About
Something Vintage Jewelry Rentals offers vintage costume jewelry rentals for special occasions .
The company was founded by Paula Innocenti. It started when Paula inherited some vintage jewelry pieces. At the time, she didn’t know much about vintage jewelry. In fact, she had planned on selling the pieces. While photographing one of the necklaces, she noticed that it was stamped “Bogoff.” Curious, she researched the engraving, opening up a world of beauty and art.
Research revealed that “Bogoff” was a Polish émigré who became one of the most sought-after jewelry designers of the ‘40s, ‘50s, and ‘60s. More importantly, Paula discovered that Bogoff was one of a handful of great designers who transferred diamond and precious stone designs into their own rhinestone creations, which were on par with or superior to the precious stone jewelry.
She then started researching other vintage costume jewelry designers to find that each had their own unique history and style. Among them were Eisenberg, Kramer (chosen to produce for Christian Dior), Boucher, Ciner, Coro, Alice Caviness, Lisner, Matisse, Mazer, Schreiner, H. Pomerantz, Selro, Joseph Wiesner, Weiss, Volupte, and many other vintage designers.

Instead of selling the jewelry, Paula decided to share these beautiful pieces and their rich history by making them available to women of taste through a rental platform.
