Vintage Art Deco Tourmaline Diamond Ring 14k Gold Red
$ 4,100.00
It’s like an apple, the reddest of the red sort, crisp and sweet with a touch of tart. But this is the sort of red you get to wear on your finger, like a crown. It’s the color of the center of a cherry blossom, the darkest of pink, and stunning in the light. It’s the color of rhubarb pie, dark and delightful. This sort of red is the translucent red of tourmaline, the rock that looks like a good wine. It goes fabulously with a glass of it, too.
This tourmaline and diamond ring has exceptional style and flair. It features a dark pink, almost red, oval faceted natural tourmaline which measures 14x11x7.3 mm and weighs 7 .06 carats. The center stone is held by four large prongs of platinum, each of which is set with a round faceted diamond, .1 carats in total. The ring face measures 20 mm north to south and 17 mm across and it sits 7.4 mm off the finger. This ring is marked inside the band with ‘585’ for 14 karat gold, it weighs 5.9 grams and is a size 7.5US.
I believe that this ring is Continental European in origin, I purchased it in Amsterdam. It was made around 1920.

Celestial Opal and Ruby Bracelet in 9k Gold, Vintage 1969
$ 2,900.00
I simply could not resist the amazing style of this phenomenal 1960s bracelet! To be honest, I didn't even really try. It is just so beautifully made that I at first mistook it for a much earlier piece. Each plaque is hand crafted and shows a great degree of skill and an eye for style that brings to mind the designs of the cosmos. Each is set with a glowing round cabochon opal and two bright fuchsia rubies, like little ringed planets circling in their own orbits.
The panels are hand crafted of glowing yellow 9 karat gold in a fabulous sort of undulating shape, and each has fantastic details, including a full back frame to hold the bracelet up off of the wrist for an optimal play of light when it's worn. Each plaque is marked with a '9' and '375' for 9 karat gold and it also bears hallmarks indicating that it was made in London in 1969. It weighs 26.8 grams and measures 8 inches long. The plaques are 17 mm long each and 17.7 mm wide and it sits 6.5 mm off the wrist. Each of the 10 opals are 0.14 carat each for a total weight of 1.4 carats. The 20 rubies add up to about .40 carats total.
This is the kind of fantastic vintage jewel that can be worn so easily, that it can go from Barbecue to Black Tie!!

Fabulous Vintage Designer Bracelet in Heavy 18k Gold Set with Sapphires and Pearls
Sold Out - $ 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.

Funky '70s Vintage Diamond and Gold Eternity Band
$ 1,260.00
Sometimes I pick up a piece or two on a whim. Here’s such a piece, I just plain old liked it; it has style, panache even. It’s vintage, probably from the late '70s or early '80s, and has that kind of gold-belted Saturday Night Fever sort of appeal. The richness of the smooth gold links contrasts perfectly with the disco ball sparkles of the diamond center.
This handcrafted eternity ring is set with about .4 carats of modern round brilliant diamonds and is fully hallmarked. The marks indicate that it was made in England’s jewelry center of Birmingham after 1972 of ‘750’ or 18 karat gold. This beauty is 6 mm wide and is a size 5 US, it would not be easy to resize. It weighs 5.3 grams.
This band has a great feel on the hand and would play nicely with a thinner eternity band (or 2) or with a diamond solitaire. It would make a great wedding or anniversary band.
