Bugbee & Niles (often marked "B.N.") was a respected American jewelry manufacturer founded in 1859 in Massachusetts, active until 1992, and renowned for high-quality, mid-century costume jewelry. The company produced popular rhinestone-studded floral brooches, necklaces, and, most notably, screw-back earrings often in gold-tone or silver-tone settings.
Known for mid-century costume jewelry, particularly 1940s–1950s floral themes, rhinestone starbursts, and "orchid" designs.
Pieces are often noted for having durable construction and a "fine quality" feel, frequently featuring colored glass (such as amethyst or aquamarine) surrounded by clear crystals.
