His father had been a merchant in Germany, and in 1869, he and his two brothers went into business selling fine goods imported from Europe (e.g., jewelry, hatpins, crystal giftware). David continued that tradition. From 1904 to his death in 1923, David and his cousin Saul owned and operated the D. Lisner Company selling jewelry imported from Europe wholesale, particularly Elsa Schiaparelli’s Parisian jewelry. As the storm clouds of war gathered across Europe, it became difficult to impossible to import jewelry. To stay in business, the Lisner company would have to produce jewelry domestically. Fortuitously, Urie Mandle, a jewelry company owner, joined Lisner as a full partner. He moved the company to Providence, Rhode Island, a hub of jewelry manufacturing and built a retail jewelry shop there selling only “Made in America” jewelry for every taste and budget. Another timely happening brought the Lisner company into its own: the invention of Lucite by the DuPont Company in 1931. The colored acrylic plastic was perfect for the Art Deco styles of the day. The company designed their own trendy jewelry lines with the Lucite, clear and colored rhinestones, iridescent rhinestones (such as the Aurora Borealis by Swarovski), lava stones and chrome, silver plate and lustrous black lacquered metals. In 1953, Victor Ganz, the son of Saul, became president of Lisner. He brought with him an innate sense of aesthetics and impeccable taste honed by his life-long interest in art. He oversaw both the manufacturing and creative processes. In the 1960s, Lisner jewelry had clean, sharp edges and a tendency toward the geometric and drew its inspiration from nature with leaves, flowers. Other notable Lisner designs featured translucent, plastic “jelly” leaves. In the 1970s, Lisner bought the Richelieu Pearl Company and became “Lisner-Richelieu,” producing jewelry that would rank among the best of the time. In 1979, Victoria Creations bought Lisner-Richelieu, and by 1985, the jewelry no longer bore the Lisner name. Lisner Jewelry Designers Sidney Welicky is the only designer whose name appears in the Lisner archives. When he retired in the 1960s, Victor Ganz, president of the company, and his Vice President of Product Development, Iraida Garey became the designers. With Ganz’s artistic talents, he also designed very successful retail packaging and advertising. Lisner Jewelry Marks Although early Lisner designs were produced by others, they bore a Lisner mark. The marks were used year after year, which sometimes makes it difficult to determine the exact age of a piece. * "LISNER" in block was the mark first used in 1935. * "Lisner" in script was first used in 1938. * “LISNER ©” in block with the copyright symbol was used after 1955. * "Lisner" in script letters with a long L in a circle was used most often in and after 1959. Materials Used in Lisner Jewelry Lucite Lisner employed the DuPont Company’s invention of colored acrylic plastic, Lucite. Large, clear cabochons (stones shaped and polished into a smooth, convex top with a flat bottom) of Lucite were used to imitate rock crystals and to form “jelly” jewelry, such as translucent leaves and flowers. They used thermoset Lucite jewelry in the 1950s-1960s, because it could be opaque or translucent and molded into almost any shape. It could have objects embedded into it, things such as abalone, shells, confetti or glitter. Rhinestones Clear and colored rhinestones, particularly Aurora Borealis, iridescent rhinestones by Swarovski. Lava Stones Lava stones, cooled volcanic lava from deep inside the earth, that can absorb essential oils so that its healing powers are contained within the jewelry you are wearing. Chrome Chrome plating, invented in 1924, is the electroplating of a thin layer of metal. The bright, shiny metal was popular in jewelry and home décor during the Art Deco era. Silver Far less expensive but equally decorative as sterling silver, silver plate is a thin layer of sterling over another metal, such as nickel. Black Japanned Metal Metal finished with a lustrous, black lacquer, originally developed to imitate the lacquer objects imported from Japan to Europe in the late sixteenth century.
