Fallon & Kappel was a costume jewelry company based in New York City. It did not produce jewelry under its own brand, but produced items for other well-known jewelry companies, including Eisenberg and Hattie Carnegie.
Some facts from the history of the brand:
In 1936, the Fallon & Kappel factory began collaborating with the Eisenberg brand. Designer Ruth Kamke, who worked at Fallon, created a unique style for Eisenberg jewelry.
By the 1950s, the success of the jewelry line was so great that the Eisenberg company completely abandoned the production of clothing, concentrating all its efforts on jewelry.
According to some sources, Fallon & Kappel signed an exclusive agreement with Eisenberg, according to which the latter could only buy products from their factory. This agreement was valid until 1972, when Fallon & Kappel closed.
Collectors prize jewelry made by Fallon & Kappel in the 1930s and ’40s, especially pieces with figurative designs.
