Antique Victorian Ruffle Earrings in Sterling Silver, Fabulous!
$ 580.00
Bored at a dinner banquette with her family, she snuck away. She found a room with long dark maroon curtains and a baby grand piano. Oil lamps were dimmed and the scent of jasmine tinted the air. She felt exhilarated, breaking a rule. Curiosity took over so she sat and began to play Chopin. As she played her mind drifted and soon she forgot she was in a stranger’s mansion. Loudly she pressed each key, creating a melody so great her head moved to the sound. At first, she didn’t notice the young man stand up from his leather chair in the corner. He sat his book down and made his way to her. She froze when she noticed him, fingers elevating above the keys, her earrings the only thing that moved, lingering with her previous motion. He laughed and said, “Keep going, this is the most fun I’ve had all night.” “Me, too”, she said grinning, and started to play again.
These antique Victorian sterling silver drop earrings were handcrafted in England circa 1890. They’re shiny bulbs surrounded by soft ruffles of silver. They weigh 7.6 grams and measure 41.40 x 21.0 x 11.7 mm. These earrings have been professionally acid tested.
These earrings are for the woman who bends the rules, but doesn’t quite break them.

Fabulous Antique Garnet and Diamond Ring, Edwardian in 18k Gold
$ 1,880.00
Garnets have long been one of my favorite stones. I’m amazed by their beauty and diversity, from the gorgeous and distinctive green of a demantoid (or ‘demented’ as the Brits say), to the fascinating bright orange of a spessartite; they can be bright as rubies, girly almondine pink or, my favorite, a rich, deep burgundy the color of the finest Cabernet. I think my admiration has to do with the way they look in candlelight, impossibly classic and timeless. Possibly it's because their rich colors have long been associated with love and affairs of the heart. They are undeniably romantic, both sensuous and elegant. Add diamonds and you end up with a jewel that is very, very alluring indeed.
This wonderful ring was hand crafted in 1903 in 18 karat gold with beautiful engraved shoulders. It is set with three wonderfully rich deep red round faceted garnets that weigh about 2.7 carats in total. In between the stones are lovely rows of graduated old European cut diamonds, four on each side, these add up to about .2 carats total. The ring measures 7.2 mm north to south and 21.3 mm across and narrows to 2.4 mm at the back of the band. The ring is hallmarked with the marks for having been made in Chester, England in 1903 of 18 karat gold, and has the makers mark ’S.U’. This ring is a size 8.875 and while it could be re-sized somewhat, I’d have to check with my jeweler to see how much, if you’re interested in having it sized, please feel free to inquire. This ring weighs 5.7 grams.
By daylight, moonlight or candlelight, these sparkling garnets are simply not to be missed. Stack a diamond eternity band on either side of this ring for a look that can transition effortlessly from boardroom to ball-gown!

Fabulous Art Deco Jet Double Circle Earrings in Silver, c. 1920
$ 510.00
When Henry Ford first introduced his assembly line created auto mobile, he was famously quoted as saying that one could have the car in "any color you like, as long as it's black."
Many precious things acquire an extra cachet of mystery and worth when they are black. Black coral is highly sought after, a black opal a rarity, and who can deny the sumptuous beauty of a black pearl. In a world of minerals and gemstones that offer a myriad of color there is a notable dearth of black apart from the ubiquitous onyx. Then there is Jet, a mineral that dates to prehistoric use, it has a light and airy weight and feel and is surely an embodiment of classical chic, a simple sophistication that is timeless and classic, rather like Coco Chanel's 'little black dress.'
When I came across these timeless Art Deco black hoop jet earrings, I knew that I had to have them! Fantastically handcrafted, the hoops are faceted and polished for that extra bit of shine and sparkle. Each earring measures 5 cm from top of hook to the bottom. The larger circle is 25.5 mm in diameter. Together they weigh 2.5 grams.
Jet is a somewhat fragile material and a little extra care should be taken to preserve these beauties in the excellent condition that they are in. We'll send them out to you in a lovely velvet-lined box, I would recommend you store them in this box when not in use (which isn't likely to be too often!).

Fabulous French 60" Long Guard Chain in 18k Yellow Gold
$ 6,750.00
Agnes was waiting for me at a café on the edge of Les Puces de Paris, the flea market at St.-Ouen. I've known her for years and we've moved on years ago from the shopper-seller relationship to that of very close friends. She's ordered me a pain au chocolate and a grand créme. The café is close and warm after walking hours around the outdoor market in the crisp autumn air, and the smell of coffee and pastries is intoxicating. Her daughter is with her and I delight in the kind of warm hug and big smile only a 2 year old can offer. Agnes is pregnant with her second and she is glowing only a little bit brighter than the three fabulous gold chains that she has wrapped around her long slender neck. She looks like she should be in a movie, a French beauty with her cherubic daughter, perfectly dressed and accessorized, with that perfect baby bump. I almost felt bad buying all three chains right off of her swan-like neck (but not really, because I know she does it on purpose).
This French chain is a beauty in its own right. Handcrafted with fantastic attention to detail, this one is 60" long and weighs 33.2 grams. Like all French long guards, this chain was meant to be worn with a watch and so while it has a jump ring, it is actually one continuous chain, both ends of which are attached to the ring. This can easily be changed by opening a link and using the jump ring as a closure. You will find it more useful this way if you are going to wear it alone without a pendant or watch. The chain is marked with the French eagle head mark and opposing bigorne, signifying that this chain was made in France of 18 karat gold in about 1890.

Fabulous Retro 26+ Carat Citrine and Diamond Cocktail Ring, 18k and Platinum c. 1950
$ 3,200.00
I love a good cocktail. I'm kind of a Roman when it comes to them, when in New Orleans it's a Sazerac at the Roosevelt Hotel, when in Key West, give me a Mojito at Captain Tony's, from New York City to P-town, Mass, make mine a Cosmo, and when I'm in Paris... Okay, let's face it, in Paris I drink Champagne, but go ahead, throw a raspberry in it and call it a cocktail! I love a good cocktail ring even more, and this one will go with just about any cocktail in just about any city on Earth!
One stunning, huge and richly colored citrine is at the center of this beauty of a ring. The step cut rectangular citrine weighs over 26 carats and has a rich golden caramel color. The stone measures 21mm long, 16.4 mm wide and 11.8 mm deep. The stone is very clean, even with a 10x power jewelers loupe, there are some minor abrasions to the stone. It is set on either side with two small modern cut diamonds in platinum mounts. The ring is handcrafted in 18 karat gold and is unmarked. It is a size 7.5 but could be re-sized up or down. The ring weighs 12.1 grams. I bought this one in Paris. It is unmarked but was likely made in Europe around 1950.
A ring from a time when the word 'cocktail' didn't so much refer to a drink as a way of life.

Fabulous Vintage Designer Bracelet in Heavy 18k Gold Set with Sapphires and Pearls
$ 12,980.00
We had a party to celebrate her new status a citizen of the United States. We hung streamers and banners in red, white and blue and gave her a sash to wear in the same colors. She beamed, her eyes dancing with light, her sweet face graced with pride.
She had the soul of a writer and a more varied and interesting life than most can even imagine. She spoke four languages, fluently. She was born in Russia but lived parts of her life in various parts of the United States, lectured and wrote at Princeton, she lived in the UK, too, visited Switzerland, India and more. She married a famous architect and lived with him for a time. He bought her jewels. This was one of them. She was my friend and I was honored to know her, she was kind and funny and wicked smart.
This fabulously hand crafted bracelet was made in the mid-late 1960’s. It’s so beautifully made that I thought for sure it must be by some famous designer, but it bears no marks and my research turned up only some vague ideas. It is a gloriously heavy length of 80.82 grams of 18 karat gold artfully wrapped around 35 bright blue sapphires of varying sizes which add up to 11.34 carats total weight. It is additionally set with 45 high luster pearls, white with silvery overtones, these being 2.5 and 6 mm each. The bracelet is 6.5 inches long with a delightfully hidden clasp, it measures 21 mm wide and 8 mm deep.
This bracelet comes with a full independent appraisal, the appraised value is $15,000 USD.

Fabulous Vintage Emerald and Ruby Ring in 18k Gold, French
$ 3,100.00
I was dazzled by this glamourous and colorful ring! With its juicy cabochon rubies and rich contrasting emeralds, this is one highly flattering jewel.
Set in 18 karat gold and marked with the French owl mark on the back of the band, I'm not entirely certain what the provenance of this ring is. It's a style that's been copied in more contemporary times, but judging by the wear, marks and craftsmanship of this one I suspect it dates to pre-1950 at least. This is a ring that could use a little bit of love, the shank has a bit of a bend to it that I could ask my jeweler to straighten out upon request. Also, one of the rubies does have a little conical chip out of it, while you can see this in the photos, it's less noticeable on the hand as these photos are very much enlarged to show detail. I forgave it its slight foibles because it's a ring with gorgeous lines, a big show, and a lot to say. Handcrafted in 18 karat gold, I've acid tested it just to be sure, it's a ring that's known a lot of love, and I'm sure it's ready to know some more! It is a size 10.5 and could be resized up or down. A large ring with a big scale, it would look great on a woman or a man, it weighs 9.5 grams.

Fantastic 1950s Diamond & Emerald Cocktail Ring in 18k Gold
$ 10,450.00
The sound of shakers, laughter floating on the air, ice tinkling in glasses. Dresses were tight like the wiggle or fit and flared. Sleeveless, strapless, halter tops. Men wore hats, and they looked darn good in them. With those fancy drinks in her hand and that cocktail dress on, a girl's hands needed to look good, really good. Five o'clock meant stop what you are doing and relax, it seemed only right to also have a fresh manicure and a cocktail ring like this one.

The total diamond weight on this ring is about 2.12 carats. They are lovely, bright white sparkling diamonds that are eye clean. They have an approximate GIA color grade H-I and GIA clarity grade VS range. The ring is hand-crafted in 18 karat gold and the diamonds are set into white gold. The ring is a size 7.5 and could easily be resized to suit. It is marked inside the band with '18ct.' the top of the ring measures 15 mm north to south and 13.7 mm across and it narrows to 1.5 mm wide at the back of the band. This ring weighs 5.1 grams.

Vintage 1960s St. Christopher Pendant with Compass, Heavy 18k Gold
$ 2,980.00
If you were going to travel the world, you wouldn’t want to take along more jewelry than you needed. In fact, this little bauble and a long gold chain would be just about all that’s required (for your lovely neck, that is, of course you’d need some nice diamond earrings and a ring or two as well).
Why this one, you ask? Well, with a little push and twist, this beautiful, heavy, and unassuming globe opens up to reveal on one side, a golden coin featuring St. Christopher, the patron Saint of Travelers, carrying the infant Jesus on his shoulder across a mighty river; and on the other side, a working compass. So, with this one pendant you can both showcase your fantastic sense of style, and make sure you never get lost.
This circa 1960 designer pendant has a fantastic and unusual handcrafted matte finish on the outside and a wonderful weight and feel in the hand. This pendant looks superb on a heavy gold chain, although it would still be quite impressive on a simple cord. It measures 31.5 mm long with the bale, 25 mm in diameter and it weighs an impressive 23.2 grams. The bale is marked ‘750’ for 18 karat gold and it also has some other marks that are a bit worn and hard to make out. I purchased this piece in London and strongly suspect that it is European in origin.
Being an international woman of mystery myself, I simply couldn’t resist this charming and very unique vintage find!

Vintage 50s Peridot Cocktail Ring, 18k Gold
$ 1,400.00
I love, I love, I love a juicy, big, flashy peridot ring. I have one in my personal collection and it doesn't languish in the drawer, that is for certain. This wonderful mossy, bright, green-grass-in-springtime color comes in handy more times than you can imagine, and it never fails to get noticed!
This ring was handmade right smack dab in the middle of the 1950s, when cocktails were as much an event as a drink and a lady didn't go out without her red lipstick and matching bright manicure (this ring positively screams for a great mani). This big, bold peridot gem is a faceted oval cut that measures 11.3 mm north to south and 9.5 mm across, it's a deep stone, at 6 mm, and has an estimated weight of about 4.3 carats. The top is a tiny bit abraded from years of wear (see, it's never languished in anyone's jewelry box), but while this is visible in these enlarged images, it's not that noticeable on the hand (see the on-hand photo). This ring is currently a size 9, and this simple yet lovely crown-style mounting would be easy to resize to suit. The ring weighs 3.2 grams.

Vintage Citrine Diamond Ring Cocktail
$ 3,200.00
It looks like the sun as it sets in the west, over the horizon of the desert. It infuses the sky with citrus shades of orange, peach, and apricot. She would taste the dusk if she could. Instead, she’ll wear this ring, and gaze at it as its colors transform, as the sun sinks deeper and deeper into the earth.
This vintage citrine and diamond gold ring was handcrafted around 1960. It’s a size 4.5 and weighs 15 grams. This ring was made in beautiful 18 karat yellow gold. The center of this ring boasts a juicy citrine stone, deep cognac in color and beautifully faceted. It’s 6.06 total carats and measures 14.2 x 11.5 x 5 mm. On each shoulder of the ring lies a trilliant (trillion) cut diamond, measuring 5.3 x 5.3 x 1.6 mm. Each of the two diamonds are .25 carats, or .5 carats total weight for the ring. The face measures 17.8 x 19 x 7 mm, and the band width is 6.1 mm. It bears the gold purity content mark, ‘18k’, and has a maker’s mark.
Stand out from the crowd with this gorgeous cocktail ring, as orange as the fruit and as luminous as the sun!
Vintage Designer 75ct+ Citrine and Gold Cocktail Ring, c. 1960 in 18k Gold
$ 12,850.00
A giant, flashing, golden citrine is the sunshine of this fabulous flower garden; so big and juicy that one can almost smell the daisies! An homage to peace, love, and happiness, this pretty and haute couture hippie ring brings bright flower power on even the rainiest of days. With a ring like this, you could truly bring your own sunlight wherever you happen to venture!
The royal sized rectangular faceted golden citrine stone is set inside 23 various sized gold daisies, some of which are actually attached to the ring in an en-tremblant fashion, shake and twist with every move of your lovely hand. It was most likely crafted in the 1960s, possibly in France, which is where I purchased it. It is marked with an as yet unidentified makers mark (I’d be delighted to hear if anyone recognizes it!), but it’s otherwise unmarked. Although I don’t yet know the designer, this is most certainly a special designer piece, it is quite spectacular. The mesmerizing citrine is a fabulous deep golden color kissed with orange, truly the color of sunlight at dusk, it measures 29.5 mm north to south and 24.5 mm wide by 16 mm deep, and totals about 76.61carats. The ring narrows to 5 mm wide at the back of the band. It's been acid tested to ensure 18 karat gold purity. This piece is a size 8.5 and weighs 42.2 grams, I think it could be re-sized pretty easily, care should be taken to preserve the mark.
This ring makes me think of that song... 'Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows....' when this ring is near, the rain truly does disappear!

Vintage Retro Aquamarine Cocktail Ring, French Marks
$ 1,990.00 $ 2,400.00
5 o’clock cocktails, high heels, tight dresses, big hair, cigarettes, that’s the era that this fantastic cocktail ring was born into. It screams for gold lamé and a fresh manicure. Big was the fashion of the day and 1950s jewelry was bold and flashy and demanded attention, and this beautiful aqua ring is certainly no exception.
Hand crafted in 18 karat gold, this fabulous ring has a play on the Neoclassical with its columnar feel and scrolling mount. It is set with a huge aquamarine stone in the very lightest shade of blue which weighs about 20 carats (22.2x17.5x9.6mm). The ring is marked on the back with several French hallmarks, it has the import mark of the owl with a 75 on it’s chest this means it has been assayed as 750 or 18k gold, it also has two other marks, but they are too rubbed to make out. This wonderfully weighty ring is a size 7.25 US and could be resized to suit, it weighs 17.7 grams. The ring measures 23 mm north to south and 18 mm across, it is 13 mm high and narrows to 4.4 mm at the back of the band. I bought this beauty in Paris, and while it's a bit hard to date, I suspect it was made in Europe around 1950.
This ring would go perfectly with a martini, but it would play nice with ice tea as well, wearable from blue-jeans to ballgowns!

I always want you to be happy with every aspect of your purchase. If you are not completely satisfied for any reason simply let me know and we'll work together to get the item returned for a full refund. I guarantee that my pictures and descriptions are as accurate as possible. My goal is to exceed your best expectations!
