NEW ARRIVALS

Some nights I like to enjoy a margarita pizza on the back deck with a bottle of Chianti, because why not? Throw in some garnets and I have myself a party. The hubby refills my glass as the sun sinks into the trees. The garnets around my neck glimmer in the dimming light, matching the richness of the wine and the redness of the clouds. It’s the quiet soirées that I savor the most.

This antique Edwardian gold garnet necklace was handcrafted in England around 1910 by Murrle Bennett & Company.

If there’s anything I’ve learned about antique jewelry, it’s that pieces like this can and should be worn outside of special occasions. They should be worn on whims and desires, on impulse and even if it’s just for yourself.

I love old libraries, the kinds with ladders and old spiral staircases. The quiet hush of the large rooms and the smell of old pages comfort the book worm in me. On my last trip to London, I found myself in one such library, paging through a book with large colored photographs of antique jewelry. I discovered a pendant that looked curiously like mine. It was like a time machine had collided two eras, then and now. It was a reminder that good taste can span centuries.

I test drove this fantastic ring at a garden party last week, it was hosted by beautiful people and set on the grounds of a grand manor, surrounded by lush gardens in full bloom.

The mystery of the Masons reaches back in history for centuries. Their trade began with the stonemasons, who were taught a highly skilled trade that was appreciated throughout the world. The creation of stone into geometric shapes was treasured and useful knowledge. In England and the rest of Europe, they’re responsible for building castles and cathedrals. The Masons have a long and murky history. As time progressed, especially during Medieval times, another group emerged that encouraged secret handshakes, passwords, and gatherings, they are called Speculative Freemasons. They’re known for their charity work, elaborate and sometimes unexplainable temples, and secrecy.

This vintage silver Masonic pendant was handcrafted in Birmingham, England in 1937. This piece is steeped in symbolism that remains a mystery to those who are not Freemasons. The miter square and compass are featured at the top of the pendant and have been known to mean that one should remember to square his actions by the square of virtue, and to circumscribe his passions and desires. This round pendant measures 52.2 x 39 mm and weighs 32.3 grams. It bears the anchor mark for Birmingham, the lion mark for English sterling silver, and the date letter “N” for 1937. The maker’s mark reads, “BMC”. The front of this silver medallion lists the years, “1914-1918”. The back of medal is engraved, “BRO. T.J. MATTINGLY.” “No 201”.

The modern day Masonic order was founded in 1717, at a pub in London, called The Goose and Gridiron. It was where the first official Speculative Free Masons pledged their allegiance.

My romantic side swoons over pendants like these. The lady whose lover gifted her this locket was a lucky woman. Her husband would have left for the Great War, unsure of his return, around 1914. Upon his leaving he would have given his love this locket with a picture of him, so she would never be truly without him. This sentimental piece was known as sweetheart locket, or a wartime locket. It was a simple token of fidelity, a memento to last forever.

Fobs. These little pieces speak to my heart. They have secrets about them I try to uncover. What does the symbolism mean? Is this phrase attached to a famous fraternity or a clandestine brotherhood?

I found this silver pill box on my last trip to Paris. I was asked what on earth I would use it for. My rebuttal was fairly informative as there are many things to be put inside tiny boxes. I listed off the obvious things, pills, earrings, love notes, matches, and then I added rings, that extra button to the cashmere sweater I treasure oh so much, even chocolates from the chocolatier, who was just down the road from where I now stood arguing my convincing position. Now that I’m home again and have tested out this lovely box, I can tell you that les petites truffles avec café fit perfectly inside this vessel. The best part? Nobody but me will be sneaking my chocolates.

Niello is a black metalwork method that fuses to a silver base. It holds a metallic luster that is very sturdy. Ancient Egyptians likely created this copper, silver, and lead sulphide technique. The Ancient Romans made use of it as well, spreading the practice throughout Europe during the Roman occupation. During the Renaissance, it met its height in popularity as Francesco Francia and Maso Finiguerra (both goldsmiths and artists) mastered the skill. The niello trend came back again at the end of the 18th century and stuck around until the beginning of the 20th century.

For centuries, coral was believed to protect the wearer from evil, from sickness, and from pain. During the Georgian Era, coral was typically filed smooth and strung onto a necklace. Children of means would often wear a coral necklace, given to them from a loved one, to keep them safe. Of course, coral, especially red coral – the rarest and most expensive – was also fashionable. Jane Harley, the Countess of Oxford, wore a string of red coral around her neck. It was in vogue for the rich and the powerful. And honestly, I’m not convinced it ever went out of style!

This coral ring was likely handcrafted in Austria-Hungary. It’s dated, “18-7-53”, the date of July 18th, 1953. This silver stunner showcases five red-orange corals on the flower-themed ring face which measures 22.5 x 18 x 9 mm off the finger. The band width measures 1.5 mm at the back. This ring is a size 5.5 and it weighs 6 grams.

Racket sports date back centuries but tennis began in England on the lawns of well-to-do ladies’. Middle-class Victorian ladies held highly regulated lives during the mid-1800s. They weren’t allowed to pick flowers in parks or to attend public meetings. They were, however, allowed a few leisure activities and one of the most popular was tennis. It began as a casual sport, with patting a ball back and forth on a well-tended lawn. Once the men got involved, the game became more competitive with score-keeping.

Paste, or glass gemstones with strong dispersions of light, date back to at least Ancient Roman times when they would use colored glass to imitate emeralds and lapis lazuli. In the Victorian era, jewelry made with precious stones was coveted and flaunted. Paste and all colored glass was so new and rare that it became equally mesmerizing, at times even more coveted than the ‘real’ thing. Of course, they were also a fashion all their own. Ladies would wear deeply colored pastes as part of their evening jewelry sets.

During the Victorian era, at the turn of the 20th century, pigs were considered good luck, along with pansies, mushrooms, clovers, and horseshoes.

Of course, pigs weren’t just for greeting cards as their motif could easily be crafted into a tiny charm and placed on a bracelet as a way of wishing someone good luck.

You know how every once in a while a color that you really love will come into fashion and you just have to buy every sweater and jacket and tee that you can while that color is hot because you know that it might not come around again for a while? Well, this is my color. Not turquoise blue, Zircon blue. The color of my favorite cashmere sweater, the color of the water off St. Barth's on a clear sunny day.

I love a Blue Zircon, any blue zircon, but I fell especially hard for this stunning Art Deco example. Highly refractive, like diamonds, blue zircons are one of the most sparkly of gems, a color so bright and rich it makes you reach for your sunglasses. Set in platinum, and supported by four old European cut diamonds, this vintage ring likely dates to about 1920. The zircon measures 10.5 x 7.3 x 5.4 mm and weighs about 4.8 carats, the four diamonds have a total carat weight of .4 carats. The face of this ring measures 11.2 mm north to south and 20 mm across, it sits 6 mm off the finger. This wonderful ring is a size 9 weighs 2.4 grams.

If you are looking for that special 'something blue' for your wedding day, look no further, this instant heirloom is sure to have a special place on the fingers of brides in your family for generations to come.

A note from Victoria: Zircons are susceptible to color change from strong UV light and extreme temperature, so be caution and don’t wear your zircon in a tanning booth or to get a gel manicure, make sure that it you get work done on your ring you tell the jeweler that the stone can’t take heat.

Raymond Peynet was a French illustrator born in 1908. His most famous works were based on two characters he dubbed as ‘The Lovers’, or, ‘Les Amoureux’ in French. They were painted and drawn on vases, jewelry, prints, books, posters, and even postage stamps! Cherished by an entire culture for more than half a century, this beautiful piece of jewelry features these two beloved characters.

This darling vintage silver necklace was handcrafted in France around 1940. It’s a heart shaped piece, perfectly fitting for this romantic motif. The pendant is larger then the ones I usually see, it measures 25.4 x 22.7 mm and the chain measures 19.75 inches in length. It bears the image of two people, a man and woman who seem so in love, gazing at a precious bird sitting in his hand. It looks as thought they’re on a cloud, probably cloud nine. The back of the pendant reads, “Les amoureaux de peynet” and it also reads, “Graves non contaux”. It bears a maker’s mark and has been acid tested.

These lovers would be an adorable gift for that special someone in your life.

Pearls look like miniature moons, or dots of frosting. They resemble fresh snow on a rooftop, or the foaming of a waterfall. They’re a lustrous natural phenomenon that was once reserved only for nobility, as finding beautiful pearls, like the ones on this necklace, was near impossible. 

This 14 karat gold, link necklace, features nine freshwater pearls evenly spaced on a 15.75 inch chain. Overall, this lovely necklace weighs 5.4 grams. It bears no marks and has been acid tested. Each pearl measures 6.8 mm in diameter.

A strand of pearls is an iconic accessory. It goes with gowns, jeans, and everything in between. This necklace would make a lovely first communion gift, it’s the perfect first jewel!

There is a common story told of two young lovers who tie a tree limb into the shape of a knot. They wait a year for the tree to grow. If the knot was to hold, it was believed the relationship would endure. If it did not, then it was not meant to be. Knot rings like this one were not just for lovers or a symbol of a betrothal or engagement. They were also given as friendship rings, as all cherished relationships should last a lifetime and never be untied.

This vintage American love knot ring was handcrafted in 14 karat gold. The ring face measures 14.3 x 12.3 x 4.3 mm off the finger and the bandwidth is 4.8 mm at the back. This charming ring weighs a hefty 11.5 grams and is a size 10. It bears the gold purity hallmark, “14K”.  

This symbol of love eternal would look elegant on the finger of a gentleman or a lady, or lovely dangling from a matching chain from her neck!

I can see her now, standing at the edge of the Isle of Harris, watching the waves of the Atlantic hit the rock. She can taste the saltwater in the warm air as the wind blows by, swirling her long red curls all around her head. The pendant she wears matches the lands she stands on, with the thistle motif at the center of a Maltese Cross, set with native Scottish stones. It is Gaelic, it is in her blood.

This large antique Scottish silver pebble pendant was handcrafted in Scotland around 1880. This thistle themed cross pendant features orange-red agate and dark green bloodstone that make up the arms of the cross with a thistle, the symbol of Scotland, at the center. The edges are engraved, adding even more detail to the piece. It measures 68.5 x 57 mm and weighs 22.4 grams. There are no hallmarks and it has been acid tested.

This piece of pebble jewelry would look amazing on a matching silver chain or a black silk chord, as long as it is strung around your neck!

Don’t worry, you can get it, it’s not just about the accessories you were, it’s in your confidence, and the way your smile reaches up and encompasses your eyes.
