About my DeLizza & Elster Jewelry - I am an avid student and collector of D&E Jewelry. I am also a member of several online groups that seek to study and identify both D&E jewelry and costume jewelry in general. When in doubt, I consulted Mr. DeLizza through email, and retain all those emails for reference.
