However, the first branded jewelry was not "CORO" but "CR," as the name was derived from the first two letters of each partner's surname. Sadly, Emanuel Cohn passed away in 1910, but the name remained Cohn and Rosenberger (CR). By the mid-1920s, the "Coro" company had become the largest jewelry producer on the continent. In 1937, the company began marking its higher-end "Coro Craft" products. Notably, Coro had several subsidiary companies. Francois, in particular, was established for marketing purposes to promote a better and more expensive line of jewelry. This brand produced jewelry between 1944 and 1960. Another "daughter" company, "Vendome," produced high-end jewelry from 1944 to 1979. After World War II, trademarks included "Corocraft," "Coro Pegasus," and "Coro Originals." Ultimately, "Coro" ceased jewelry production in 1979. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51079525687_dfb3d5d37c_o.jpg
