Dorrie showing her jewellery at an exhibition. (Photograph: London News Agency Photos Ltd, 46 Fleet Street, London, EC4) Dorrie's 1935 exhibition was described as follows in the Times, and advertised in the Times May 27th, 1935 (Anon 1935a). ". . . and Miss Dorrie Nossiter hand-wrought jewellery. This last combines a delicate fantasy in the settings with good taste in colour in the choice of stones, a slightly exotic flavour being an advantage. An ear-shaped jewel, to cover the whole ear, must be a novelty." (Anon 1935b)
The card below was given out by Dorrie this one isn't complete but shows also that Dorrie's Jewellery was advertised as being "By appointment to the late King George V" on the opposite side can see a "To" for additional appointments to royalty but as yet not sure to whom this applied.
