Ralph Polcini, who immigrated from Italy to the USA, founded his company: "Leading Jewelry Manufacturing Company" in 1911 in New York. From 1948, he signed his fashion jewelry collections with the brand: "Ledo". When Ralph died in 1954, his son Damon took over the business and renamed the company and the jewelry to "Polcini". Polcini was especially known for its elegant and often eye-catching jewelry, which was popular in the 1960s and 1970s. The jewelry was characterized by sparkling rhinestones, abstract designs, and high-quality materials. Polcini pieces were an elegant and popular accessory for glamorous occasions and they have a collector's value today.
