Layaway terms are available for all our items priced over $150. These exquisite matching antique bracelets were sold to me as mid-Victorian "wedding bracelets," but the extreme simplicity of their closure argues for a pre-Victorian dating - perhaps even 18th century Georgian, and certainly no later than Regency or William IV.

Our impressive intaglio brooch features the head of a Trojan War hero (perhaps Achilles), unless I miss my guess. Remember the phrase "long-haired Achaeans" from Homer? Those look to me like curls at the base of his helmet! As a Greek Revival piece, the jewel likely dates from the Late Georgian or Regency period. It was in 1806, ...click for details

Decorations like this spectacular antique handcrafted hair jewel adorned the tousled topknots, headbands and turbans of neo-Classical gals around the turn of the 19th century: the Late Georgian/Regency period in England and the Napoleonic First Empire period in France. Nothing could be a more stunning accent for your "up" do to ...click for details

Greatly detailed and flawless, this small cameo from a Boston estate was hand-carved in high relief from one piece of sardonyx (showing white on a tea-colored ground, when held to light). The jewel measures 3 inches long, with a setting that tests at 10K gold. Probable dating circa 1770-90 derives from the subject (wearing a typically la ...click for details

This very striking antique stick pin features the head of the god Mercury (Hermes in Greek parlance), who wore a winged hat and served as messenger of the gods, bringer of dreams and patron of travelers (including those he escorted to the Undergloom). Items with themes from Greco-Roman mythology are tricky to date, since there have been sev ...click for details

This extraordinary hand-crafted jewel apparently dates from the Regency period. Technically, perhaps it's Late Georgian, since the Regency didn't officially begin until 1811; however, the era is generally considered to span 1790-1830. This was a time of youth and gaiety - when George IV, while still Prince of Wales, built his fabulous palace at Brighton. Both the timeframe and styles closely paralleled those of the French Empire period and this jewel could be from either side of the Chan ...click for details
