Rose gold hammer finish night and day curb link bracelet made in 1908
The curb link padlock bracelet is such a traditional design and here is a very beautiful and unique night and day bracelet that was made in 1908. The night and day curb link bracelet was thought to have originated to wear the plain side during the day and the engraved side during the night. While this does have merit, it is more realistic that this was a design feature that was named so after its inception. Often found with rounded links, this one follows that path however with one side having an amazing hammer finish to it as opposed to engraved links. With each ling measuring 10mm wide, it is made in 9 carat rose gold with the rose gold having such a wonderful warm colour to it. End to end the bracelet measures 19cm and is fitted with a heart shaped padlock with a safety chain, and this is so comfortable and practical to wear all the time. For any occasion, this antique bracelet is just perfect and so special. Stock# ES8706 Hallmarked: Birmingham 1908 $2,550

15 carat natural turquoise necklace from the Arts and Crafts era
The Arts and Crafts period coincided with Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods and differs to the two by having more of a naturalistic look to it, and here is a very attractive turquoise necklace from the Arts and Crafts era. Hand made in 15 carat rose gold, the necklace is set with natural turquoise displaying the host matrix running through the stone. More often than not, turquoise today is dyed to completely remove this natural vein running through the stone making these two pieces so much more attractive and unique. This works perfectly with the overall design of the piece and adds so much more charm and character than jewellery that it mass produced today. The main part measures 21.7mm across by 61.5mm from the lower piece of turquoise to the top gold section that is connected to the chain, and laid out from end to end the chain itself measures 48cm in length, allowing the turquoise section to sit perfectly on the neckline. This is a perfect piece of jewellery that can so easily be dressed up or down depending on the occasion and will always be loved and admired. Stock# ES8832 Circa: 1900 $3,900

Antique double sided turquoise and ruby locket made in the 1860’s
This beautiful antique double sided locket was made in the 1860's at the height of what is called the "Romantic period" of the Victorian era, and is so beautiful on each side and has such a wonderful tactile feel to it. Made in 9 carat gold, one side is set with a turquoise and the other a cluster of turquoise surrounding a ruby. Both sides have an engine turned design that leads to the border which is so beautifully carved and the entire locket is still in exceptional condition which is made all the more amazing when you consider that it was made over 170 years ago. Measuring 21.7mm across by 32.5mm, inside it still holds an original lock of hair, and while many might consider this mourning jewellery, this is not necessarily the case as hair was often given to loved ones a token of love and with the bright blue turquoise and the absence of black, this all points away from mourning jewellery. While the hair can be taken out and replaced with a photo, it is still a lovely reminder of a beautiful time gone by. Regardless of which way is worn facing the front, there is little doubt that it will always be loved and admired. Stock# ES8842 Circa: 1860 $2,150

Antique ruby, sapphire, emerald and diamond galleon brooch
This brooch is truly like no other and will no doubt always be admired and commented on every time that it is worn. Made in France in the early 1800's in the for of a galleon, the detail in this brooch is exceptional and more so when you realise that it was made over 200 years ago.

In total the brooch is set with eighty eight eight rose cut diamonds, fifty six rubies, nineteen sapphires and finally six emeralds that all come together to perfectly to highlight the incredible design of this brooch and make it look so fluid.

Antique Georgian turquoise and pearl ring made in the early 1800’s
Here is a truly amazing genuine antique Georgian turquoise and pearl ring that was made in the early 1800's and looks and feels amazing on the finger. Incredible to think that this ring is over 200 years old, it was hand made in 18 carat gold and set with a border of natural pearls surrounding a lock of plaited hair protected under a piece of carved rock crystal. Rock crystal was often used during this time thanks to it of course being clear, but also its hardness making it very durable for a ring. Set on each side is a row of natural turquoise that elevates this ring even further by adding some more colour to the ring as well as highlighting the exquisite hand engraving that goes down each side. Measuring 11.6mm by 19.1mm wide, this is a truly fabulous antique ring that will always be such a wonderful conversation starter as well as always getting the attention and admiration that it so rightly deserves.
