This cuff bracelet is English, circa 1880. It is more unusual than most, having fine pierced work creating vines,leaves and flowers. The use of multi- colored gold used with silver, became popular when the art of Japan was widely introduced in Europe. Commodore Perry credited with bringing about a trade agreement with Japan also opened the world to Japanese art and culture. In this example the pierced silver work is superb as is the hand engraving. The open work adds not only light, but looks ...click for details

This antique sterling locket is English, circa 1880. The Aesthetic Movement is evident in this lovely locket with its multi- colors and naturalistic theme. This movement was born with the trade agreement made between the United States and Japan. Japanese art found a new market and silversmiths in England eagerly designed jewelry for the populace that desired this new look. This locket is typical of the fashion, finely detailed with vines and a flower motif. The leaves are finished in a yellow go ...click for details

Each time I come across something unique it thrills me. This pair of earrings are English, circa 1850, and are exquisitely rendered in gold and turquoise. The condition defies the age, as these are near pristine. They are designed as clusters of flower heads centered with cabachon turquoise stones. The original patina of the 18k gold is extraordinary and rich. It is also remarkably light, and almost floats on the ear and yet it makes a bold statement. It measures almost 2 3/8 inches long with th ...click for details

I rarely get this form of earring in inventory, but just in from Paris, are these spectacular paste earrings. This very desirable form is a solitaire with a tiny paste accent stone on the top. Each paste is set in silver, hand crimped collets just as the diamonds were set in this period. They are 19th century back to front gold fittings that are a very pale rose gold.
The earrings measure 3/4 inches long x slightly less than 1/2 inches wide. The large stones are a cushion shaped rose cut. The ...click for details
