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. The ring is just a hair bigger than a size 7.25, it measures 3.5 mm from north to south and sits 2.5 mm off the finger and weighs 3.9 grams.
As a wedding band, a stacking band, a gift of love from a lover or from yourself, this ring will never go wrong.

I do love Owls. They have long been associated with wisdom and prosperity and have even been considered to be good luck and bringers of wealth. So, it's no wonder that I was taken in by this stunning brooch.

This one has a roll over catch for added security and is marked ‘830’.

Victorian Intaglio Bloodstone Signet Ring 18k Gold
$ 2,180.00
The Lion Rampant dates back to the 1200s as the symbol for Scotland and graces its flag to this day. It was adopted in 1603 (although not used officially until 1704) as part of the coat of arms for Great Britain and is used several times in the motif, including a lion rampant wearing a crown who holds the royal shield. When wandering the palaces of Scotland and England, you will encounter this crowned lion again and again in art and sculpture and architecture.
This antique Victorian intaglio ring was handcrafted in 18 karat gold in about 1860. The oval shaped bloodstone presents a seal that pictures a lion rampant in a shield below a coronet. The shoulders have scalloped engraving that have been worn silky soft over it's 160 or so years. The bloodstone measures 19.5 x 11.5 mm while the face of this ring measures 18.5 mm north to south and 17.4 mm across, it sits 3.7 mm off the finger and narrows to 4.2 mm at the back of the band. The ring is unmarked and has been professionally acid tested to verify it’s 18k content. It’s a size 8.25 and weighs 9.1 grams.

Reserved for Jane ~ Victorian 3 Moonstone Gold Ring 3.3cttw
Sold Out - $ 1,647.00
Over on Instagram they like to have #MoonstoneMondays, but I think that a fabulous Moonstone ring like this one deserves to be worn every day of the week.
Three glowing blue moonstones are the lively stars of this ethereal show. This ring was hand crafted around 1890 of 18 karat gold. It was made in London, England and while it’s marked for the karat weight and the city of assay, it’s missing its year mark, likely due to resizing at some point in its life. The moonstones are cabochon cuts and the center stone measures 9x7.1x3.3 mm and weighs approximately 1.53 carats, the two side stones are about .92 and .87 in weight giving this ring a total weight in moonstone of 3.32 carats. The ring measures 9.8 mm north to south and 17.3 mm across, it sits 5.5 mm off the finger and narrows to 2.4 mm at the back of the band. This size 6 ring weighs 4.4 grams.

Reserved ~ Martin Mayer Jungendstil Silver Slide Locket Poppies
Sold Out - $ 950.00 $ 1,160.00
On their first date he took her to Longwood Gardens in the gorgeous Brandywine Valley. It was winter and she wondered at his idea to go to a garden in the cold; but when she walked into the immense Victorian Conservatory she was awestruck by the beauty of the building and the slice of summertime held within. She loved all the flowers and trees, the cacti and orchids but she became completely enamored of the blue poppies that grew along the edges of the walkways under the grand glass roof.
This fantastic silver slide locket by the famed Martin Mayer features a wonderful design of poppy flowers which flows around onto both sides of the locket. The poppies are so realistic, they seem to jump off the locket. Set with two mirrors, this Jungendstil locket was hand crafted around 1900-1910 in Germany, it is marked on the bale. The locket is 61 mm from top to bottom and 36 mm across and weighs 15.5 grams. It is marked for 800 silver.

Edwardian 5 Stone Amethyst Ring 9k Gold
Sold Out - $ 680.00
One of the hidden truths about this profession that I am in is how kind and generous the people who buy and sell antique jewelry tend to be. I don't know why this is, but I am truly thankful for it every day, my customers, suppliers, contacts, they are all the sweetest people and many have become like family to me over the years. The reason that I mention this in this listing of this particular ring is that I purchased this ring while standing at the booth of a friend/supplier on Portobello Road. A man came up to her and had some items that he was looking to sell and my sweet friend gave me first dibs on everything that he had (in exchange I held her baby while she sold some cufflinks to her Japanese clients, using a calculator to overcome the language barrier, seems like I made out on both fronts!).
This gorgeous 5 stone amethyst ring is a rarity, I don’t often find this style of ring set with Amethysts and this one is a lovely, sparkling example. Five oval faceted amethyst make up the face of this ring, they graduated in size from 7.1x5.2 down to 3.4 x 3, they are closed backed so I can’t get a true depth or estimated carat weight for them. This ring is a little bit of an anomaly in that it has a full set of hallmarks for having been made in Birmingham, England of 9 carat gold, the date mark is worn, it might be an a for 1900 or a d for 1903, but both of these seem too late of a date for this ring, so it’s possible that I’m reading the mark wrong or that it was re-shanked and re-hallmarked. The ring measures 8 mm north to south and 18.4 mm across, it sits 3.8 mm off the finger and narrows to 1.8 mm and it weighs 1.4 grams. This ring is a size 8.25 and would be difficult to resize by more than a size or two.

Edwardian Peridot Pearl and Amethyst Gold Pendant Suffragette Colors
Sold Out - $ 1,050.00
Anyone who knows just a little bit about Suffragette jewelry will tell you that there is a lot of debate as to wether or not it even existed outside of a few rare examples. I'm not here to argue the point, if you'd like I'd be happy to send you many links supporting both sides. The truth of it, as far as I can tell, is that 'The Women's Social and Political Union' in England was a group of courageous and strong women who stood up as one and demanded to be counted. The colors of the flags they waved and the buttons they wore were purple to symbolize the instinctual need in all of us for freedom and dignity, white to symbolize purity, and green, symbolic of hope and the color of Spring and new life.
Of course any large social and political movement has an inevitable effect on fashion and so these colors did become quite fashionable at the time and many an Edwardian lady could be found decked out in the somewhat odd combination of green, white and purple. It follows, then, that Edwardian jewelry began to be made in these colors as well. Whether this lovely pendant was made to symbolize the Suffrage Movement or simply made in the colors of the time we will never know, is it the chicken or the egg? Was it subversive? Probably not. More likely it had to do with an outward expression of camaraderie, of hope and the longing for a brighter future, something many of us can relate to today.
This fantastic Edwardian pendant has great Art Nouveau lines and styling; it was hand crafted in 9 karat gold in England in about 1900-1910. This beautiful piece is set with a bright and glowing oval faceted peridot at it’s center, the stone measures 6.7x5.2x3.1 mm and weighs about .75 carats. Surrounding the peridot are 30 creamy white pearls which vary in size from 1.3 to 2.3 mm and a teardrop of Amethyst hangs from the bottom, about .4 carats of rich, violet beauty. This pendant measures 44.4 mm from north to south and 28.6 mm across, it is marked with ‘9’ for 9 karat gold and it weighs 3.2 grams.

French Moonstone Brown Pearl Cluster Ring
$ 1,000.00
This ring was a bit of a mystery, but I think I’ve got it solved! It’s a beauty, set in the center with a 1 carat bright moonstone with great adularescence and a lovely blue hue; around the cabochon center stone are set with 8 pearls in shades of brown and gray, they are 2.7 mm in diameter. The top of this ring is made in 18 karat gold and the split shank is in 14 karat gold. I believe that this ring started life off as something else, most likely a stick pin or part of a brooch, made in about 1880, but it has been more recently made over as a ring. The ring is lovely and well made, it measures 11 mm north to south and 11 mm across, it sits 8 mm off the finger and narrows to 3 mm at the back of the band. This ring is a size 5.5 and weighs 5 grams. It’s marked with the French export mark of the shell and has been carefully acid tested.

Opal Diamond Gold Ring 3 Stone
$ 850.00
I was wandering New Bond Street, with an Everbean coffee in hand, and frosted gluten free coffee cake in the other. I was enjoying the early morning briskness as I waltzed in to one of my favorite hidden gems of an antique store. After trying on too many tweed jackets from the 70’s, and shopping the shoe section for far too long (the brown leather go-go boots were to die for), the owner pulled out a silk drawstring bag. Between your basic gold bands, a silver bauble or two, and a few loose garnets, was this stunner. I slipped it on and wore it for the next week. I had to test it out before selling it to you, I am a professional, after all.

Each of the opals are cabochon cut, with the center stone measuring 5.3 x 4.3 x 1.5 mm. The diamonds are each rose cuts and measure about 1 mm in diameter.

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 French Ivy Leaf Earrings Back-to-Front
$ 980.00
Ivy clings, it grows along walls, over stones, up trees, and inches toward the sky, forming a unity with its sturdy base. Jewelry with an ivy motif was given as a representation of fidelity, friendship and eternity during the 1800s. In Britain, ivy was called, “lovestone”, named for the way it clung to stone walls.
These antique French ivy leaf gold earrings were handcrafted around 1890 in 18 karat gold. Each drop earring features a round creamy white pearl at the top with a long drop link chain that leads to an ivy leaf shaped drop dotted with another round pearl.

Don't be surprised if you get hooked on this style of closure once you get used to it!

Victorian Single Diamond Head Snake Ring

During the Middle Ages, sapphires were thought to be the divine stone, to shield the wearer from harm and disease. The Edwardian era marked a time of luxury and indulgence. Sapphire motifs with pearl accents, like this necklace, were fashionable.
This breathtaking antique Arts and Crafts sapphire and pearl gold necklace was made in England, around 1910. I feel confident in attributing this necklace to The Artificers’ Guild, which was founded in 1901. It was one of the few Arts & Crafts inspired businesses in England to find commercial success. This piece features meandering golden tree branches with 14 white lustrous pearls for leaves; each pearl measures 2.5 mm in diameter. It’s an undulating design with three sapphires that gradate from darkest to lightest as they flow from the top to the bottom, and total a weight of 3.1 carats. The main feature measures 64 x 52 mm. This necklace weighs 12.2 grams and is 22 inches in length, including the drop. It is hallmarked with the gold purity mark, ‘15ct’, signifying it was made in 15 karat gold.
This nature-inspired necklace curves smoothly about and would be a positively perfect gift, even for yourself.

Antique Victorian Ivy Motif Locket in 15k Gold
$ 720.00
They spent the weekend at their parent’s house in the country. By the end of Friday night, they needed a break and went on a quick getaway to the nearest gas station. It was the only place open within 20 miles. They sang to old Willie Nelson songs and commented on the inky blue sky. They’d been sisters for 30 years and best friends the entire time. The eldest held a locket in her hands, with photos of the two of them. The first was from last summer, when they found themselves in bikinis on a pontoon, drinking lemonade, and jumping off the boat. The second was from a family reunion, years and years ago. She had been four-years-old and her sister had just turned three. They were throwing water balloons and cupcakes at each other; they’re mother was laughing, as their father picked her up.
Have you ever seen anything more interesting than an antique Victorian locket with an ivy motif? Me neither! This wonderful slice of Victorian culture was handcrafted circa 1880 in 15 karat gold. Both the front and the back are decorated with repoussed metalwork, which gives the piece floral yet structured details. Open the locket and you’ll find royal purple fabric, waiting for your favorite photographs! This piece measures 37.1 x 19.3 x 11 mm and weighs 8.7 grams. Acid tested to confirm gold content.
Adorn yourself with a memento of your choice inside a golden shell from the Victorian Era!

Georgian Amethyst Rose Cut Diamond Ring
$ 1,850.00
A ring like this one was likely the first jewel that would be worn when a Goeorgian lady was moving out of the first year of mourning, purple was the first color that could be introduced after wearing all black for a year, and along with white and gray, could be added in little splashes, like this fabulous ring.
This hand crafted ring was made in England in about 1830, it is set with one step cut rich purple amethyst which has been out and weighed at 2.36 carats, it measures 91.x7.6x4.9 mm, on each side of the center stone are two rose cut diamonds with fabulous sparkle, 2 are 3 mm and 2 are 3.5 mm each.

Unusual Art Nouveau Victorian Garland Era Silver Bangle Bracelet
$ 880.00
The Aesthetic Movement, which was the driving force behind much of the Victorian silver jewelry that was made in England, began in the 1860s and starting winding down in the last few years of the 1890s. New styles were coming in, Edwardian and Belle Epoque jewelry eschewed chunky Victorian styles moved to a lighter, more ephemeral feel, and the dynamic duo of Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau came sweeping through with something utterly new.
It is exceedingly rare (like this is the first time in 20 years) for me to see a bangle like this one, which shows the clear intersection of the Victorian and Art Nouveau styles. It wasn’t all clean, the changing of style, it was messy at the edges and styles overlapped, sometimes to wonderful effect. This fabulous late Victorian bangle dates to about 1895, it shows the beginnings of the Art Nouveau style, with a nod to the motifs that would sweep though that style and it also has garlands of colored flowers, a very Edwardian motif. The flowers seem to be done with gold and platinum in the overlay, this kind of blue tone to the central flowers is indicative of platinum which was being used in this way a the time, pink gold roses and green gold leafs add to the very three dimensional floral sprays.
This hand crafted bangle is 25 mm wide and would comfortably fit a wrist of up to 6.5 inches. It weighs 27.1 grams, it is unmarked but tests as sterling silver.

Antique Moonstone Demantoid Garnet Ring Silver Arts and Crafts Era
$ 550.00
One year I grew brussels sprouts in my garden. When I planted the little seedlings at the end of one of my raised beds, I have to admit that I had no idea how big these plants would get, as it turns out these plants get huge! I remember how few sprouts we got that were actually edible, but how beautiful the giant blue green leaves of the plant were. They always seemed to have a special glow by moonlight when I would take a midnight stroll down my garden paths. This ring reminds me of that summertime garden glow, the deep green of the garnets, the bright glow of the stone, the scatter of flowers, shining silver in the moonlight.
This wonderful Arts and Crafts era ring was hand crafted around 1900. The silver ring is set with a most beautiful blue glowing moonstone of some 3.07 carats and is accented with 12 green demantoid garnets, each 2x2 mm in size. The face of this ring measures 22 mm north to south and 18 mm across, it is a size 6.25 and weighs 6.1 grams. This ring is unmarked and tests as silver.

Victorian Aesthetic Movement Silver Bangle Bracelet Green Pink Gold Accents
$ 890.00
Art for Arts Sake. This was the driving idea of the Aesthetic Movement in Britain which led artist to create some of the most beautiful artwork of the western world in the years between 1860 and 1900. The idea was that things did not need have a deeper meaning to be made in a way that was pleasing to the senses, that it was okay for an object which was useful to also be beautiful, simply for the sake of beauty. It is an idea which we still hold to this day. The simple lines and motifs of Japanese art were particularly appealing to the Aesthetic artists and these motifs feature prominently in many of the designs of this era, this bangle among them.
Simple branches of cherry blossoms grace the front of this wide silver cuff bangle. The leaves are done in a greenish gold overlay and the blooms in pink gold, it also has a wonderful egg and dart like scalloped edge. This bangle is inscribed to the reverse with “To Mary, 17th Jan(uar)y. 1883.” and the inscription is bordered in a similar manner to the front engraving, making me think that this piece was likely made custom by the jeweler and inscribed by him as well, so probably it was made just before this date in 1882-3. This wonderful bangle measures 25 mm wide from top to bottom and would fit a wrist of 6.5 inches or less; it weighs 37.5 grams. Made in England of Sterling Silver.

$ 2,580.00
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. 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!
This fantastic pendant contains a 9 karat gold split ring which holds three fobs. 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.

Victorian Carnelian Intaglio Ring Lion Rampant
$ 1,750.00
This ring has swagger. Yeah, you heard me, swagger. What’s that, you ask? Well, confidence, perhaps even a bit arrogance; it’s mostly in the hips.
This large and lovely ring is set with a deeply carved intaglio of a lion rampant in a crown done in rich, orange carnelian. I believe that this intaglio predates this wonderful ring by quite a lot, probably the stone dates to about 1870, it’s difficult to say when it was set into this ring, I purchased it this way and it shows definite signs of wear, so it’s been here awhile. This large ring measures 23.8 mm from north to south at the face and is 20.5 mm across, it sits 4.1 mm off the finger and narrows to 2.3 mm at the back of the band. This size 7.5 ring weighs 7.2 grams. This unmarked ring tests as 15 karat gold.

Art Deco Old European Cut Diamond Engagement Ring in Platinum
$ 5,980.00
"Will you?" he said, holding out the little box.
"Yes," she replied, holding out her hand. He slipped it onto her finger.
Perfect.
Old cut diamonds can be dangerous. The more of them you see, the more of them you desire to own. Whereas modern brilliant cut diamonds can be nice and sparkly, old European cuts like this one are more like individual works of art. Hand cut by master craftsmen who spent decades honing their skills; these cutters used no computers, no lasers, they used 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 todays modern cut stones. This European ring was made in about 1930 and showcases the simplicity of the Edwardian style anchored firmly by an Old European cushion cut diamond with large cut facets that cause it to flash with slow and stunning sparks of colorful fire.
Hand crafted of platinum, this fantastic Engagement ring holds a chunky diamond which measures 6.3x6.3x5.2 mm and weighs about .880 carats, it is a very lively stone, about an F/G color Si1 diamond. The face of the ring measures 6.6 mm north to south and it sits 5.2 mm off the finger. The center stone is accented by 3 small diamonds on either side. This ring is marked ‘Plat’ for platinum and has a makers mark of ’SB&Sn’, the ring is inscribed with ’T.B.H-M.M.G 16-2-36’. This size 8 ring weighs 3.7 grams.
This instant heirloom of a ring is just waiting to be part of a story that will last a lifetime, and then some.

Angry Bobby English Policeman Charm Silver Pendant
$ 220.00
Before 1829 there was no police force in London, or really anywhere for that matter. When the then British home minister, Sir Robert Peel, organized the London Metropolitan Police (headquartered on a street named… you guessed it, Scotland Yard) he dressed them in black coats and tall black wool hats with shiny badges. These hats became iconic and the London police force was so closely associated with Robert Peel that those who wore these hats got the nickname of ‘Bobbies’.
I found this particular little Bobby to be utterly irresistible. He looks a bit grumpy, really, under his iconic hat, but this just makes him all the more appealing. The wonderful Victorian charm is done in silver, it’s a small thing, just 21.2 mm from top to bottom including the bale and 16.1 mm across at the widest point. This pendant is unmarked but has been carefully acid tested. It weighs 1.6 grams. Made in England around 1880.

Edwardian Natural Fancy Diamond Cluster Ring Dark Orange Brown Colored
$ 7,500.00
“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!

Victorian 5 Stone Diamond Ring 18k Gold
$ 660.00
It's all in the odd numbers, I guess. Those Victorians just loved their 3, 5 and 7 stone rings. Here is a wonderful example of a five stone ring, which was often referred to as a 'half hoop' ring or sometimes a "boat" ring because of the tapering shape. Crafted from warm 18 karat gold with beautifully hand engraved shoulders, done all in diamonds full of sparkle and fire, it is a glowing example of this type of ring!
Hand crafted in about 1890-1900, this ring was originally fully hallmarked, but while still partially visible, the remaining marks are too worn to read and some have been sized out altogether at some point. It does have a more modern 18 karat gold mark, likely from when the ring was re-sized, but it has been professionally acid tested for metal purity. The stones are all original and beautifully matched. I would confidently estimate the weight of the stones at about .25 carats in total. The ring measures 16.6 mm east to west and 6 mm north to south, sits 3.4 mm off the finger and weighs 3.3 grams. Currently it is a size 6.25 US, but it could be easily be re-sized up or down a bit.
This wonderful and sparkly Victorian diamond 5 stone ring would play nicely in a stack, and would certainly make a lovely wedding ring or anniversary band. When I have it on my finger, I find it simply impossible to take my eyes off of it!
