Lunch At The Ritz Animal Jewelry

The Lunch at the Ritz Jewelry Company was launched in 1982 by designers Esme Hecht and Zander Elliott. These two creative designers started making some wild and funky earrings for women that wanted to break out of the traditional and current fashion jewelry trends. The first designs were called Chinese Takeout, Seafood, and Moonstar. The earrings caught on like wildfire and women everywhere were buying them up.

This breathtaking blue Lunch at the Ritz macaw pin is one of my favorite bird pins ever.

Over the years the jewelry line has expanded and now includes holiday themes, animals, western, food, and party themes to name a few. Their pieces have developed a "cult following" with devoted collectors that search out every type of design ever made. Once a new series is introduced it sells out very quickly, as the supply doesn't keep up with demand for new pieces. It's no wonder that women drool over Lunch At The Ritz Jewelry, with its sparkle and pizazz.
