ELVIRA JACKIE CORP, a Miami, Florida-based family enterprise, operated from the 1970s until its closure in 1997. Records from 1987 identify Ulysses Pino as president, Elvira Pino as treasurer, and Jacqueline Causer as secretary. Despite a lifespan of under twenty years, the firm produced distinctive items that have since become sought-after collectibles.
Brooch with pearls and rhinestones.
Craftsmen typically employed materials such as porcelain, plastic, art glass, imitation pearls, and rhinestones. They also applied hand-painted details, featuring red lips, black brows, expressive eyes with lashes, and subtle blue eyeshadow.
The designs evoke the Art Deco aesthetic of “The Great Gatsby” era women. Notably, every vintage piece bears the signature “Elvira and Jackie” on its reverse side.
