Lost in history, bound in myth. That’s what I always think when come across very old things like this fantastic ring of three carved intaglio seals.

The largest of the three fobs is in 15 karat gold and shows a the initial I or J in a belted garter, a sword through the garter has a fist at the end holding a spear which drips with blood! The two smaller seals are in 9 karat gold and the orange carnelian one shows a Lyre with the phrase “All’s Well” while the other has the scripted words ‘Ricordate Di Me’ or ‘Remember Me’, done in chalcedony. These three fobs have likely lived together on this ring for many decades, they were made around 1830 in the Georgian era and the largest measures 40 mm high, 30 mm wide and 18.5 mm across; the pendant weighs 21.1 grams altogether.

Amazing Antique Victorian 18k Gold Pink Pearl Bangle Bracelet in Original Fitted Box
Sold Out - $ 2,850.00
For me it began with the box. I spotted it closed inside a dealers case one Sunday morning at the Horticultural Hall show in London. At first, because it was closed, I thought she was just selling the box, but upon inquiry she smiled and pulled it out of the case. She handed it to me and explained that she had just purchased it and hadn't had time to get it out. When I opened the box I was immediately smitten. Inside was this stunning bangle, perfect and original.
The style and workmanship of this bangle and it's box are simply top-notch. The bangle features an array of 17 perfectly color matched rosy pink pearls set in a very Classical design with 2 side pearls set into eight pointed stars. The balance and feel of this bangle are just perfection. The box is just the icing on this cake, done in rich royal blue velvet and silk and marked with the name of the retailer 'Goldsmith's Alliance Limited. Cornhill, London. It is completely hand made in leather with gold embossing and was clearly made to fit this bangle, which has benefited by being kept in excellent condition.
It is Mid-Victorian and was made around 1870. It is most certainly English although it bears no marks. It tests as 18 karat gold and weighs 26.5 grams out of the box. It is on the smaller side and would fit a wrist up to 7 inches around, but no more. Is a fantastic bangle which shows the highest quality of workmanship. A truly important piece of jewelry worthy of the most discerning collector!

Ancient Roman Coin Austro-Hungarian Ring 14k Gold
$ 1,950.00
You can sit down and look up the latest of everything on the internet using just a small devise you hold in the palm of your hand. I wonder what the ancient Roman’s would have thought of such a devise? In many cases, those under the rule of the Roman Empire wouldn’t even know that their Emperor had changed until they saw the image of a new Emperor on a coin, some times not until years later.
This ancient Roman copper coin dates to about 27 BC, and has been wonderful set into a golden ring, which in and of itself is an antique. The ring is hand crafted in 14 karat gold and while it bears no hallmarks, based on the style and craftsmanship it dates to about 1890, and was most likely made in Austro-Hungary. The ring is a size 7.75 and weighs 6.1 grams, it measures 18.6 mm across and north to south and sits 3.5 mm off the finger. It has been carefully acid tested to determine gold content.
If you need a reminder to slow down, maybe a look at this, over four thousand year old, coin might do the trick.

Antique 14k Gold Diamond Daisy Ring
$ 1,050.00
Old cut diamonds can definitely be dangerous. The more of them you see, the more of them you desire to own! Modern brilliant cut diamonds may be nice and sparkly and prized for their proportions and symmetry, but old European cuts like this one are more like individual works of art. Hand cut by master craftsmen who spent decades learning their craft, these cutters used no computers, no lasers; using only their eyes, their experience and their hands, often cutting with tools they had made themselves. The result is a diamond with a uniqueness of character that simply cannot be found in today's modern cut stones. This lovely Art Nouveau daisy ring showcases a stunning old European cut diamond center with large cut facets that cause it to flash with slow and stunning sparks of colorful fire, all surrounded by a halo of daisy petals in gold. A stone that was made over a century ago to be worn by candlelight, but still looks fantastic in any light today.
This ring is hallmarked as crafted in 14 karat yellow gold, the center diamond is a round old European cut with a large culet, that measures 3.4x3.4x2.2 mm and weighs approximately .20 carats. It weighs 2.0 grams and is currently a size 7 US, but could easily be re-sized to fit. The ring face measures 9.7 mm north to south and it sits 2.4 mm off the finger, it narrows to 1.2 mm at the back of the band. A romantic gift or special treat, this stunning treasure would look as pretty on the hand as the first flowers of spring or a glorious a summer’s day!

Antique 15k Gold Curb Link Bracelet with Heart Padlock
$ 2,500.00
This is the kind of bracelet that holds its own as a single just fine, but plays oh, so nicely with others. Wear one, wear three, or go nuts and stack up as many as you can fit, they make a wonderful musical sound when paired up and people will hear you coming and smile.
This antique 15 karat yellow gold curb link bracelet was hand crafted in England around 1900. It was made by a master craftsman who would roll the gold and then hand form each link by wrapping the gold around pitch, then it would be slightly heated to let the pitch run out. The result is a bracelet that is light and airy while looking large and chunky. The Victorians didn’t have the same easy access to gold that we have now, so they had to make due with what they could find and they created the most beautiful hollow jewelry. This wonderful piece is 7.5 inches long and closes with a heart shaped padlock which has a safety chain for added security. The links of the bracelet measure 12 x 10 x 5 mm and the lock is 23.6 x 16.5 x 3.6 mm, it weighs 22.2 grams. Each link is marked with ’15’ for the gold content, as is the lock.

Antique 18k Gold Curb Link Bracelet with Heart Lock Dated 1902
$ 3,160.00
I was strolling through the narrow cobblestoned streets just north of Paris, in a small town not used to strangers. I found a sandwich shop and in my best broken French ordered ‘un sandwich avec jambon et fromage’ and a glass of Rosé. The man I ordered from was kind, he moved slowly, enjoying the summer’s heat. The small patio overlooked a valley of clay roofed houses and intertwining streets. I found a table and sat. As I held onto the stem of the clear glass, my bracelet caught the sun’s light, making it glow like a cave of wonders. I sipped the wine, tasting the notes of strawberry and basil, letting the flavors linger on my tongue. I noticed how my wrist looked like the sun itself, giving life to earth, making the heavens envious. I also noticed the view and the toughness of my baguette sandwich, and how the wine gave tastes to the bread that could only be found here, right here, in this place, in this moment.

Antique 18k Gold Diamond Buckle Ring Wedding Band
$ 1,150.00
I’ve always had a soft spot for buckle rings, especially when winking gypsy-set diamonds are involved. The buckle was a common motif in Victorian jewelry as it symbolized eternity. It was popularized by Queen Victoria, as so much fashion of the time was, and the design carried over into the Edwardian Era. When buckle-themed jewelry was given to another, it represented the romantic ideals of unending love and strength. The idea of one end being threaded into the other, creating a never-ending circle, was a powerful justification of its meaning. Doesn’t that just send chills up your spine and bring goosebumps to your arms?
This antique gold buckle ring was handcrafted in England around 1890. It features two old European cut diamonds, weighing an approximate total of .17 carats. The ring face measures 7.5 mm in height and 1.2 mm in depth. This ring bears the gold purity mark, “18” and the maker’s mark, “G.S”. It weighs 7.1 grams and is a size 8.25.
The buckle motif dates to the sixteenth century when it was often called a ‘garter’. The buckle signifies the unbreakable strength of loyal virtue and memory forever. Sometimes, it’s seen as a motif on memorial jewelry.

Antique 2.3 Carat Cabochon Sapphire Diamond Ring 18k Gold
$ 2,850.00
It was getting dark by the time I reached Lenore’s shop on the beautiful Prinsengracht in Amsterdam’s wonderful Jordaan neighborhood. The lights lining the bridges had popped on as I was hurrying along the waters edge, my collar turned up against the rain that was starting to fall. I was a little cold, and a little hungry and a little wet, and more than a little grumpy when I entered her warm, brightly lit shop. She had charcuterie and wine and this ring and the world seemed shiny and perfect yet again, as it does most of the time I spend in this marvelous city of lights.
Like tiny twinkling canal lights, winking rose cut diamonds adorn the richly engraved swoops and flowers carved into the shoulders of this wonderful ring. Hand crafted in buttery yellow 18 karat gold, this beauty was made in Europe in about 1900. The center stone of smooth, cabochon cut sapphire in a rich shade of cobalt blue has a stunning moonlight on water feel. It measures 8.6x6.7xx3.7 mm and weighs approximately 2.3 carats. The size 6.25 ring measures 10.7 mm north to south at the widest point and narrows to 4.2 mm at the back of the band, it weighs 7.9 grams.

Antique Agate Garnet Squirrel Mushroom Brooch Pin 14k Gold
$ 1,780.00
The Secessionist were a group of German, Austrian and Belgian artists who broke away from very the very historical and academic artistic styles of their time to form a new, modern art movement. Starting in Munich in the early 1890s, the Secessionist formed their societies and created a journal of art and literature called the ‘Jugend’; from which the term of the movement was coined. The art called itself ‘Jugenstil’ which translates as ‘Youth Style’ and whose style was influenced by the French and Belgian Art Nouveau movements and Japanese woodblock prints. While Jugenstil art started primarily as print art, it quickly found its way into Architecture, design and, of course, jewelry.
This wonderful Jungenstil brooch is set with a slice of fantastic rust, red, orange and white agate and topped with a crown of five sparkling faceted round garnets. One either side of the agate are a fully formed squirrel holding a nut and a couple of dancing forrest mushrooms. This pin was hand crafted in about 1900-1910 of 14 karat gold and is marked with ‘585’ to represent the gold content. This brooch measures 29.5 mm north to south and 59 mm across and weighs 9.1 grams. It would make a fantastic pendant if converted.
Being a fan of Art Nouveau jewelry, it’s no surprise that my eye is drawn to these fantastic Jungenstil peices as well, this one I found so charming that I just couldn’t let it get away.

Antique Amethyst Paste Gold Cluster Ring Victorian
$ 1,280.00
Your ring goes with springtime, it looks perfect in a wonderland of violets and dark purple tulips with robins in the sky. It goes with the smell of fresh rain and mint as you stroll the sidewalks of a small town, going in and out of antique stores. It goes with humming in the breeze, enjoying the tree buds and looking forward to the evening, when the stars will come out and the grass will dew and your love will be home.
This antique cluster ring was hand crafted in England in 9 karat gold in about 1850. The center stone is a cushiony oval of light purple amethyst in a gold pinched bezel surrounded by a halo of black dot, closed backed, pastes set in silver. I think that the top of this ring started life as a brooch or button and has been transformed at some point into this stunning ring. I purchased it this way and the shank is worn enough to show that this wasn’t done any time recently. The ring measures 19.7 mm north to south and 18.5 mm across, it sits 7.2 mm off the finger and narrows to 1.9 mm at the back of the band.

Antique Art Deco Ruby Platinum Eternity Band Wedding Ring
Sold Out - $ 1,750.00
Sometimes I forget that no small part of what I deal in are the gems that make up the jewels that I sell. I get caught up in the artistry of the jeweler, in the age or the sentimentality and I forget about the gems, the pure, rich, made by the earth, gems that are so often the stars of these jewelry shows. Diamonds might be a girls best friend, but rubies are a corundum kissed by fire, a stone with so much inner beauty you can almost feel the heat.
Hand crafted in the Art Deco era, this fantastic antique ring is made in platinum and channel set with an unending loop of square cut rubies. There are 28 rubies in all, each about .080 carats, about 2 carats in total weight.

Antique Art Nouveau Diamond Gold Slide Locket 18k French
$ 2,650.00
They had been married for two days when they set off for Paris. They arrived a week later, it was spring time in Paris, the most beautiful time of the year. They were there on their honeymoon and they would attend the Grande Opening of the Exposition Universelle of 1900, the World’s Fair. They would see the stunningly elaborate Porte Monumental on the Place de la Concorde, ride the Grande Roue, the tallest ferris wheel in the world. They would wander the Champs-Élysées and the fabulously impressive and newly finished Grand Palais. The Palace of Electricity and the Water Castle were her favorites. On their last day he bought her a locket to remember the fair by. It was in the new Art Nouveau style that had been featured so prominently throughout the fair and in the streets, buildings and art of Paris. She loved it, and him, and decades later when she bounced their grandchildren on her knee she told them the story of the locket and of those magical day in Paris when the world was shiny and new.
Hand crafted in about 1900, this stunning slide locket features a woman in profile. She wears a tiara and a collar of rose cut diamonds and is done in elaborate detail. Inside the locket are two frames, one contains on old mirror that’s missing a bit of its silver backing, it could be removed upon request. The locket is 41.2 mm from top to bottom and 28.5 mm across, it’s 6 mm thick. This locket is marked ‘750’ indicating it’s content of 18 karat gold. I suspect that it is French in origin, although it bears no marks. This locket weighs 15.5 grams.

Oh, how I love and hate to shop at Grays Antique Centre in London! They have the most amazing things in Grays, the créme de la créme of London's antiques all under one roof. Someone might as well follow me around with a drool rag when I'm in Gray's, I want it ALL. However, I can barely afford any of it; heck, at their prices, I could sell to them!

It's true I have a weak spot for all things Nouveau, but come on, how could I possibly resist this stunning beauty, the flowers so open and sparkly, you can practically smell their sweetness.

The ring is hand crafted in 14 karat gold and is marked with '585' for the content and the makers mark "BENDER" (I couldn't figure out who this was).

The two smaller mine cut diamonds weight about .1 carats each for a total diamond weight of approximately .7 carats. The ring weighs 5.6 grams.

Some pieces I buy on a pure, girly, bubble gum, princess fantasy level. Because, let’s face it, sometimes a girl just needs something sparkly and fabulous to get her through the day.

A hidden gem, a needle in a haystack, that four-leaf clover in a field of daisies. It looked like a blanket of snow over a mountain, each snowflake with its own colorful fire burning, lighting up beneath the sun.

Antique Art Nouveau Pearl Wedding Necklace 15k Gold English
$ 1,850.00
It started to rain just ten minutes before the outdoor ceremony was supposed to start. She knew it had been a risk, but she really wanted to get married here, on this beach where they had first met, with her toes in the sand. So they waited, ten minutes, then twenty, then at twenty five the rain stopped, the skies began to clear. They passed out towels to the guests to dry their seats (at least she’d been prepared for this possibility). She linked arms with her Dad and he walked her down the sandy isle. A rainbow split the sky as she walked and she heard the little intake of breath from the gathered crowd. Perfect, she though, she’d known it would be perfect.

Antique Art Nouveau Sapphire and Diamond Ring, 18k Gold and Platinum c. 1900
$ 1,680.00
The morning was a bright one. Spring time in Paris, sunny and brisk. The air smelled sweet from all the trees and flowers in bloom, tinged with the smells of fresh coffee and sweet things baking in the shops along the street. I stopped into a cafe to pick up a cafe creme and a pain au chocolat, it was warm inside and slightly steamy. Then off to do a little shopping. Is there really any better combination than coffee, chocolate, and diamonds? Not that I know of! (Well, okay, diamonds go pretty well with champagne, too, but it was just a wee bit too early in the morning for that!).
This wonderfully sweet sapphire and diamond ring has a very definite Art Nouveau feel to it. Set in the center is a bright blue .6 carat round faceted natural sapphire, providing star support on either side of the sapphire are two lovely and lively old European cut diamonds, each of which weigh about .3 carats. The sides of this ring are accented with another 14 rose cut diamonds, all of the diamonds are set in platinum, the rest of the ring tests as 18 karat gold. This ring bears no marks, but I did purchase it in France and suspect that it is French in origin and lost its mark to resizing somewhere along the way, it dates to about 1900-1910. We've carefully acid tested it to verify the metal content. Overall, the ring measures 16.5 mm north to south, 12 mm across and sits 5 mm off the finger. It is currently a size 7.5 but could be resized a bit in either direction, it weighs 4.1 grams.
This gorgeous and sparkling ring would make an elegant and unusual engagement ring. It would go great with everything; jeans, cocktail dresses, even chocolate croissants!

Antique Art Nouveau Sapphire Diamond Twist Ring 18k Gold
$ 1,200.00
Sapphires have been attributed to royalty since the beginning of written history. The color and rarity of the stone signified power and wealth. The idea that they came from the East, was intriguing, as it was a place branded as a treasure chest of gems and riches, most likely because of the traders selling to the West. During the Middle Ages, sapphires were thought to be the divine stone, and shield the wearer from harm and disease. The Edwardian era marked a time of luxury and indulgence. Sapphire rings with diamond accents, like this ring, were considered en vogue.
This antique Victorian sapphire and diamond gold ring was handcrafted in Birmingham, England around 1900. A sapphire stone sits at the center of six diamonds that twist around the face, all set in 18 karat gold. The beautiful blue sapphire measures 3.5 mm in diameter and 2.8 mm in depth, and weighs approximately .25 carats. Each of the diamonds are round and Old European cut, totaling an approximately weight of .20 carats. The ring face measures 7.4 x13.5 x 3.8 mm off the finger and the band width is 1.4 mm at the back. It has been fully hallmarked and bears the crown mark for England, the gold purity mark, “18”, and the anchor for Birmingham. This ring is a size 7.75 and weighs 2.6 grams.
Give her an engagement ring that she’ll gaze at for hours and show off for years. This sapphire and diamond beauty should do the trick.

Antique Arts & Crafts Necklace by William Hair Haseler for Liberty & Co
$ 1,800.00
William Hair Haseler was a renowned silversmith during the turn of the (last) century. Born in Birmingham, England in 1821, he founded his company in 1870. It specialized in gold and silver work. At around the same time, the famous department store of Liberty and Company opened and quickly became a must-shop hub of world goods that promoted the Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts styles. In 1898, Haseler and Liberty created a formal partnership and launched the Cymric line using freelance designers. They’re partnership was a natural fit as both companies held an affinity for the natural grace of leaves, flowers, and ornamental lines which graced the two concurrent movements. After Haseler’s death, the partnership continued until 1926.
This rare and fabulous Arts & Crafts silver enamel necklace was handcrafted around 1900 by William Hair Haseler, whose pieces were retailed by Liberty and Company. It features a drop pendant with a blue and green foliate motif that measures 32.5 x 27 mm. The chain measures 15 inches in length. This antique necklace weighs 7.2 grams.

The school is found at the heart of the city’s Jewellery Quarter, now an urban center with a creative atmosphere. The jewelry trade was once considered the most lucrative career in Birmingham. Apprentices were required to attend the Birmingham School of Art, in which, the branch of Jewellery and Silversmithing was found. The Jewellery Quarter once produced 40% of the UK’s jewelry. It is where many technological advancements in the world of jewelry making were born.

$ 1,250.00
Lost in history, bound in myth. That’s what I always think when come across very old things like this fantastic carved bloodstone intaglio seal. It makes me a little bit melancholy to think of what stories they could tell that I will never know! Then again, you might have noticed that I’m never adverse to making up their stories for myself!

Antique Carved Sardonyx Opening Ring Locket Poison
$ 1,200.00
Poison was the killer of choice amongst the ancient Romans and Greeks, it has been used for millennia, really, although some think it peeked in Medieval Europe. I guess back in the day you really had to be careful about where your food and beverages came from. You might never know who was out to get you!
A ring like this one is often called a ‘poison’ ring, because you could easily and unobtrusively open the secret compartment in the lid and dump a bit of poison into the drink of your unwitting victim!’

Antique Celluloid Pill Box Set with Essex Crystal Spider
$ 1,250.00
The art form of crystal based reverse intaglio, or Essex Crystal work, began in Europe, possibly in Belgium. The difference between reverse carving and intaglio is that an intaglio piece is carved into the front rather than the back of the surface. It is said that Thomas Cook first introduced this tedious process to England during the 1860s. His finished crystals were initially sold by Hancock’s in London. So why weren’t they called “Cook crystals” or “Hancock crystals”? Well, it so happened that a very popular artist named William Essex, who specialized in enamel miniatures, was assumed to have produced them because of the fineness of the workmanship. Essex was one of Queen Victoria’s favorite portrait artists and so it was probably just assumed that such beautiful work must be his, and the mistaken attribution stuck!
This antique Victorian celluloid pill box is set in the top with the most exquisitely carved and painted spider. I’m not usually a buyer of things non-jewelry, but I simply couldn’t resist this fantastic crystal with it’s detailed creeping spider. The crystal is set into a 9 karat gold frame and measures 14.2 mm across, while the box itself is 42.7 mm across and 19.6 mm deep, it has a silver band around the outside. The materials have been acid tested to verify content and the box weighs in at 17.3 grams.
Most Essex crystal designs fall into one of four categories: animals, birds, flowers, and nautical themes. Within the animal genre the most popular subjects were horses, dogs, and foxes, but this is the first time I’ve ever had the delight of stumbling upon a spider!

Antique Diamond Engagement Ring, Dutch c. 1875 in 14k Gold
$ 2,390.00
In my humble opinion, some of the best museums in Europe are located along the gorgeous old brick and cobblestone streets of Amsterdam, along with lovely canals and markets of tulips and amazing architecture, and wonderful food and friendly folk, and…. well, I could go on. If I’m not buying jewels you might find me in one of these lovely museums on my, sadly too infrequent, visits to this loveliest of cities.
On my last visit in early autumn, when I wasn’t touring the Reijksmuseum or lunching at the Cobra Café, I was buying jewels. Here’s one of them, a fantastically sparkly and completely perfect diamond engagement ring.
Set in 14 karat gold, this handcrafted ring boast a lovely and deep sparkling .6 carat Old European cushion cut diamond winking away in a classical prong mount. The diamond is very clean even with a 10x jewelers loupe and about a I/J color (it’s hard to judge as it’s mounted in gold, so I’m erring on the side of caution in my estimate). The sides are set with 5 sparkling rose cut diamonds on each shoulder for a total of 11 diamonds in the ring. The main diamond measures 4.8 mm north to south and 4.4 mm across, it is 3.5 mm deep. This ring is a size 7.75 and could be resized safely by about one size in either direction and no more. It weighs 1.8 grams, and is marked ’14’ for 14 karat gold. Probably Dutch in origin, this perfectly wonderful ring dates to about 1870-1880.
As well as being cultured and truly lovely, Amsterdam is a very romantic city; standing on the Magerebrug bridge over the Amstel river at sunset would make a nice place to ask for her hand (just don’t drop the ring!). Or do what I did, and honeymoon here. I highly recommend getting a top floor room at one of the 17th century bed and breakfasts that are tucked away along the tree lined canals. Climb the stairs to room under the sweeping iconic eves of an Amsterdam room and step back into the feel of an authentic slice of Old Europe.

Antique Diamond Pearl Gold Bangle Bracelet with Lily of the Valley Flowers
$ 4,800.00
She dashed through clover fields, chasing after her dog, giggling and smiling because it was a bright Spring morning and the sun finally felt warm again after a long winter. She stopped when she came across a hillside laden with Lily of the Valley and plopped down, breathing deep, reveling in the heady scent. She crafted a woven crown of lilies for her head, and a collar for her dog. It was her favorite flower, it matched her bracelet, and how both reacted so perfectly with the sunlight beaming through the cumulous clouds.
This darling antique gold bangle features a lily of the valley flower made of diamonds and pearls. It was handcrafted in about 1870 and has a safety chain for added security. The sparkling lily featured on this bangle is made up of 20 rose cut diamonds and four natural creamy white pearls, all set in silver. This piece is hallmarked with an owl and a swan, indicating it was imported to France, most likely from England, and holds a minimum silver fineness of 800 silver (in the setting). The gold purity content mark, ‘75’, can also be found on this beautiful bracelet, and in addition we’ve acid tested it to verify that it is 18 karat gold.

Antique Diamond Platinum Engagement Ring Bypass Style
$ 1,200.00
I’ve often wondered if jewels can flirt. The way they dance, shimmer, and shimmy, I find it’s a rather plausible hypothesis. Diamonds like these seduce the worthy and tease the unprepared. They’re inviting, but with a hint of scandal and plenty of allure. It’s easy to see why Daisy couldn’t get enough and why Gatsby followed suit.
This sparkling five-stone diamond bypass ring was handcrafted in platinum. It was made around 1915-20 in England. Each of the diamonds are old European cuts with the largest at the center of a swirling ring face design. The center diamond measures 3.7 x 3.7 x 2.3 mm and weighs approximately .20 carats. The two diamonds next to the center measure 2.3 x 2.3 x 1.7 mm each and weigh approximately .06 carats each. The smallest two stones each weigh approximately .01 carats each, adding even more glimmer to this vintage stunner. This ring bears the platinum mark, “PLAT” and a maker’s mark, “WG&S”. The ring face measures 7.4 x 9.5 x 5.5 mm off the finger and the band width is 1.7 mm at the back. It’s a size 7.5 US and weighs 3.6 grams.
Let your finger beguile the world with this Jazz Era beauty. It’s Art Deco at its finest and your finger deserves it.

Antique Diamond Set Enameled Orchid Pendant
$ 2,900.00
To the Victorians, the orchid represented rare and delicate beauty. They were seen as exotic, from the East, rare and in need of special care in a hothouse. Orchids are symmetrical and so they became associated with perfection. Dried and ground orchid tubers were used in love potions as the plant was considered an aphrodisiac.
This pretty enameled gold orchid pendant was handcrafted around 1900 in Europe. It’s a yellow and pink flower set in 18 karat gold. An Old European cut diamond, measuring 3 mm in diameter, sits at the very center of the orchid, with two smaller diamonds, measuring 1.35 mm in diameter, next to it. This pendant becomes a brooch when the hook and pin are screwed into the back. It’s a versatile piece ready for day to night. Overall, this pendant measures 30.6 x 33 x 14.8 mm and weighs 10.3 grams. It is unmarked and has been acid tested.
Confucius admired orchids and was quoted to have said, “The orchid grows where others cannot, enduring the hardships of hunger and thirst, and is loosely tied to the things that support it. And, even with all the difficulty of its life, the orchid graces the world with beautiful color and rare fragrance. This is like the life of the true gentleman, who sets himself to learn self-discipline, and whose character shines no matter where he is or what he experiences.”

Antique Edwardian 3 Stone Opal and Diamond Ring in 18k Gold
$ 3,490.00
I’m always on the lookout for marvelous opal rings, and I often come across 3 and 5 stone varieties in the very typical English Victorian fashion, but I have to admit that when I saw this particular ring my jaw just about hit the floor. Once I had lifted said jaw and tucked it back neatly into place, I had no choice but to slip this large and luscious beauty onto my finger and bring it home with me. This is, without a doubt, the biggest, boldest and most fabulous example of a 3 stone ring I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Far, oh so very far, from typical.
Hand crafted in 18 karat gold around the turn of the (last) century, this circa 1900 ring is graced with three voluptuous opals with fantastic play of color in flashes of blue, green, orange, red and yellow. The center stone is an approximately 1.7 carat round cabochon gem and the two side opals are cabochon egg shapes that add up to another 1.2 carats in bright opal gems. Interspersed between the opals are 5-7 point old European cut diamonds for added sparkle and flash, these add up to about .35 carats total weight. This ring is a size 9 and while it could be re-sized a little bit, it’s scale dictates that it be worn on a finger of about this size. The ring measures 9.8 mm from north to south and 26.3 mm from east to west and sits 6.4 mm off the finger, it narrows to 1.7 mm at the back of the band. This ring has no marks but has been acid tested to verify it’s content at 18 karat gold.
This stunning ring was no doubt worn by important lady of the day, I have yet to meet its equal.
