Antonio Pineda is one of the most celebrated Maestro's from the Mexican Silver Renaissance. This iconic bracelet was not just designed it was engineered with high sweeps that come to a peak and an amethyst that one pushes to open. Photos show a side view of the mechanism. The design bends and refracts light that catches the eyes of all who pass you by. There is no damage to the bracelet and closes with a crisp click. You will see glare in my pictures...

A chariote sterling pin signed Aidan Toronto. This fine studio .925 sterling silver 2-5/8 x 1-1/2" pendant pin features a Charoite stone.

This pin is signed AIDAN TORONTO HANDMADE SILVER 925, and it has a safety catch as well a loop for wear as a pendant and another loop for wear horizontally...

This Bracelet is a design most recognized by Fred Davis. Hallmarked Mexico Silver and being 7.25in. long and 1.5in. tall makes this bracelet quite a statement maker. The bezels are very well made and there are no dents or chips to the stones or silver. Even though it has an open air design it still weighs 65 grams heavy. Very soft and silky to the touch it is a pleasure to wear.

A delightfully feisty-looking cat is featured in the French Art Nouveau brooch. We’re particularly fond of his enormously long whiskers that stretch the full width of the pin. The pin is stamped with French silver marks and with an illegible maker’s mark.

NOTE: The pin could be worn as a pendant with the addition of a bail to the back.

• Origin: France, ca. 1905.

This ring is a size 11. It is sterling silver with an onyx "center." It has interesting decor on each side (of the band). It is marked STER with a maker's mark of which I am not familiar (maybe an R with a dot in the middle). I believe it is American made: c. 1950's. It is solid with good heft and is in excellent condition.

The V-spring box clasp is marked on each piece: the V-spring has the Mexican Assay mark with a 2 inside the spread eagle. The box part is marked with words in a circle; but all I can make out is PLATA 925.

It is always vexing when a hallmark eludes identification and this is (almost) the case with the towering vintage silver ring at hand. Brutalist in design, having a big, semi-translucent chrysoprase cabochon nested in its elevated setting, it bears a partial hallmark which has been suggested to me is probably a maker’s mark from Spain. Home of renowned modernist designers such as Joachim S’Paliu and Puig Doria, Spain sounds like a plausible place of origin for our 1970s ring. Currently a sz ...
