Established in 1949, it is recognised as the oldest direct selling jewellery company in the world. They did not design their own jewellery but used other manufacturers to produce their jewellery.

You'll find pieces made from both silvertone and gold-colored metals, often set with large faux pearls and other gemstone simulants. Sarah Coventry jewelry was most popular during the 1950s and 1960s and continued to be offered at home parties for a few years after the company's 1981 bankruptcy.
