Mosell is an American jewelry company whose origins can be traced back to 1940, when its founder Frederick Mosell opened a workshop in New York. The full name of the company was “Frederick Mosell Jewelry”, but the jewelry produced only had the short brand – Mosell.
A look at the history of the brand:
– The first jewelry collection was released in April 1941.
– Between 1940 and 1941, Frederick Mosell registered two design patents in the Official Gazette of the United States Patent Office.
– In the 1950s, Helmut Roeder joined Mosell as a partner.
– On April 24, 1956, the Mosell trademark was registered in the same Official Gazette.
– In the early 1950s, Mosell products were featured in Life magazine.
– The exact date of the company’s demise remains uncertain, but historical data suggests it was in the 1960s.
Collectors especially value the figurative brooches created in the 1940s and the floral-themed jewelry produced in the 1950s and 1960s.
