STANLEY HAGLER N.Y.C. Gold Baroque Pearl Brooch Pin / Earrings Set Seed Halger specialized in faux pearl jewelry, using individually strung pearls to highlight their quality. This was in marked contrast to other makers of faux pearl jewelry who grouped them together to hide individual flaws and inconsistencies. His baroque pearls were hand-blown glass beads dipped in pearl resin up to 15 times to achieve maximum luminosity.
Opulent and complex, Stanley Hagler's jewelry combines cont...emporary design with antique components. He always used the finest materials such as hand-blown glass, Swarovski crystals, and Russian gold plating on filigree. Pieces were wired by hand, with stones and crystals prong-set into place rather than glued. His work has a strong architectural style and pieces look equally good whether they are viewed from the front or from the back.
One of the intriguing features of Stanley Hagler's jewelry is that it is often multi-purpose. The clasp of a necklace can be transformed into a hair ornament or pin, necklaces can become double bracelets, and certain earrings can be given an alternative look, simply by adding or removing various components.
During the course of his career, Hagler won 11 Swarovski awards for "Great Designs in Jewelry." He always designed jewelry he thought was "just plain pretty, " although his earlier pieces were less complex than later ones.
Hagler also gave much thought to how, when, and where a woman wears jewelry: earring had to hang perfectly, while a necklace should lie in a particular way as to be flattering. Although his jewelry was often large in scale, he varied the size according to current fashions. The name tags were also smaller or larger, depending on the size of the piece.
As well as his own jewelry, Hagler produced various designs for other companies, including jeweled swimming flippers, wigs, and jewelry that matched a prestigious range of luggage.
