Edwardian Moonstone Necklace with Spinel Garnet Zircon and Citrine
$ 7,250.00
The man showed skill in arguing. His jewels glittered up at me, beckoning with their beauty; one necklace in particular had caught my eye and just wouldn’t let it go. But the man wouldn’t come down in price, just wanted to haggle, to argue. Finally, I shook my head and walked away.
“It’s just too dear,” I said as I was leaving, using the English slang for too expensive.
It was easier to walk away then it was to forget the beautiful necklace, and my mind kept wandering back to it, although I wouldn’t let my feet follow. Twenty minutes later as I stood at another booth eyeing a silver bangle, I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around to find the argumentative gentleman holding out the beautiful necklace.
“Okay,” he said, “you win.” And friends, win I did!
So, here it is, just for you, this stunning Edwardian necklace with it’s bohemian feel and mix of rich colors. Set with 12 glowing blue moonstones which add up to a whopping 26.88 carats in total; it also contains 4 spinels, blue and orange and red which total 6.09 carats, 4 zircons in green, orange and golden hues which add up to 11.04 carats, 2 garnets in pink and deep red which are 2.28 carats together and one golden yellow citrine of 1.32 carats. This necklace is truly a cornucopia of stunning gems! The array of gems are set in 15 karat gold with a 9 karat gold engraved flat barrel clasp, measuring just over 15.75 inches long, it weighs 20.4 grams. The necklace has no marks and has been acid tested to verify the gold content. It was hand crafted in England in about 1905.
A chocker fit for a queen, this necklace would make a stunning wedding jewel, but it would be equally killer with jeans and a starched white blouse, or dress up any simple shift in black, blue, red, or gold.

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.

Antique Art Nouveau Sapphire Diamond Twist Ring 18k Gold
$ 1,200.00
Sapphires have been attributed to royalty since the beginning of written history. The color and rarity of the stone signified power and wealth. The idea that they came from the East, was intriguing, as it was a place branded as a treasure chest of gems and riches, most likely because of the traders selling to the West. During the Middle Ages, sapphires were thought to be the divine stone, and shield the wearer from harm and disease. The Edwardian era marked a time of luxury and indulgence. Sapphire rings with diamond accents, like this ring, were considered en vogue.
This antique Victorian sapphire and diamond gold ring was handcrafted in Birmingham, England around 1900. A sapphire stone sits at the center of six diamonds that twist around the face, all set in 18 karat gold. The beautiful blue sapphire measures 3.5 mm in diameter and 2.8 mm in depth, and weighs approximately .25 carats. Each of the diamonds are round and Old European cut, totaling an approximately weight of .20 carats. The ring face measures 7.4 x13.5 x 3.8 mm off the finger and the band width is 1.4 mm at the back. It has been fully hallmarked and bears the crown mark for England, the gold purity mark, “18”, and the anchor for Birmingham. This ring is a size 7.75 and weighs 2.6 grams.
Give her an engagement ring that she’ll gaze at for hours and show off for years. This sapphire and diamond beauty should do the trick.
