Aug 6

Once upon a time the owner of this stunning old cut D IF Type IIa diamond took it to Cartier and had it set in the simplest of platinum settings that would do nothing to detract from their exceptionally lovely stone. This is the result and it’s now looking for a new owner to wear it, gaze lovingly at it and make others look twice at it. Swipe for video, what a gem of a ring✨

Aug 3

This wonderful brooch recalls the exuberance and style of Bulgari jewellery during the 1960s and 70s when glamorous movie stars such as Elizabeth Taylor were dedicated admirers and wearers of their pieces. The pearl has a beautiful soft colour, iridescence and lustre which contrasts with the bright sparkle of the diamonds. The cluster surround uses a mix of diamond shapes along with negative space to great effect retaining an air of lightness to this truly magnificent jewel.

Aug 1

Sunburst motifs, along with crescent moons and stars were popular motifs during the mid to late Victorian era. However, the sun is an ancient symbol and has been depicted across all cultures throughout time from the ancient Egyptians onwards. Representative of eternal life, power, birth and divinity the sunburst is found in many forms represented in architecture, heraldry, art, jewellery and more. This beautiful brooch has been set with a multitude of bright and lively diamonds and whilst it isn’t going to keep you warm, it certainly shines brightly.

This gorgeous 1930s cluster ring has a beautiful Colombian emerald centre surrounded by super sparkly old European cut diamonds. In the video I think you can just about see that the emerald has the gota de aciete effect that some of the finest Colombian stones exhibit. A really stunning vintage cluster ring.

Jul 26

Insects were hugely popular motifs in Victorian jewellery and meaning was attached to them all - the dragonfly represented metamorphism and change, for obvious reasons. This is a lovely example, the old cut diamonds are bright and sparkly and the delicate antennae and legs have been carefully crafted, it would look perfect pinned to a shoulder, lapel or even hat where it would appear to have alighted briefly before flying off again.
