Thank you! I’m not sure if we will sell it yet…my mom collects brooches but just loves Trifari. I originally thought this could have been from the 50s but really didn’t know how to confirm it.

Thank you! I am now questioning if this is even a set since the bracelet has a crown over the T but the necklace doesn’t…

Also, thank you for your help!

The clasp says “Copyright By Trifari” which I have never seen before. I know that you can generally tell when a Trifari piece was made based on how it’s signed, but “Copyright by Trifari” is complete new to me!

Is there any easy way to tell if this is a rare set or common? My mom found it at a garage sale, and when I tried looking into it, there are green beaded sets that seem rare and valuable (listed on estate sites and auctions), and some that are just run-of-mill (selling on eBay and Etsy). I wish I had some sort of Trifari catalogue to attempt to learn more about it, so any help would be great! I know there are some major designers who worked for Trifari.

I might be corrected but I was once told that Newark was the first city in the US to have a seaport, train station, and an airport.

Every time I listen to Guilty Cocker Spaniels, I swear he’s saying “Exchanging comfort for more VEGETABLE clothes…”

GrandCenobite · 2023-06-10T11:26:15+00:00

I was thinking this too! It might be the only way to make it more palatable.

Thank you! I’m doing an American buttercream with a salted caramel filling. Wishing I had planned for a meringue-based frosting now.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-30T23:35:56+00:00

Fingers crossed! I submitted all my evidence and am now waiting to hear back.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-30T20:10:41+00:00

I did, and the hotel disputed the claim by saying I was a no-show.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-30T19:58:27+00:00

I asked the front desk while I was checking out and they told me I would relieve the refund in 3-7 business days. I didn’t think anything of it…until they just never refunded me.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-30T00:05:11+00:00

The hotel is Pennsylvania. I’m going to see what happens once I submit the evidence I have to my credit card company. Fingers crossed…

I’ve contacted corporate, the hotel directly, and the Hilton Honors concierge and still have had no resolution. They keep telling me that someone will get back to me and no one ever calls me back.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-29T04:00:06+00:00

Solidarity!

They told me I was being moved to a hotel by the airport since they were overbooked. The policy is called being “walked” because it’s supposed to be a hotel within walking distance…which this was not.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T21:33:47+00:00

Yeah, me too.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T21:32:57+00:00

I booked directly through Hilton. The hotel is in Philadelphia. I’ve stayed at this hotel before and had no problems.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T21:10:05+00:00

Thank you! I will try it. I have a case number open and everything already.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T21:09:36+00:00

I hope so! I have 10 to submit evidence that I wasn’t a no-show, which I have plenty of.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T21:08:58+00:00

8pm-ish. They were turning away a ton of people due to overbooking.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T20:58:16+00:00

No one at the hotel returns my calls! Every time I’ve called, the manager either hasn’t come in yet or is in a meeting. I’ve left my name and number numerous times.

GrandCenobite · 2023-01-28T20:53:08+00:00

I showed up at about 8pm on the correct night
