About Sarah Coventry

Emmons Home Fashions began in 1948 headed by Lyman K. Stuart.  He named the company in honor of his mother, Caroline Emmons Stuart.  Later the company’s name changed to Emmons Jewelry, Inc. 

Stuart introduced Sarah Coventry jewelry shortly after establishing Emmons. The new line honored Lyman Stuart’s granddaughter, Sarah Coventry Beale (although some references claim that Sarah was his daughter). Both lines used home parties to sell their jewelry.  Coventry jewelry was typically less expensive than the Emmons-branded designs.   

Emmons contracted with jewelry manufacturers for their designs.  Jewelry for both brands came in matching sets and designs covered all eras of jewelry.  Sarah Coventry jewelry was very popular during the 1950s and 1960s  and continued to be offered at home parties for a few years after Emmons 1981 bankruptcy, but eventually succumbed to competition by Avon.
