Vintage

The 1950's was a glamourous decade, people dressed. I mean really dressed. Swing skirts, wiggle dresses, stilettos and kitten heels abounded. The word 'Cocktails' didn't refer to a drink, it referred to an event, a lifestyle even. My Great Aunt was the perfect 50's lady, no matter where they were at 5 o'clock, she and my Great Uncle would 'fix' a drink, even it meant pulling over at the closest restaurant or Supper Club. She was always stylish, hair perfectly coiffed, pants or skirts perfectly pressed, crisp even on the most wilting of Florida days. As I young girl I spent hours ogling her jewelry. She had a full set of jewels for every outfit, and she would have just adored this pink gemmy masterpiece! 

A bright and vibrant pink tourmaline is the star of this Retro era ring. Set in a platinum mount and accented on either side with three .065 carat transitional cut round diamonds, this rich gem has some serious star power. This oval cut stone measures 14.65 mm north to south, 11.7 mm across and is 7 mm deep for an approximate carat weight of 7.53. This ring has no marks and shows some signs of previous re-sizing. It is currently a size 6.75 and could be easily re-sized to suit a new wearer. I purchased this ring in Amsterdam and suspect that it is European in origin and dates to about 1950. It is unmarked but has been acid tested to verify content. It weighs 3.6 grams.

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.

There are two things that I tell all my guy friends when they come to me looking for engagement rings for the ladies that they've decided to spend a lifetime with. The first is that if she truly loves you, she'll say yes to ring from a gum ball machine. The second is, don't give her that, give her a diamond. 

This vintage diamond solitaire is really and truly the perfect engagement ring. The hand made platinum ring was made around 1950-60, a classically beautiful mounting, it is set with four diamonds in baguette shape and one stunningly lovely round brilliant cut diamond. The center stone has been out and graded, it weighs .72 carats and is an H color and VS2 clarity, it comes with a EGL certificate on the stone. The ring is currently a size 7.25 but could be easily sized up or down. It weighs 3.3 grams. The ring is marked inside the band with 'PLAT' for platinum and the number '296'. 

If you're looking for a traditional style ring, the kind they always have in romance movies, look no further than this gorgeous vintage diamond ring.

Contemporary even today. the chain measures 15 inches around (we could add a little chain if you’d like it longer) and the center bit measures 41 mm top to bottom and 41 mm across at the widest part up top. The necklace is crafted in sterling silver and is marked ‘silver’ on the back, it weighs 9.3 grams.

She was reading a short novel at a coffee shop made of red brick somewhere on the outskirts of London. It was another day of the same bitter clouds that had been hovering for over a month. The air was cold but she sat by a fire in the corner sipping hot espresso spiced with coriander. It tasted like that time in India when everywhere was pink and lime and heat. The noise of the people took over the streets and it smothered with bright colors. She touched the necklace that had been with her throughout her travels. She remembered how it glistened in the Indian sun as she danced in the dusty streets of the ancient city of Pali. 

This vintage hand crafted chain is 18.75 inches of silver elegance, handcrafted using filigree to create a necklace of beautiful tiny hearts. This piece weighs 17.4 grams and has been professionally acid tested. It could use with a good clean, we’ve left the patina on, but let us know if you’d like it shined up a bit. There is one panel that’s missing a silver disk on one side, see the size photo for a look at this. I think I could get it done, but it might be a little shinier than the rest. 

Take this chain on all your adventures. It’s sure to go with those faded jeans and favorite tee!

If you have hummingbirds around your house, as we do in the summer months, then you might know that one of their favorite flowers is the lovely fuchsia flower. I buy several hanging baskets each year and even now as I write this, my little hummingbird friends are getting sugar drunk on their pink and purple blossoms. So, you can see why I couldn’t resist this fabulous silver pendant when I came across it on a cold and cloudy early spring day in England. It reminded me of summer and the rich colors to come. 

Hand crafted in 800 silver, this pendant was likely made in Germany in about 1920. It is fully three dimensional and has a lovely velvety feel and soft patina. It is marked on the back with ‘800’ and a makers mark of ‘DKS’ in a circle. The pendant is on the larger size and measures 68.5 mm long and 36.5 mm across, it weighs 11.7 grams. 

This stunning pendant would look fantastic on a thick silver chain or a simple black cord. Maybe you’ll develop a following amongst the hummingbird population?!

Walking through the old diamond district in Antwerp is sublime torture. First you must pass the Del Rey chocolate shop. The chocolate at Del Rey is one of the true wonders of the world. I would bring some home for you, but there is really no point. It is so delicate that it must be eaten within a day, it is truly the most amazing thing I have ever put in my mouth, every piece is a little work of art, and the melting temperature is so perfect that in the time it takes to pick it up and put it in your mouth it begins to soften, the moment it hits your tongue it melts into sheer perfection. Honestly people, it's worth a visit for the chocolate alone. But it doesn't end there. If you make it past Del Rey, you'll be faced with an entire street of jewelry shops, one after another after another, some sell old jewelry, some new, some shop windows simply display gems, diamond in tiny clear boxes, or set on little plastic prongs, spinning away on mirrored turntables. All whilst the smell of chocolate and waffles floats on the air. A true cornucopia for the senses.

Luckily I know just the man to see, and me and my small (well, smallish, whaddya want?) bag of chocolate make our way about half way down the block to a yellow storefront with a green flag hanging out front, the sign above the door promises "Antieke Juwelen". Before I go in I check the four front windows to see if anything catches my eye. It doesn't take long for my eye to fall upon this ring. Oh, so sparkly under the halogen lights, this one was almost literally blinking at me. I admit it, I was caught in it's diamondy web.

Set in platinum (marked both PLAT an 950pt), two wonderfully bright old European mine cut diamonds twinkle and glow. They are equal in size, each is 4.6 mm across and 3.5 mm deep and weighs about .45 carats. They appear clean even with a 10x jewelers loupe and are bright white, drawing color equally from the full spectrum and sending out flashes of brilliance in all colors. The diamonds are surrounded by a modified fleur-de-lis motif and the ring is set with an additional .25 carats of old mine cut diamonds. The total diamond weight is about 1.15 carats. The ring weighs 4.4 grams.

Made in Europe, maybe even in Belgium, in about 1920, this utterly fabulous Art Deco ring would make a fantastic and unusual engagement or right hand ring. Oh, and it goes really well with chocolate, this much I know. Yum!

Sometimes when I’m shopping I’m struck by a piece of jewelry that has such whimsy that I just have to have it. Here is just such a piece! 

This wonderful morpho butterfly wing pendant is painted on the reverse of the crystal front with a beautifully detailed image of the Mayflower. The boat is shown in full sail, with flags flying in the wind. The artist has made full use of the wing to create a deep blue ocean upon which the boat floats and a bank of clouds behind it give it an excellent feeling of depth and reality. At the very bottom, the artist has labeled the ship so that we know it’s the ‘Mayflower’. 

This artsy pendant is fully hand crafted in sterling silver and is marked as such on the reverse. It measures 59.8 mm long and 36.1 mm across and weighs 13.8 grams. Care should be taken to keep this pendant dry as moisture can get under the crystal and cause discoloration of the wing. 

I’m fairly certain that this pendant was made in England and this is where I purchased it, most likely it was made around 1910-1920.

In real estate it might be location, location, location, but in jewelry it's style, style, style, and this ring has it in spades! A gorgeous engagement ring of style and substance, for a woman (or frankly, a man) who has both. This ring truly showcases the fabulous luxury of the Retro style.

This circa 1940 ring was hand crafted with a 2.3 mm 18 karat yellow gold half round band meeting a hand wrought platinum gallery with a split shank detail. The platinum has wonderful scrolling details on the sides and the square top measures 13.7 mm across and holds a 1.55 carat fabulous transitional cut diamond with a very small culet. This stunning stone measures 7.3 x 7.2 x 4.7 mm and is H/I in color and VS2 in clarity, it flashes and sparkles with every slight move of the hand. This kind of hand wrought platinum mounting is very hard to do and takes quite a high level of skill. The ring is marked on the inside with '1.55', the weight of the diamond (the diamond has been carefully measured to verify this weight). The metal has been carefully acid tested to verify content. The ring is a size 7 but could be re-sized to suit. The ring weighs 7.2 grams. This ring comes with a full independent GIA appraisal and is valued at $18,100.00.

I love, love, love this ring! Small diamonds sparkle and twinkle, but big diamonds like this one flash, and I don't know about you, but I love the flash! This ring would make a fantastic and unusual engagement ring, the platinum mount is very protective of the stone, making it a good choice for someone who might be a little bit tough on a ring.

Very nicely done, you. You braved the wild world of engagement ring shopping and now, here, after all that searching, you've finally found it. The perfect ring. 

I found this lovely and enchanting diamond wallowing away in a very ugly brooch from the 70's. This fabulous stone deserved better, so I searched high and low until I found it. The perfect mount, 14 karat white gold, simple, hand pierced, classical scrolling design. The mount was stoneless, the diamond ringless, so I married them together to create the perfect recycled ring. The diamond is a symphony of light and color. An old European Cushion cut stone (cut around 1870-1880, I suspect) which weighs 1.26 carats out of the mount. I haven't had it graded, but it is a very, very clean and white stone. The facets are large and hand cut, creating a stone which sends off huge flashes of light in all colors of the spectrum. The mount is not too high, but holds the stone up high enough to allow tons of light to enter the stone for maximum effect. Made around 1920, it is currently a size 8.25, but can easily be sized. I had the jeweler re-tip the prongs when setting the stone so that it is very secure. 

Even the most subtle movement will draw the eye to this luminous ring. Congratulations, your search is over. First you found the lady, now you've found the ring!

She’s no nonsense yet impulsive. She prefers caramel to chocolate. She’ll ride a Ferris wheel a hundred times but isn’t sure about the tea cup ride. She doesn’t always know what she wants, but she knows what she doesn’t. The one thing she’s sure about is him.

She was making pancakes on Sunday morning when he woke up and made his way to her side. He hugged her from behind, warm and comfortable, and kissed her cheek, gently and soft. His scent was of cedar and sleep. As he held her, he touched the ring on her left hand, and smiled with a look of gratefulness in his eyes. He let her go and she watched as he brewed their morning coffee, yawning, with his dark hair in an adorable mess. She found herself grinning just as he did, with that same look in her own eyes.  

This vintage European 18 karat gold band was handcrafted in 1934 in both white and yellow gold. It features floral engravings and two rows of millegrain metalwork. Yellow gold can be found on the inside of the ring while the white gold is on the outside. This piece is hallmarked with, ‘18K’, indicating the gold purity content. There is also an inscription inside that reads, ‘SAC to MEH 12.31.1934’ and another one that reads, ‘GG to LH’. The band width is 2.0 mm. This piece is a size 6.75 and weighs 2.5 grams.  (It’s possible from the construction of this ring that it predates the 1934 engraving by about 20 years, it may be that GG gave it to LH first and it was later engraved with the next users initials.) 

This stunning ring belongs on your finger! With both white and yellow gold, one cannot go wrong.

She met a handsome man wandering the beach during that summer heat wave. He cooked her dinner and they ate by candlelight. He took her dancing in places she never would have found on her own.

Have you noticed her dropping hints? The circles in black marker in her magazines and she leaves open on the kitchen table? The jewelry catalogs left out with sticky notes with hand drawn stars? Just this morning she commented how much she adored white gold instead of “gold-gold” as she casually poured your dark roast coffee and looked you right in the eye. Her blue eyes didn’t even blink. And last week, when you were walking to dinner, she pointed out what she thought was pretty and timeless through the store window. Well, she makes an excellently chic point.

I stared into the Alaskan sunset. I've never seen one so blue! Shades of sapphire, ocean water, blueberries, neon butterfly wings and midnight took over the sky. One single streak of horizontal orange poked through the cool colors. I tightened my fleece blanket around my shoulders and sipped my peach tea. Nothing beats dusk from Kachemak Bay. The unforgettable beauty is worth the Alaskan cold. This necklace reminds me of that night, of the reflected icy waters of the bay at sunset. 

This vintage Art Deco silver paste necklace was handcrafted in silver, with two translucent icy blue paste (glass) gems, one is shaped into a long and lovely teardrop, the other is a round faceted reflector of blue light, both encompassed with a silver setting, on a chain with classic style. The blue gems are highlighted by a ring of clear paste gems for added sparkle, the look of aquas and diamonds made in the 1920s with pure Art Deco style, the price of paste! It's been tested for silver, however, the clasp is not silver. It is 16.5 inches long and weighs 9.2 grams. 

This Art Deco necklace adds a unique flair, Who needs warm weather when you have such icy style?

Excellence is in the details. The shine of a shoe, the knot of a tie, the link of a cuff. Not everyone will notice the details, and that's okay, they don't need to, it's the overall package that will shine. "What is it about that guy?” they will ask themselves, "how does he always seem so put together?". I know how. It's in the details. 

Take for example these fantastic 18 karat gold and diamond Lion cufflinks. Hand crafted by a true master of the art, finished on the back as well as on the front, even though only you will know. A thing of beauty, indeed. Easy on, easy off, no need for assistance of any kind. Marks and testing verify that they are solid 18 karat gold, their feel in your hand will verify this as well, they weigh 10.2 grams together. Each link is set with a .15-.2 carat transitional cut diamond. Made in England around 1920, they have the makers mark ‘GWC’ and are marked ’18’ for 18k gold.

She was standing on the balcony in the salty summer air looking out into the dark blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Before she knew it, she was running down the stairs, out the door, and onto the rocky sand of the beach.

There was a picture of her in one of those little flapper hats that looks a bit like an upturned bowl on your head, only stylish, you know, with a bit of an upturn and a flash of feather, peacock most likely. She had her hair cut into a perfect bob, not a strand out of place, a perfect and smooth cap of hair under that bowl of a hat. She was wearing these earrings, they hung down below her hair, made her neck look swan-like, and they are glittering, even in this old photo, glittering in the glow of the flashbulbs. 

Yes, these are those earrings! The ones the posh ladies in F. Scott's novels were wearing, the ones that make you turn you head just a little bit more, make you want to wear your hair up, or even dare the perfect bob. Made in the 1920's, they wear just as easily today. Hand crafted in 14 karat white and yellow gold, these earrings are set with beautiful, glittering Old European mine cut diamonds. One of the stones measures 7.75 x 7.77 x 4.22 mm and weighs approximately 1.67 carats, this one is a VS2 stone and K in color. The other diamond measures 7.78 x 7.82 x 4.56 and weighs approximately 1.83 carats, this one is a SI2 stone and also a K color. The earrings are 32.4 mm from top to bottom and 10 mm across at the widest point. Together they weigh 4.4 grams. 

These beauties would make the perfect go-to earrings, they have wonderful movement and are so much more interesting than your standard studs. The diamonds are old cuts so their larger facets flash with bright beautiful colors of light. To be honest, I am a little loath to give them up, but, everyone deserves a great pair of earrings like these and mama taught me not to be greedy, so...
