This or That – Volume Eight

Baubles, Bling and Filigree Things

I know, I know…  more filigree rings.  How many of these delicate darlings can there possibly be?  Over the years we have shared more than a few, it’s true.  BUT – these two are brand new to our antique & estate department and both offer unique, charming details.  I couldn’t resist the opportunity bring you something lovely AND affordable.

First, let’s chat about this one…

Made entirely of 18-karat white gold, this beauty is simply lovely.  The ring itself was constructed in the 1920’s.  The overall shape is interesting – with subtle concave areas, a sculptural structure develops.  The filigree pattern offers a underlying botanical vibe that plays nicely with the softly rounded form.  Set within an octagonal plate, the center diamond is unexpected – it’s a modern cut diamond.  Weighing approximately .45 carat, this bright gem brings all the shine.  This ring could be a marriage of an antique ring and a round brilliant diamond, it could be a remount – the possibilities are endless.  New to our shop and our site, this ring is priced right at $975.00.

Moving on to this petite princess..

Another 18-karat white gold dazzler, this little cutie is just so good.  The decoration wraps a whimsy of whorls and swirls around the slender silhouette.  Milgrain beaded edges highlight every line.  Culminating into a four-sided top, one Old Mine Cut diamond gleams from between a pair of man-made sapphires.  This diamond weighs approximately .15 carat.  It’s the crowning glory for this 1925 dream.  Also new to our site, this ring is priced at just $475.00.

Shown together on the hand, this delicate darling pairs beautifully with that dainty dreamboat.  I’m excited to offer both of them… and can’t wait to hear which you would choose.  This modern-meets-vintage vision or that sapphire-trimmed treasure?  Perhaps with pricing like this, there’s no need to choose.  Take them both!

Joe’s Special Box – Volume 110

Joden Girl

Baubles, Bling, and A Collector’s Things

Made in America.  Now more than ever, those words mean something.  Quality products manufactured right here, in cities and towns all across our great country.  This week, I am so excited to share a dynamic duo with you.  A pair of Art Deco stunners…  most likely made right here in the United States in the 1920’s.  Both pieces are classic examples of what is perhaps the most iconic period in jewelry history.  With typical trademark details including pierced filigree design, milgrain edges, and hand-engraved patterns – these rings are American beauties.

Both are platinum, and both of them feature exactly thirteen diamonds.  The all diamond one on the left has .75 carat of goods – it is perfect for a bit of right hand bling.  Trios of sculpted swirl-shaped openings decorate both the top, bottom and sides of this gem.  It’s priced to sell at just $2,250.00.  The second piece is a showstopper, no doubt.  With .85 carat of diamonds, it sparkles from every angle.  The center section of this ring has a marquise shape – it’s outlined in a series of rectangular fancy cut natural emeralds.  Not only is this ring American – we think it was made in New York City between 1925-1927!  Make it yours for $4400.00.

If you’re looking for an exemplary piece of American history that you can really enjoy…  look no further.
