Vintage Costume Jewelry

Carole Tanenbaum is a world-renowned collector of vintage jewelry. She has given a series of lectures on vintage costume jewelry at the Royal Ontario Museum, the International Society of Appraises, and is often called upon for her expertise in the field.

Fabulous Fakes: A Passion for Vintage Costume Jewelry, the book featuring Carole Tanenbaum's extraordinary personal collection is available at all major book stores.

Wherever she goes she is on the hunt for the next great WOW factor in accessories. In her own way, Carol has transformed vintage jewelry into wearable art of which she is the curator.
