A Short History...
Belgian designer William DeLillo moved to the United States in 1953 and worked for Tiffany, Harry Winston and Cartier. In 1968, he established his own jewellery design company with Robert Clark, who had previously designed for Miriam Haskell. They established a celebrity clientele which included Liza Minnelli, Elizabeth Taylor, Gloria Vanderbilt and the Duchess of Windsor. DeLillo collections were sold in Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and I. Magnin. But, the brand also created one off pieces too.

The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:
- Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.
- Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.
- Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.
- Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.
- If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.
