14K VICTORIAN BROOCH WITH ENAMELING, DIAMONDS AND PEARLS

Terrific, large  Victorian Brooch, circa about 1880.   Lovely, detailed retro elements extending from the frame.  This brooch is a bit of  a mystery.   It appears that the whole may have grown from a simple locket, the oval in the center, with the beautiful enameled star   overlaid with another star burst set with diamonds and pearls appears to be the original piece.  It has a twist frame closely around it and is recessed within a knife-edge frame, which has another twist frame against  its base, then a nice, smooth, flat frame from which flows the fancy fin-like and scroll parts.  The straight, short, flat pieces (top and bottom) screw into the  bottom and provide permanent sturdiness to the pretty center locket.  Later a circa 1910 latching c clasp was added and also a hook for hanging an additional piece, probably a ladies lapel watch.  From the back, one sees the rough edges of the original locket.  Antique estate jewelry in excellent condition.  Estimated retail value $1500+.

SPECIAL BUY FOR YOU ~ DESIGNER LAPIS & STERLING RING

Designed & executed by Daniel Zender, a New Mexico native, the lovely bright blue Lapis is hand set in Sterling (note the  detail, vertical 'cuts' on the frame at the 5PM and 11 AM positions).  The heavy shank has been left unclosed  underneath to allow easy adjustment to size; the end of the shank  slides neatly through a tunnel.  The Lapis is raised rather than flat against the finger, perfect for any finger.  The Lapis is approximately 3/4 inch x 1/2 inch.   Reference is made to this artist on elderstonewerks and his own website, which indicate similar design earrings sell for $295 and rings  for slightly less.  New, contemporary jewelry.  A great buy on quality jewelry.

Jewelry  indicating an "appraisal range" or "retail range" or "approximate retail value" are the opinions of the owner of this website.  If you obtain a written Replacement Appraisal from a reputable appraiser, it should be within the "Retail Range".

Retail and/or Replacement appraisals vary as much as -25% to +25% from one appraiser to another. . Factors affecting this include geographical location, high/low rent districts, & price range. I have chosen a medium price range for ease of comparison. The selling prices are, in almost every case, well below the appraisal range. If the selling price approaches the appraisal price, there may be unusual factors guiding the pricing. Please inquire if you wish further information on the pricing structure or a guarantee of an appraisal amount. If you obtain an independent written  Retail Replacement Appraisal from a reputable appraiser it should be within the "Retail Range".

*Jewelry marked "Master Gemologist" indicates that appraisal was done by a person who been trained to the highest standards, as determined by the American Society of Appraisers.  A Master Gemologist's training is superior to a Gemologist, Graduate Gemologist, or Certified Gemologist, and she is prepared to back up her appraisal with facts based on her research, and tests done with gemological equipment.  A written copy of appraisals already  done by  the Master Gemologist I use is available for a small additional fee and does not delay shipping of the jewelry. 

A Master Gemologist appraisal  can be obtained on ANY piece of jewelry.  The delay in shipping the jewelry could be 5-10 days.
