Isn’t he a beauty? These pieces from the early 60’s are becoming harder to find, and when one is found in mint condition, the price is way up there! This 2 inch golden lion is pave’ set in clear RS, with a ruby red cabochon eye. Being close to 60 years old, he is in wonderful vintage condition! I have seen one other lion such as this “in the wild” and his owner wanted over $400 for him...yikes! Though I understand why. These early pieces command high prices because of their rarity.
There are more reasonable pieces out there, the ones with “A “C” in a circle( copyright) KJL ( no periods) c. 1990, known to be used on pieces made in mass for QVC” ( info from CJCI, researching vintage jewelry). These are everywhere, easy to find, and relatively cheap in price, though even these pieces are on the rise. ( just to make it clear to some, I am not imputing these pieces, merely stating they are easier to come by, thus the price is a lot lower)
To see a wonderful collection of gorgeous 1960’s Kenneth Jay Lane pieces right here on CW, go to “sammytheopulenthippo” !
ENJOY!
Very regal! And, yes Sammy has some wonderful pieces.
Sincere thanks to...

Thank you all for the loves dears!
And yes Mary, what I wouldn’t give to have Sammy’s collection, though she told me she sold a lot of them...:(
Where was I ?
Oh dear!! I might have something for you. Thanks for telling about other logos including the c (copyright) KJL that is everywhere thanks to QVC. I had no idea, but I think it's KJL QVC at the very least and not a fake. I'll get it in the mail tomorrow.
Oh Mary!
I’m so excited, I’m giddy!
Poor mail carrier is gonna get beat up until it arrives! Ha!
You are such a dear for thinking of me!
Don't get too excited. I wish it was a Sammy animal bangle. I remember seeing those at Saks in the late 80's-90's. They were not my style. That's another reason CW is fun.
BTW.. Mary, I love my KJL rhinestone bangle!
Thank you so much for thinking of me!
Thanks for stopping by Leanne, glad to see you back.
I appreciate you loving my older KJL!
Beautiful Lion. At first glance I thought it was a griffin, but then I saw he doesn't have wings. Nice piece!
Awe, thanks Scott! I do have a piece with wings...coming very soon! So good to have you back!!
