New York—Star and style icon Lauren Bacall has partnered with Weinman Bros. to create a branded jewelry collection bearing her name.

The collection, "Bacall," will feature a variety of gems and price points, and will hit retail stores this fall.

Founded in 1912 by David and Sam Weinman, Weinman Bros. is a privately held manufacturing firm run by Robert Weinman, grandson of founder David. Prior to the launch of Bacall, the company focused on its Generations 1912 collection, which features antique-reproduction pieces based on the original molds and models used by the company's founders.

Bacall's film career began in 1944 when she played opposite Humphrey Bogart in To Have and to Have Not. The couple went on to co-star in three movies and to get married.

Bacall also made several Broadway appearances throughout her career, winning Tony Awards in 1970 and 1981.

In 1997, Bacall received the Kennedy Center Honors in recognition of her contributions to American culture.
