I know these are Sarah Coventry, I'm just wondering if there is a common name used for this style or if anyone can date it. Also, I have the matching bracelet and necklace... I have seen sets referred to as a specic name here a number of times but I can't remeber what it is.

I would date them to the 1960's or 70's.
I don't know what you call them but would love to know as I have several pair.

Lady - we must either have something that is somewhat rare or so common that no one would bother to list it because I searched thru all of the active and completed Coventry earring and silver listings and can't find a single other pair of the earrings,the necklace or bracelet I have.

The name you are looking for is Demi Parure - a 3 piece S.C. rhinestone Demi should do quite well

I guess I didn't have my coffee when I read this - I thought you were looking for a name for the style.
The funny part is that I am listing a Demi Parure at this very moment.

Why wouyld this be a demi-parure? If you have the bracelet, necklace and earrings, I think its a parure...

Actually I think the whole set would also have a brooch. I'm no expert though.

I think pmelcher is correct. That's what I was told a couple of years ago when selling a lot of costume jewelry sets. You need four pieces to make it parure.
