From
The Collectors Index

The Trifari Jewelry History The Trifari jewelry company is founded around 1918 as Trifari and Krussman later in 1920s Carl Fishel joins company and becomes Trifari Krussman and Fishel. In early 1930 Alfred Philippe becomes head designer after joining the company, and under his leadership the real jewelry look in the Trifari jewelry line is born. He introduced his famous crown pin in 1941, and the success of the company was almost certain from that time on. It became the second largest company, second only to Coro, but the quality was to belong to Trifari. The crown above the T was to become their trademark.
