This 18K gold brooch (pin) has a highly sculptural, swirling and three dimensional design. The piece is basically circular and has an undulating curving structure. The surface has a florentine finish while the edges of each curve are shiny. The whole is pierced with circles of varying sizes. There's a lot going on here but it all works together. The pin is roughly 1 3/8 inches in diameter and has a trombone clasp. Marked 18K on the rear, it would be easy to add a bale to this so it could ...click for details

Unusual studio ring made from sterling silver with gold applied leaf, no marks but tests as sterling. The horizontal oval shaped bezel has a slightly mottled surface with three fused squares of silver brushed over with gold leaf. The setting is 1/2" x 1 3/8" and the bezel sides are 1/8" high. The ring is a size 5 1/2 and could probably be sized up moderately. Very unusual and artistic ring.

Classic sterling silver and rock crystal ring
by Alton, Sweden dated 1973. The rock crystal set in a high and open setting allows light to pass through this faceted rock crystal. The crystal is 10mm in diameter and the 10mm high setting is set on a post so it rises 13mm above the finger. This is "new old stock", never worn. It's a size 7 1/2 but open in the back so it can resized somewhat either way. Marked as pictured.
