The history of Jewel Crest is closely tied to Donald Hamilton Simpson, one of Australiaβs most recognised jewellery designers from the late 1940s through to the early 1970s. Simpson produced costume jewellery under several trademarks, including Jewel Crest, reflecting the high quality and craftsmanship of his pieces.
His jewellery was traditionally made using quality materials such as silver, gold, rhodium plating, Austrian crystals, cultured pearls, and Aurora Borealis rhinestones, often designed in elegant styles inspired by Art Deco and classic floral motifs.
Today, Jewel Crest jewellery is highly collectible, admired for its sparkle, craftsmanship and its place in Australian jewellery history.
