Originals by Robert Information

In 1942, Robert Levy, together with David Jaffe and Irving Landsman created the Fashioncraft Jewelry Company.  They were located in New York and used the marks, Original by Robert, Fashioncraft, Fashioncraft Robert and Robert. In 1960 the name of the company was changed to Robert Originals Inc.

In 1975 Jaffe's daughter, Ellen joined the company.   Shortly after Robert's retirement the company name changed to  "Ellen designs for Robert Originals" - 1979 and in 1984 it became "Ellen Designs".

This fabulously collectible jewelry has often been compared to the work of Miriam Haskell and Stanley Hagler due to the similar use of filigree and beaded design.
