HOBE
William Hobe, scion of a prominent European family of goldsmiths, founded this American costume jewelry company in 1927. Hobe jewelry was very popular in theatrical circles. It was used by Florence Ziegfield to costume the showgirls in his Ziegfield Follies, and later was widely used in Hollywood productions during the 1950s. William Hobe registered more than 100 patents for jewelry designs and was an antique jewelry scholar. He sometimes created his jewelry pieces personally, by hand, using sterling, 14K gold, and semi-precious gemstones. Jewelry from this company is known for its extraordinary workmanship and attention to detail. Hobe jewelry is still in production under the management of descendents of the original family.
