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.

*AMY KAHN RUSSELL* PIN / PENDANT: In a class all of her own, AKR jewelry is always vibrant and exciting. Choosing unusual mixes of stones and minerals, her color choices are always delightful and striking. In this original design pin/pendant the magic of blue weaves a spell that brings images of cool water and ocean breezes. The top two stones are pyritized Drusy – their wonderful texture on full display. The top one is particularly fascinating. Though blue on front viewing, it turns to violet on side viewing and to green on edge viewing. We have tried to show that in our photos, but it is much more dramatic on live viewing. The bottom stones are faceted blue and cognac topaz. All stones are bezel set. AKR designs are marked “Sterling” and “AKR”. The pin back has a safety catch and a bale suitable for a good sized chain or neck wire. This pin is valued at $280 retail. Sure to give your wardrobe a jolt of fashionable glamour.

Condition: Good. A flaw in the upper left corner of central drusy. Chain is not included.
Size: Total length is 2 1/2”, 7/8” wide, 1/4” deep.
$65.00

*SABAI* FIRE OPAL & DRUZE STERLING RING: Purchased in New Orleans from contemporary artist “Sabai”, this ethnic inspired ring features a rust colored fire opal and square cut piece of druze quartz crystals. Both stones are raised up in bezel settings and the brown druze is framed in an etched square. The wide sterling band is decorated with both an applied braided band and a band of running loops. The inside is marked “Sabai 925”. A very special ring so beautifully suited to the colors of the year – brown, green, yellow and ivory. The ring band is a size 8, but because of its width and thickness, it fits better on a size 7 or 7 1/2. Condition: Excellent. Size: Band is 5/8” wide, 1/8” thick and the fire opal and druze together measure 1 1/8”. The stones are set ¼” high above the band. SOLD!

The clip earrings feature free swinging hoops. Worn as a set or each piece alone, you will love the look and feel of this luscious designer set. The pieces are hallmarked Oscar de la Renta.

AVENTURINE (ADVENTURINE) AND STERLING SILVER CROSS PENDANT: I have always worn crosses as costume jewelry. The shape is appealing and combines beautifully with other necklaces for an artistic look. Now fashion has proclaimed crosses a “look” that is highly chic. This sage green aventurine cross was made in India and is marked “925” (Sterling) on the large bale. Extravagant in size, the six bezel set faceted stones have a shimmering quality that is caused by tiny metallic particles (mica) within the stone. Found in India, Russia and Tanzania – these green aventurine stones appear much like moss agate to me. Soft and serene, this cross captivates with its color. Condition: Excellent. The soft green is semi-translucent and even in all the stones. The top stone appears whitish in the photos due to its dense crystallization. Size: 4 1/8” long, 2 3/4” wide. Setting is 3/8” deep. $75.00

JJ144

*CHRISTIAN DIOR* TASSEL BROOCH / PIN: A strikingly contemporary take on Victorian tassel style jewelry has been created by “Christian Dior” in this chic gold tone brooch. (Purchased about 10 years ago.) The oval frame is both shiny and matte gold. The double rope is a frosted gold tone that ends in two striking snake chain tassels. The tassels are articulated and swing when you move. The pin back has a safety clasp and bears the hallmark “Chr. Dior ©”. A smart look on a business suit or a black velvet jacket. Use your imagination! Condition: Mint. Size 3 ¾” long including tassels, 1 3/8” wide. SOLD!

LAVENDER SHELL PENDANT with STERLING OCTOPUS: I think that sea shells are one of nature’s most beautiful creations. I never tire of their exquisite colors and infinite variety. This large lavender shell suspended by a textured silver setting, including a nice sized bale. On the curve of the shell rests a sterling octopus with its tentacles spread. You can use a medium sized chain or a thin neck wire to wear this gift from Mother Nature. There is a silver tag affixed to the back that reads “Handmade Sterling”. Under the Sea at its very best! Get ready for a vacation cruise, a beach wedding or a party beside the pool. Condition: Excellent. Size: 3 1/2” long, 3” wide, silver octopus is 7/8” in diameter. $40.00

STERLING SILVER & AMBER RING: This long rounded and polished piece of Butterscotch Amber has been set in an unusual bezel frame decorated with Sterling Silver leaves and vines. The amber has a lovely shaded effect – you can see why it’s named “butterscotch”. The sterling shank is stamped “925” and hallmarked “SJ”. I’ve had this ring for about 18 years. I like the fact that it has a feminine look to the design and it slants to fit comfortably on your finger. Ring size is 6 1/2. Condition: Excellent. Size: 2” long, 3/4” wide, 1/2” deep. Ring can be sized up or down. $50.00

ORIENTAL WOODEN NECKLACE WITH DRAGON BOX: All of my life I have been fascinated with tiny boxes. What magic, secrets or treasures might they hold? This extravagant necklace is enhanced by the subtle interplay of earthen tone beads. Opulent yet playful, the beads are shades of old gold, dark brown, copper and both painted and unpainted pale wood. The focal point is the alluring carved box. It appears to be made from stained bone. The center of the box has two carved dragons on each side. There is a carved dark brown top inset with a bone winged insect. A large carved horn fish sits atop the lid. The box top opens slightly, but not enough to insert anything but a slip of paper. Oriental cultures often insert written prayers into such prayer boxes. The ring and hook closure is very interesting because the hook has been decorated with two bird heads. This light weight necklace is irresistible to those of you who have a taste for the exotic. Any color will be enhanced by these multiple earth tones. The design of the necklace delights the eye and its timeless beauty will never be out of style.

Condition: Excellent.
Size: Box is 2 1/2" high, 1 3/4" wide and 1 1/4" deep. Beaded necklace is 27” long.

*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!
