Vintage Coro Mexican silver jewelry attracts a variety of collectors
During World War II metals were in short supply in the USA, and many jewelry companies contracted with Mexican silversmiths to produce jewelry on their behalf. Coro, for many years the world’s largest manufacturer of fashion and costume jewelry, was no exception. In 1942 the company contracted with Hector Aguilar to design and produce jewelry, a relationship that lasted for about seven years.
Vintage Coro silver jewelry from Mexico is sought after by Coro collectors, vintage Mexican jewelry collectors, and, often, those who collect vintage Modernist jewelry.
