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. Dropping off the kids, picking up the kids, doing load after load of laundry, feeding the dog (because does anyone else remember to feed the dog?); these things are all made a little bit easier when a girl’s got a good manicure and a ring like this on her finger. It’s equally excellent for romantic dates with the hubs, cocktails on Thirsty Thursday with the ladies, and if you’re so inclined, this one would be quite at home at the Academy Ball, dancing through the halls of the Bellevue in a frosty ball gown.

She sat at the top of a cliff and caught her breath, her harness still dangling from her waist. The sun was just kissing the horizon and the light had turned a rich and buttery yellow. The sea below was a shocking shade of blue. He came and sat next to her and offered her a bottle of water. When she took it and went to turn the lid, she heard a clink and noticed a glint off the bottle. She tore her eyes from the ocean and looked down at the bottle, hanging around the neck was a ribbon and strung on the ribbon was a magnificent diamond ring. She looked at him and he shrugged and smiled.

“Shall we?” he asked.

“Yes.” she said, and grasped the hand he offered. “Yes, I think we shall.”

Here is a wonderful and cheeky rooster who is beautifully hand crafted. The body of the bird is created from a large, natural, Baroque Pearl. His tail is set with a spray of rubies, diamonds and sapphires; and his head is further set with rubies, sapphires and emeralds. The brooch is fully engraved with fanciful and realistic details down to the toes on its perfect little feet.

This piece is marked on the back of the leg, but I was not able to make these marks out. It was most likely made in France in the 1940s, at a time when these brooches were highly desirable and created by many of the important jewelry houses. Buccellati, Cartier, Yard and Tiffany all crafted brooches in this genre, many with a pearl as the central body of the animal. It's quite possible this brooch was created by one of these important houses. It's beautifully crafted, note how the back is left open to reveal the back of this magnificent, 60 carat natural pearl.

The body of this piece tests as 18 karat gold and the diamonds are set in platinum. The pin stem has a trombone style clasp. The brooch measures 55 x 53x 17 mm and weighs 21.56 grams.

This piece has been expertly appraised by an independent appraiser and has a value of $15,000. Please inquire for a full copy of the detailed appraisal.

Item ID: RGA23233VA

King Henry V is pretty well known for winning the battle of Agincourt. “Once more unto the breach, Dear Friends”, ring a bell? Well, on one of my many trips to visit my friends the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London, I engaged a beefeater guard in lively discourse. He told me that the Black Prince’s Ruby was really a Spinel (which, of course, I already knew).

“Oh, really,”, I replied, trying to coax more information from him.

“And do you know why it’s set with a ruby?”, now he had me, that I did not know.

The guard proceeded to tell me a story I’d never heard, about how that same King, Henry V, had the spinel drilled through the center so that he could wear it like a bead on a cord, for luck during the fighting in France. He told me of how the stone was lost during the great battle and of how the King sent his entire army back to the battlefield to look for it. It took 3 weeks for them to find it, under a dead French soldier.

This spinel likely never spent 3 weeks under a dead Frenchman, but it has that same rich, dark, look and luster of the famous stone in the Crown Jewels. It is surrounded by a halo of fabulously bright old European cut diamonds which set the spinel to singing with a fiery glow. The rectangular, cushion cut spinel is a natural stone which measures 8.92 x 7.14 x 5.51 mm and weighs approximately 2.78 carats. It is surrounded by a ring of 12 old Mine cut diamonds which are 0.073-0.092 carats each and weigh about .98 carats in total and the shoulders are each set with a single cut diamond of .03 carats.

This ring was hand crafted in about 1880, most likely in Russia. It has hallmarks to the back of the band which are too worn to totally make out, but under a microscope I find them to be closest to Russian marks. Also, the ring tests as 14 karat gold, which is consistent with Russian jewelry at the time. The face of this ring measures 13.9 mm north to south and 6.6 mm wide and it sits 6 mm off the finger. This ring is a size 7.75 and weighs 3.4 grams, it could be resized to suit.

This ring has been appraised and graded by a GIA Graduate Gemologist who specializes in Antique and Estate jewelry, it has a replacement value of $13,500 USD. Please inquire if you’d like a full copy of the appraisal for review.

They called it 'La Belle Époque', translated as ‘the Beautiful Era’, and it's as well they should have. From about 1871 to the beginning of World War I in 1914, peace and prosperity flourished throughout Europe and especially settled in France and England. The arts flourished, money flew, it was truly a golden age. This ring was made then, there, in that Paris of the early 20th century, amidst that optimism, that joie de vivre!

Completely hand crafted by a master of the art, this ring is a modified target type ring, set with row upon alternating row of glittering white diamonds and rich blue sapphires. The 17 diamonds add up to about 1.2 carats in total and the two rings of calibre cut sapphire are about .7 carats total. The ring is 18 karat gold in the back and the top stones are all set in platinum, this kind of 18 karat and platinum construction is very typical of the Belle Époque (which corresponds to the English Edwardian Era), as jewelers didn't really start using all platinum construction until the 1920's (with some exceptions). This ring has a fairly worn hallmark, but it is the eagles head assay mark which tells us that it is French and contains 18k gold. The ring is currently a size 7 and measures 20 mm north to south and 14.5 mm across, it sits 5 mm off the finger and narrows to 1.3 mm at the back of the band. Made in Paris, France around 1910.

This beautiful ring from the beautiful era would make a precious gift for any occasion or a stunning right hand ring that could be worn from blue-jeans to ball gowns!

Caution: Old Cut diamonds are addictive. Each one is a little bit different from the other, each stone was mapped out in the mind of a master in stone cutting, each one was cut and polished carefully by hand. These stones each have their own character and it gives a ring like this one the overall appearance of a work of art, with the slow, lazy strong flashes of color and light that only old cuts can offer. Even those who don’t know the difference will be able to see right away that these are no ordinary stones, this no ordinary ring.

This vintage ring was hand crafted in 18 karat white gold around 1920. It is set with 18 old European cut diamonds and two brilliant cut diamonds which were added later when the ring was re-sized. Each diamond weighs approximately .2 carats and the total carat weight of this ring is about 3.5 carats. The ring measures 3.9 mm north to south and sits 3 mm off the finger. This ring is a size 9.25 but as it’s been resized up it could probably be resized down. This ring is marked with an owl, the French import mark for a gold fineness of 18 karat minimum, it weighs 4.6 grams.

This gorgeous ring would make an excellent wedding band, or addition to a ring stack. It’s got big, juicy diamonds and a lot of presence.

I arrived early in the morning at my friends shop in East London. He unlocked the door for me and I handed him a white tea with four sugars, he grinned. We spent the next several hours shooting the breeze and enjoying each others company as we delved into his cases and looked at fantastic jewels. I was just about to walk out the door, coat on, money exchanged, hugs given, when I spotted this ring in the corner of a case by the front door. Well, I just had to turn around and declare that our visit wasn’t yet done. This ring, this ring I simply had to have.

This swirling gold Art Nouveau beauty has a most amazing weight and feel on the hand; it is set with 3 sparkling Old European cut diamonds. The three stones weigh approximately .35 carats each for a total diamond weight of 1.05 carats. The ring itself measures 9 mm north to south and 18 mm across, the diamonds are flush mounted and it sits just 4.3 mm off the hand. Marked ‘14k’ inside the band for 14 karat gold, this ring is a size 7.75 and weighs 6.1 grams. Made in Europe around 1900.

For an engagement or an anniversary, for a birthday or even just because, this ring is practically perfect in every way.

The Metropolitan Opera house opened with a performance of 'Faust' on October 22, 1883; on Broadway in New York City. The opera house had been formed and built by the likes of the Vanderbilts, the Roosevelts and the Astors as a response to being shut out of the Academy of Music due to their new-money status. On opening night, and every night for years to come, the private boxes at the Met became known as ‘The Diamond Horseshoe’ as the radiance of the stunning diamond jewels of the patrons lit up under the gaslights and the massive chandelier. This diamond starburst brooch would have felt completely at home. Likely it would have been worn as only one of a collection of starburst brooches pinned to a fur or dress. A singular part of the Diamond Horseshoe.

This starburst is one of my personal favorites, it has a touch of a snowflake look to the design. The brooch is handcrafted in 18 karat gold with the diamonds set in silver. The center stone is an Old European Cushion cut diamond that weighs just over a half carat, and the total weight in diamonds, including the additional 56 Old European cut stones, is about 3.25 carats. This fantastic piece is exceptionally sparkly and lively, the diamonds flashing with your every move. The pin stem is a later replacement and is fixed, but the brooch has an enhancer fitting on the back so this piece would be easy to wear as a pendant. It has no hallmarks that I can see, I purchased it in England, and it was likely made there, around 1880-1890. It measures 34 mm north to south and across and weighs 12.9 grams. The star has been appraised by a GIA Master Gemologist and I’m happy to provide a full copy of the appraisal upon request, the insurance replacement value is $12,500 USD.

This stunning and versatile brooch or pendant is ready for it's re-introduction to the world. Maybe you'll take it to the Met? It promises to shine just as brightly under LED light as it did under the gaslights back in the day.

“Ashford Castle, this is Ella, how may I assist you today” said the female voice in a pleasant, but not obvious, Irish brogue.

“Hello Ella,” you replied, “I’d like to book the 83rd Room.”

She heard, rather than saw, Ella’s eyes widen a bit. “Yes, Mam,” she replied, “I’ll put you through to the Hotel Manager.”

She’d been dreaming of this day ever since she’d discovered the 83rd Room existed. Ashford Castle, an estate going back 800 years, contained 82 gorgeous hotel rooms, but the 83rd room wasn’t in the castle. Rather, it consisted of an old Stone boat house which had been lavishly reappointed as an indulgent hideaway. It came with bicycles to explore the hotels 350 acre estate, with Jack Murphy Jackets and Wellies to take home, with a fully stocked bar and a 24/7 butler, but the reason she really wanted it was that it came with a boat. She wanted to row out into the lake in the deep of night and see the stars reflected in its ancient water; sparkling like diamonds under a moonless sky.

This ring is a bit like those stars, sparkly, rich and deeply mysterious. It is set with an Octagon of bright white old European cut diamonds which weight about 1 carat in total and are F/G color and VS1 clarity, but it’s the center stone on this one that will really take your breath away. At the heart of this ring is an Old European cut Natural Fancy Dark Orange Brown diamond. According to the accompanying GIA report, this stone weighs approximately .63 carats and is not treated in any way, it is a VS1 in clarity. The ring is a hand crafted beauty that dates to the Edwardian era. It is made of 14 karat yellow gold and platinum and is unmarked but has been carefully acid tested. The face of this ring measures 14.3 mm north to south and across, it sits 5.4 mm off of the finger and narrows to 1.5 mm wide at the back of the band. This size 8.5 ring weighs 5.3 grams. Comes with a full appraisal and GIA certificate, the replacement value is $8,650.

A note from Victoria: I’ve worn this ring for awhile, but I’m ready to part with it so I’m listing it for sale. I can tell you from having worn it that it is a stunning beauty, the center stone can go from a light peach color to a rich dark brown depending on the light and it gets flashes of color from deep red to light pink. I think I might miss it, but I’ve recently acquired one that I like just a bit better and I’m not really wearing this one the way it deserves to be worn. It would make an utterly stunning engagement ring, but it doesn’t really need an excuse. It get’s a lot of lovely compliments!
