*DIAN MALOUF* STERLING SILVER & 14KT RING: This large and bold contemporary Dian Malouf ring was purchased in San Antonio. (c. 1995) The center stone is a beautiful square, high domed piece of labradorite. The stone flashes predominately green/gold with hints of blue and some wine veining. As always, the setting is remarkable. There are dozens of small raised squares covering all four surfaces of the ring. Most are sterling silver, but there are four 14KT gold squares on each side. I love the way that you can see the designs above your finger every time you move your hand. And the ring is so comfortable to wear. The band is lightly beaten silver and it curves smoothly around the back of your finger making it so comfortable to wear. I wore it on my pointer finger to show off the design. This labradorite ring is heavy, thick silver with the inside of the band marked “.925 14KT” & “DLM ©”. The ring size is a 7. Declare yourself to be bold and extravagant! A perfect gift for you!


Condition: Excellent. Original “Dian Malouf” marked pouch included.
Size: 1 3/8” square, 1/2" raised above your finger, labradorite stone is 3/4" square. The ring is a 7. Can be sized.
SOLD!

ANTIQUE TIBETAN TRIBAL PENDANT: Perched on a plateau in the Himalayas, Tibet at first glance appears to be a country overshadowed by its much larger neighbors – India to the west and China to the east. Tibet is known worldwide for its astonishing jewelry, such as this piece. The large silver cap on this coral pendant is decorated with a repoussé design representing a ram. Repoussé is a method of embossing a metal sheet by punching and hammering a design from the back, then polishing it up in front with a chasing hammer, producing a three dimensional surface. The cap is then filled with pitch or some other substance to make it solid. There is a large natural branch of red coral below the silver cap. The coral is smooth to the touch and is said to protect the wearer from harm and illness. Who knows how many owners have passed this ethnic beauty along on its journey to you. A fascinating piece of cultural history, this pendant is certain to interest any collector of the exotic and intriguing.

Condition: Excellent. Chain is not included.
Size: 3 1/8” long including bale, 1 1/2" at widest point, 3/4" deep. Silver cap is 1 5/8” high, coral is 1 1/2" long.

*TABRA* STERLING SILVER JAGUAR CAT FACE EARRINGS: Earrings designed by Tabra Tunoa are some of my favorite pieces – and are hard to part with. I love the light weight feel and the ethnic inspired look of her designs. These pierced earrings feature a Mammoth Bone or Ivory hand carved jaguar face, one of Tabra’s signature designs. The jaguar was a powerful symbol of Mayan, Aztec and other ancient cultures. It represented a shaman’s supernatural transformation – the ability to enter the spirit world. Legend says that the jaguar roams over the Mayan underworld at night and by day prowls across the morning sky. By wearing these jaguars one hopes to acquire strength, power and the ability to transform. Notice the faces with their haunting eyes, whiskers and fur all delicately rendered. The bezel setting and articulated garnet drop are sterling silver and the outer, more ornate decorations have been textured with a gold wash over silver. The pierced backings bear the hallmark “Tabra” and “925”. Women….choose your magic carefully. Feel the heat of the jungle and show your wild side wearing these mystical earrings by Tabra.

Condition: Excellent. Tabra card not included.
Size: 1 3/4” long, 1” wide. Jaguar faces are 5/8” high, 1/2" wide.

*AMY KAHN RUSSELL* FROG PIN / PENDANT: This is an original AKR design. The top stones are an oval cabochon amethyst and a charming ametrine hand carved fish. The center is a delightful froggy, hand carved from fallen deer antler. Lots of detail on froggy – his back has carved ridges and he has large eyes and a mouth. He is three dimensional with his head raised. I love his fat little body! The bottom stones are a yellow citrine and 2 peachy colored pieces of mother-of-pearl. The stones and the frog carving are all bezel set in Sterling Silver with a safety clasp pin back and a hook large enough for a nice sized silver chain or a neck wire.

PEARL & RHINESTONE GLOBE PENDANT NECKLACE: This globe shaped pendant necklace reminds me of Miriam Haskell’s work. Suspended from a decorative long gold tone chain, this “disco” ball glitters and sparkles, promising you a night (or day) of glamour. The basic ball shape is a gold tone filigree design and the chain slips over your head. Each large pearl is set in the center of two rings of rhinestones. Large and small prong set stones cover the entire surface. Wear this bejeweled eye dazzler mixed with other pearls or gold chains for a look that would pass inspection by Coco Chanel. How neat to look so chic!

Condition: Excellent.
Size: The globe is 1 3/4” in diameter. The chain is 36” long. It can be knotted to make the globe dangle at whatever level you desire.

VINTAGE RED, WHITE & BLUE ANCHOR PIN / BROOCH: This vintage patriotic Anchor Pin is a real treasure! (c. 1944) It is set with red, white and blue opaque stones set in silver tone metal. Take a look at the photo of the back – the entire piece is metal, not like so much of today’s costume jewelry. The stem of the anchor is flexible so that the whole piece is free swinging from the safety pin clasp at the top on down. This pin is from my personal collection of anchors. Anchors have historically represented “hope” as seen in all of the “faith, hope & charity” jewelry prominent in Georgian and Victorian periods. This being a WWII vintage pin, it would have held special meaning to the woman who wore it! A wonderful patriotic pin for special holidays and the perfect accessory for cruise wear. Dynamite on a white jacket!

Condition: Excellent. No stones missing.
Size: 3 1/2" long, 2 3/8” wide.
$110.00

All made of Sterling Silver, the wide bale at the top will accommodate a thick chain, neck ring or an omega necklace. The textures and detail make this pendant a pleasure to hold, touch and wear. It is fabulous on a multitude of warm and cool colors. A design piece that shows wonderful character and fine workmanship. Condition: Excellent. Size: 3 3/4” long including bale, 1 1/2” wide, 1/4” deep. Drusy portion is 1 1/2” long, suspended topaz is 5/8” long. $110.00

*AMY KAHN RUSSELL* FROG BRACELET: I love frogs! You will see several items from my frog jewelry collection being posted in the future. This delightful AKR bracelet will bring a smile to your face every time you look at these amazing tiny creatures. Six hand carved bone froggies, embellished with green body details and jet black eyes, will keep you entertained. The frogs are all bezel set in Sterling Silver and hallmarked “AKR”, “Sterling”. The six pieces are held together by ring links so that the bracelet is flexible and easy to wear. There is a toggle & ring closure – much easier to put on alone than the spring ring style fastener. Frogs are disappearing from the earth, so grab these guys. Condition: Excellent. Size: 7” in length, each frog is 1 1/2” high, 1” wide. Will fit a medium wrist. My wrist is 6 1/2” over the bone and it fits me perfectly. Remember that you must have some slack to fasten the toggle. $150.00

*SEAN BROWN* CERAMIC CAT FACE PIN / PENDANT: This dramatic ceramic jungle cat face pin is a small work of art by Colorado artist Sean Brown. Each design is hand cut from clay. The piece is then hand painted, glazed, overglazed with 22 Karat gold and fired multiple times. Gold wire spirals and beads have been incorporated into the sides of the cat face. This wild jungle cat has been endowed with its own unique personality! Impressed into the back is the designers hallmark “Sean Brown” in script, the date “© 08” and the symbol of a hand. You have the option to turn the pin into a pendant by purchasing the tubular slide on the gold tone pendant converter with a bale for a chain. Once you have this pendant slide it can be used on many of your own pins. (For a larger pin you need to add some round beads to each side to balance the converter.)
