Vintage Retro Aquamarine Cocktail Ring, French Marks
$ 1,800.00
5 o’clock cocktails, high heels, tight dresses, big hair, cigarettes, that’s the era that this fantastic cocktail ring was born into. It screams for gold lamé and a fresh manicure. Big was the fashion of the day and 1950s jewelry was bold and flashy and demanded attention, and this beautiful aqua ring is certainly no exception.
Hand crafted in 18 karat gold, this fabulous ring has a play on the Neoclassical with its columnar feel and scrolling mount. It is set with a huge aquamarine stone in the very lightest shade of blue which weighs about 20 carats (22.2x17.5x9.6mm). The ring is marked on the back with several French hallmarks, it has the import mark of the owl with a 75 on it’s chest this means it has been assayed as 750 or 18k gold, it also has two other marks, but they are too rubbed to make out. This wonderfully weighty ring is a size 7.25 US and could be resized to suit, it weighs 17.7 grams. The ring measures 23 mm north to south and 18 mm across, it is 13 mm high and narrows to 4.4 mm at the back of the band. I bought this beauty in Paris, and while it's a bit hard to date, I suspect it was made in Europe around 1950.
This ring would go perfectly with a martini, but it would play nice with ice tea as well, wearable from blue-jeans to ballgowns!

Artistic Vintage Mid-Century Abalone Silver Ring Danish by Carl Ove Frydensberg
$ 380.00
It was all in a glance, the way she turned her head when she thought she heard her name across the room. Her eyes gazed around, searching. The silver abalone ring around her finger reflected light from the bright chandelier, just for a second, as she shifted. The abalone took on a life of its own, shining like moving water from the inside. She turned back to her conversation, as if nothing had happened.
This vintage silver abalone ring was handcrafted in Denmark by Carl Ove Fryensburg. It was crafted around 1950-60 with a round shimmery and colorful slice of abalone shell. This ring is a size 7 and it weighs 7.7 grams. The ring face measures 18.8 x 19 x 10.8 mm off the finger and the band width is 7 mm at the back. It bears the silver fineness mark, “STERLING”, the origin mark, “DEMARK” and the maker’s mark, “COF”.
This retro ring sits high on the finger, like a statement piece should.

British Mod Vintage Sterling Silver Cufflinks, London 1973
$ 250.00
A man in cufflinks is a man who has gone the extra mile. A man who believes in the value of a well cut suit, a man who wears a vintage Cartier watch because he wants to, not because he needs it to tell him the time.
Sterling silver cufflinks with a mod look. These handmade hight style links were made in London in 1973 and are fully hallmarked with the city code, letter date, '935' for sterling and the makers mark JSH (or JSW?). I didn't have them polished, but I could, they have some light tarnishing around the insides, let me know if you'd like them to look like new and I'll have them shined up. They weigh 17.6 grams.
Very well turned out, just like you.

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.
