SOLD 

Exceptional art nouveau sterling silver brooch, featuring Aphrodite in a swirling sea, circa 1905.

It’s possible that they represent the golden apples so important in many of her legends. ...click for details

Early 19th century lover’s eye miniature, in watercolor on ivory, set into a gold ring, circa 1800-1820.

It was popularized by the Prince of Wale (later George IV), the center of England’s fashionable world, during the last decades of the 18th century.
