Vintage J.J. (Jonette) Jewelry

In 1935 in Providence, R.I., The Providence Jewelry Company was founded by Abraham Lisker.  In 1938 Abraham’s brother Nathan joined the company and the company name was changed to Lisker & Lisker.  During the years of World War II the company stopped operations and after the war in 1953 they reorganized and reincorporated  as the Jonette Jewelry Company using the new name by combining the first two names of their parents John and Etta and the brand trademark J.J. was created from that and used in 1970.  The business then ceased operations in 2006.

J.J. jewelry was affordable and well made as well as for their unique figural and Christmas figurines and is very popular with collectors.
