Laykin Jewels Noir
Helen Walker in Laykin et Cie Jewels in the 1949 Film Noir Classic; "Impact"
Laykin et Cie experienced great creative expansion and commercial success in Hollywood and more broadly Los Angeles of the 1930s - 1950s. Intertwined with the film industry and it's notables, the clientele was a veritable who's who.
From producers like Orson Wells and Daryll Zanuck to actors such as Edward G. Robinson, Constance Bennett, Norma Talmadge, Claire Trevor, Lana Turner and Jimmy Stewart; the firms commercial and social engagement was in large measure one with Hollywood. As a result many films produced during the period included Laykin jewels in the production.
Of these films several were in the film noir category. Jewels included or inspired by this era; we call Jewels Noir. They are sometimes bold, sometimes whimsical and always unique and ready for the silver screen.
