A signature design for Margot de Taxco, the koi silver and amethyst clamper bracelet is a must-have for the dedicated collector and the lover of things beautiful alike. Executed in dramatic repoussage that looks more like sculpting because of its depth and the thick silver sheet used to craft it, Margot's original is far above and beyond all contemporary emulations be they signed by a known maker or anonymous. I leave the rest to the descriptive power of photography. The clamper has a 6 1/4" in...

Magnificent long silver and turquoise screwback earrings by Matilde Poulat. These are hallmarked with her very earliest mark, dating them 1934-40. The scrolling silver work is stunning and delicate and the center drop dangles freely. These measure 2 1/8" long and weigh 19 grams total. There is a very slight ding at the bottom of one of the center dangles that is visible in the photos, but it in no way detracts from the beauty of these fine earrings. Let us remember that they are 75 years old or ...
Because the Japanese used a minimum of furniture and usually sat on the floor, frequently an arm rest, kyosoku, was used either singly or in pairs. This simple wooden Meiji period arm rest would have been appreciated for both its form and finish. The wood was first burned with hot coals and then scrapped with the result that the softer sections of wood would be carved out more deeply. This process would leave the "wavy" sculptural pattern on the surface of the wood.

This attractively-shaped jar, or bottle, was made during the 13th - 15th centuries at the Sawankhalok kilns.

When anyone looks at this classic 18Kt yellow gold broach, there is no mistake recognizing it as an original Tiffany and Company design. The sea anemone pin was created in the 1970’s, and presently it is not listed as available on the Tiffany web site. The diameter of the broach is 1 ½ “and it is made of solid 18Kt gold, which makes it quite substantial. The double pin makes the broach sit well on any piece of clothing.

Eagle 22, one of the assay marks used by Fred Davis, is stamped on the bracelet at hand and its design combined with the fact that Davis was not at all meticulous at signing his pieces makes me believe that we might as well be dealing here with one of this creations. The carved amethyst "masks" are rendered in the most minimalist manner, a classic Abraham Paz / Fred Davis characteristic. For me, they also bring to mind ancient Cycladic art yet they were made thousands of years later in a totally...
