Those Victorians were such sentimental creatures, Ivy for ‘I cling to thee’, Lily of the Valley for ‘Return of Happiness’ and maybe the best of all, the Forget-me-not flower for ’True love, faithfulness and Remembrance’.

This fabulous locket has all the right stuff. First of all, it’s the perfect size, not too big, not too small, but that elusive medium size. Set onto the front of the locket is a scrolling golden flower set with 8 turquoise gems, the settings are done in gold (I couldn’t test it, but it’s probably 9 karat). The locket contains two places to hold photos behind glass. This locket is unmarked but was most certainly made in England around 1870, in sterling silver (tested, not marked). The measurements of this locket are 42.8 mm north to south, 26.4 mm across and 7.1 mm thick, and weighs 12.6 grams.

It looks like it may have originated on the Isle of Skye, or been crafted by a skilled jeweler in Dublin, but this wonderful bangle with it’s Celtic motifs was actually made in Russia.

There are only a few dealers that I buy from who have such exquisite taste and such amazing collections of jewelry that I actually want to be them.

The Arts and Crafts movement was born out of a rejection of the industrial revolution. Artist felt that the mechanization of creating daily objects detracted from the enjoyment of daily life as a whole. Furniture, household items, even jewelry, once made completely by hand, were now being machined, assembly lined, destroying the unique nature of hand crafted goods. Much of the jewelry done in the Arts and Crafts style was done in silver, using gems that were inexpensive and easily sourced, but some of the firms of this era, working in this style, used gold, and I’m always a little extra thrilled when I come across these beautiful representations of the craft.

This fabulous ring was made by the firm of Murrle, Bennett & Company, an Anglo-German firm started by Ernst Murrle and J.B. Bennett, which produced pieces for retail by the store 'Liberty and Co.', famous London Arts and Crafts dealers. The company was in existence from 1886-1914, this ring was most likely made around 1900. It is completely hand crafted, of course, in 18 karat gold, and is set with a bright blue cabochon of turquoise which measures 7.7 x 6.9 x 3.3 mm. The overall face of this ring measures 14.4 mm north to south and 17 mm across, it sits 5.1 mm off the finger and narrows to 1.6 mm at the back of the band. This size 9 ring is marked inside the band with ‘18ct’ and ‘M.B.C’.

She barely felt it when he slipped it on her finger. She was too mesmerized by his eyes, their bright blue hue sparkled with mischief as his finger drew circles on the inside of her palm. They were at the theatre, but neither of them had their eyes on the stage, they were preoccupied by each other, finally alone in the dark, able to touch for the first time. ‘I love you’, he mouthed it, and held her hand up as his eyes drifted to the ring newly alighted on her finger. She felt it now and looked down in surprise. The heart shone in the lights from the stage, it was the same color as his eyes.

When Queen Victoria's Royal Court followed her to Scotland and Barlmoral Castle, the demand for Scottish jewelry in all forms flourished. The witches heart, with a tail that almost always twists to the right, had become a popular and very romantic motif in Scotland in the 17th century. Made to ward off witches and evil spirits, it was sold from small stalls or locked booths and is sometimes also called a 'Luckenbooth'. By the time this wonderful brooch was made during the Victorian era, these brooches were being given as betrothal pieces, often shown with the hearts intertwined, the message was that the receiver had ‘bewitched’ the giver!

This wonderful brooch was hand crafted in about 1880, it is beautifully detailed with blue, white, red and green enamel to the front. This piece is unmarked but tests as sterling silver. It was likely made in England. The brooch measures 40.3 mm north to south and 29.9 mm across and weighs 9.8 grams.

So, admittedly I do have a pretty big weakness for these fantastic Arts & Crafts and Art Nouveau silver and enamel pieces, but this one really got me in the feels. Something about the shape, that organic, tree of life feel to it, and the color, that bright mediterranean sea in the sunshine look to it, just had me trembling a bit. Did I mention the perfect weight and velvety feel of it? No? Did I mention how it’s the perfect piece to dress up a tee shirt and jeans or wear with a cocktail dress? No? Did I tell you how many compliments it will garner? How many conversations it will start? No? Hmmm… must’ve forgotten to mention that.

Watching Victoria, Poldark or Downton Abbey might make you think that living in the Victorian era would be glamorous. It may make you want to wander the streets of London in corsets and layered dresses amidst horse drawn carriages, to attend soirees and full out balls. However, quite apart from the crime and deprivation of the time, the diseases of this period would often wipe out whole families and even villages. I have little doubt that it was something like Typhoid or Cholera which took out the two ladies listed on this sweet and touching memorial ring.

Hand crafted in about 1868, this fantastic memorial ring is set with an oval of smooth cut Sardonyx and is wrapped in finely woven hair around the band. This wide band is fully engraved on the outside and on the inside is engraved with the inscription “Hannah Crichton died 9th Novr 1868” and “Agnes Nichol Crichton died 16th Novr 1868”. This ring is a size 8.25 US and cannot be resized. This wonderful, wide band ring measures 14.2 mm north to south at the face and 12.9 mm across, it is 9.8 mm at the back of the band.

Have you ever visited Brighton? If you get the chance, I highly recommend it. Go visit the Brighton Pavilion, a pleasure palace built by King George IV. The outside might look like a tiny Taj Mahal, but the inside is full on Chinese. Well, not real Chinese, really, but more like what the English in the 1820s thought Chinese interiors would look like. They really didn’t get it quite right, but it’s a marvel for the senses, so go anyway! And wear these earrings while you’re there, you’ll fit in just fine.

These wonderful Victorian silver earrings were hand crafted around 1880 in England. They have a nod to the Chinoiserie style that was in fashion in the late 1880s and yet they are decorated with forget-me-not flowers, showing their decidedly Victorian sentimentality. These lovelies measure 35 mm from top to bottom and 14.3 mm across and together they weigh 4 grams. They are unmarked but test as sterling silver.

Earrings like these were de rigor day-wear for the Victorian Lady, rock them alone or with a Victorian collar and locket and a bangle or two!

For a hundred reasons, I never dreamed I would find myself here, with you, in your fields. And I certainly wasn’t dressed for it. But sometimes the loss of a loved one brings drifted souls together again, and back to our roots. Wearing black for the occasion, I chose a repousse silver bangle for my wrist because it reminded me of Father, now gone, who gently pushed me and helped shape me into a strong flower.

I never knew you saw it, what I had become. You were always so willful and handsome. I was always striving to get somewhere else. Yet here I was, back home in the valley, with my high heels kicked aside and bare feet nestling into the grass beside your incredible garden. Even on a day this heavy, the green beans needed to be picked. I thought of Dad’s bold eyes every time the bracelet sparked in the sun. We harvested the hot afternoon away only breaking to drink sweet tea on your porch. The warm breeze felt so good. Your gaze even better.

This antique Victorian silver bangle was handcrafted around 1880. Using a repousse technique, the flower design in low relief wraps all the way around this stunning bangle, which has a warm hue to it as well. This shimmering bracelet is 25.8 mm wide and weighs 30.5 grams. It’s oval in shape and will hug a wrist up to 7 inches. It bears three marks, ‘STANDARD’, ‘SILVER’ and the letter ’N’.

It was the first warm sunny day of spring, with flirtation in the air and a strong desire to get out and socialize setting in. Two old friends grab an outdoor table at a familiar hangout, to fully exhale the long winter and share a bottle of Rose. One of them bubbles over with words while moving her arms generously about the air. Her dear friend wears a genuine smile and listens intently, the palm of her hand at her chin and elbow on the table. She didn’t have to say anything really to equal her companion’s spirit. Her bangle was spectacular, warming on her arm in the renewing sun.

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!

It was a perfect summer morning. They locked arms and took to the bustling streets of their neighborhood en route to the farmer’s market. He sampled buttery cheeses, prosciutto and ripe melon while she filled her basket with herbs; basil and rosemary fulfilling all her senses. She added to her carry a golden baguette, cucumbers, sweet peppers and squash. With a gentle laugh, he took the basket from her arms knowing she had yet to buy what she purposely came for - flowers. Arms now free, she joyfully filled them with zinnias, cosmos, snapdragons and dahlias, plus a sunflower or two or three. She beamed at all the colors and petals, cradling the fresh cut blooms in her arms. At that moment, the silver cuff bracelet on her wrist caught his eye as it shimmered against her sunkissed skin. Without hesitation, he leaned in for a kiss. For happiness is the pursuit of beauty.

Sitting in the glassed-in sunroom of an English Garden flat is really the best place to buy your jewelry. Nothing does as right by jewels as sunlight. I was sitting at a round glass dining table in such a room, in such a flat, on such a sunny day when the lovely lady who was showing me her wears carefully unwrapped this stunningly beautiful pendant. I immediately held it up in my hand to get the full effect of the ‘light of day’, plaque á jour enamel. Gorgeous.

This fantastic pendant was hand crafted in 18 karat gold and features a praying Virgin Mary at the center, she is surrounded by blue plique windows and clusters of red plaque flowers. The plique does have a little few areas of damage, as they so often do, most notably there is a small bit of enamel missing at the very top and there is a very tiny hole at the bottom right, I was happy to forgive it because overall it’s a very special piece. The top bale is marked with the French eagle’s head mark and a French makers mark. The pendant measures 30.4 mm north to south and 18.6 mm across, it weighs 2 grams.

Just a note, the dark portion of enamel at the bottom of the pendant in the first couple of photos is from the poster tack that we use in shooting our pictures, there’s no damage or discoloration in this area.

A diamond is, at its essence, just carbon, very specific and well-organized carbon. It’s pressurized and heated for a billion years, buried hundreds of miles beneath the grassy meadows and birch tree forests of the Earth’s surface. A deep-source volcanic eruption tears a piece of the mantle, where this carbon sits, and carries it toward the surface. It cools. We discover it, we polish it, we cut it. Then it deservingly gets adorned onto a sapphire and gold ring that somebody very lucky will wear while sipping Beaujolais as these stones, full of history and rareness, glisten in the daylight.

This fabulous Victorian sapphire and diamond ring was handcrafted in England around 1900. It features three old European cut diamonds patterned with two square sapphires.

Kate Eadie (1880-1945) was an English jeweler, known for her enamel work and manuscript illuminator skills. Her style was very Arts & Crafts, as you can see with this beautiful amethyst cross. Born in Harborne, she spent most of her life in Birmingham. She trained at the Birmingham School of Art, perfecting her craft and likely learning under the Gaskins.

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.

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 stunning brooch was made by the firm of Murrle Bennett and Company, an Anglo-German firm started by Ernst Murrle and J.B. Bennett, which produced pieces for retail by the store 'Liberty and Co.', the famous (and my personal favorite) London Arts and Crafts dealers. It’s the type of jewelry I can’t get enough of. There’s something so elegant and timeless about the stylized foliate forms, the usage of semi-precious stones, and the abstract motifs clearly influenced by nature. I can see myself now, with this brooch at the center of a white button-up blouse, faded jeans and pair of booties, just in time for fall.

When the weather starts to turn cold and the leaves turn orange you can find me in a cabin tucked away in the northern woods.

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.

I was caught singing ‘500 miles’ by my upstairs neighbor. Apparently, I forgot to close my flat door all the way. It would have been slightly less embarrassing if I hadn’t just thrown on a combination of sweat pants, stilettos, Art Nouveau jewelry and a winter hat. I was going for the ‘no one is looking’ look. He found me in the middle of the chorus, just as I reached the top of my lungs, and he knocked on the door. I almost dropped the bowl of pasta I was working on. He laughed for a while, until he offered to bring over a bottle of wine so we could enjoy dinner together. I accepted, and quickly changed my outfit-keeping this pendant and the shoes.

Whenever I’m in London I try to sneak a couple of hours to myself and visit Liberty and Company on Regent Street in the West End. On my last trip I had to sacrifice my ‘me’ time and run a few errands (including a stop at my favorite chocolatier) on New Bond Street. With my sense of direction, it wasn’t surprising I went right instead of left while leaving the chocolate shop, but imagine my delight when I popped out onto Regent Street, directly in front of Liberty’s! I must say, it was fate.

My heart belongs to the Roaring Twenties. Between F. Scott Fitzgerald, T.S. Eliot, Louis Armstrong, and the Charleston, I know I was born decades too late. Ladies donned flapper dresses with t-strap heals and beaded headbands. Jewelry was minimal, so they had to make it count. I would have worn a long pearl necklace to accentuate my bob and on my hand would be this dazzling ring, sparkling as I adjust my silk fringe wrap.

In 1890, the Birmingham Jewellery and Silversmiths’ Association opened a school specifically for jewelry making on Vittoria Street in Birmingham. More than 125 years later, the Birmingham School of Jewellery is still there, educating students in the worlds of silversmithing, horology, gemology, and more. 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.

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.

On my last trip over the pond I found this silver masterpiece at Portobello market on a snowy Saturday morning. I’ll be honest with you, I almost missed it as I was bee-lining for a café (a girls gotta have her coffee, after all) when I stopped dead in my tracks and bought this beauty. I wore it that night with a light blue cashmere dress and knee high fleece-lined boots and my, oh my, did the compliments come my way.

This antique Victorian silver bangle was handcrafted in England around 1880. It features an embossed and repoussé fleur-de-lis motif with swirling and dotted details on the front. It measures 41 x 53 x 5.4 and weighs 19.1 grams. This bracelet measures 7.5 inches in length. It has been acid tested.

I was on a boat in the Mediterranean, some might even call it a yacht, the sky was cliché blue and the company was witty and full of wine. He came over to me.

Victoria, that necklace, it’s divine.

It’s vintage.

Always shaking things up, aren’t we?

Obviously.

He wandered over to the captain to chat about seafaring and the weather. I went to edge of the deck. The water was more perfectly cliché than the sky. What a delightful day.

This vintage Norman Grant silver enamel necklace was handcrafted around 1980 in Scotland. It showcases a blue enameled flower set in silver on a 15.5-inch chain. The pendant measures 29.4 x 24.4 mm. This piece weighs 3.6 grams. The chain is marked, “STERLING” and the pendant is marked, “SILVER”.

Loving pieces like this is in my blood. It’s reminiscent of the Arts & Crafts movement and no matter where I am I love to wear Norman Grant. Now it’s your chance.
