Thanks so much for all of your nice and interesting comments:

I kind of knew that it wasn't a D&E set because it is too light. D&E feels a lot heavier and the construction is different. I recently saw a Judy Lee brooch but didn't buy it because it was rather pricey and very fragile - but I can see why one could think that there is some resemblance.
I read that the rivets were used by American and Austrian makers. I guess I have to keep searching for an answer.
Many thanks for loving my set:

Thanks so much for your kind comments, Mary. Actually, I have been sick for some time but I am much better now. It is surprising how stress can make you sick or how being sick can stress you out! In any case, I am planning to focus on what is really important: Family and health! Oh well, and a little collecting, too - LOL!
Ms.CrystalShip, thanks you so much helping me to find out what I got here. I will have a good look and hope to get a match/answer:)
