This is one of the most beautiful antique rings I have ever had, certainly a custom made piece.

Just incredible! Excellent condition with minor wear to shank, which is marked “14k”. Size 6 ½”.

SOLD 

Early 19th century lover’s eye miniature, in watercolor on ivory, set into a gold ring, circa 1800-1820. A wonderful tradition in sentimental jewelry, the eye miniature was the most intimate token of love – only the recipient and subject, the lover and beloved, knew the eye’s identity. 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. Falling in love with the Catholic Maria Fitzherbert, a taboo f ...click for details

SOLD 

Gorgeous Victorian mourning set, consisting of an ornate dangle brooch and drop earrings. The woman who owned them thought they were onyx (so much black jewelry is called onyx!), but the earrings appear to be jet, and the brooch jet on vulcanite. They are elegant and very wearable. The brooch features a central panel in three sections and three polyhedron drops, all with applied 18k gold decorative elements.

SOLD 

Beautiful 18th century miniature in watercolor on ivory, depicting a woman on shore holding a plaque inscribed with the letter “A”, as a ship sails away in the background.
