$325 USDArtist Made Mid 20th Century Buckle or Lovelier, 'Ugly Bird'
Jewelry:Vintage:Belt Buckle:Lost-wax:Artisan:Handmade
This is the strangest piece of jewelry I think I have ever seen! To me it looks like a big ugly bird wearing a crown. If that is what it is, it's a great looking, ugly bird. I like how the artist made the beak and eyes and I think the eyelashes are cute. This piece of unusual jewelry was made with a technique called 'lost wax'. Some jewelery makers used an pre-made wax mold but the more accomplished ones made their own. I'm sure this 'ugly bird' was made in a hand made and designed wax mold. I ...
$85 USDCAMEO, Unusual Design, Black And Pale Green Enamel Over Silver
Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches:Cameo
I haven't seen a piece like this before and I think it is quite lovely. It seems to be an enamel over silver and mounted on a non precious metal mount. The silhouette of the woman is surrounded by black enamel. The silhouette or portrait of the cameo is a faint, pale blue/green thin enamel and the silver is seen in relief through the enamel and shows through completely in one section. The section that is exposed is the side of the face with some flowers and hair curls in relief. It is a petite ...
$145 USD Offers ConsideredAmita Japan Damascene Three Piece Set, Marked Sterling, Circa 1950-1960
Jewelry:Vintage:Silver, Sterling:Amita Japan, Damascene, Set
There's a dramatic look to this set...very sophisticated! The design is reminiscent of modernistic jewelry but in the same breath is current and up to date. Stunning silver on what looks to be black enamel. I think this black color was most likely achieved through oxidation of the metal. I'm not sure about that...take a close look at my scans and see what you think. The necklace consists of three center squares that measure about 3/4 inch square. These are flanked on each side by three smaller 1 ...
Jewelry:Antique:Cameo
This lovely hand carved Mediterranean orange to red coral cameo is set in a wonderful Mid 19th Century Victorian mount. The mount is reminiscent of the styles that were popular from 1830's until the early 1860's. The cameo, which is carved in high relief in full face is claw mounted on a disc which 'floats' on the ornate body of the brooch. Surrounding the cameo are yellow gold hand carved leaves and blossoms. The mounting itself is is ornately detailed and inset with the most delicate pieces of ...
$125 USDRetro WEISS Pin/Brooch And Earrings Set, Signed, Very 1950's-1960's
Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
Yikes,I have to admit that I sold this very set when it originally came out...circa the late 1950's or early 1960's! I was working part time at a department store (yes, there were still such things) while I was attending the university, before I got married. These are so NOW...to quote those much younger than I am. The colors are not only just perfect for the fall and winter months but they seem to be the current vogue. This set just sparkles with colored rheinstones in shades of brown and rust ...
$135 USDCocktail RING, Beautiful Mid-Century Design, 14K Gold Size 11
Jewelry:Vintage:Rings:Mid-century, Cocktail Ring
This ring is a more than ample size and then to top it off it is adjustable. I have never seen a 14K gold ring that is adjustable before. Usually adjustable rings are very inexpensive varieties and not of the quality that this one is. I don't know the kind of stone as I am not a gemologist. I do know that when I look at it with my "naked eye" it appears to be a bluish green but when I took the pictures they came out with a purple tone. You may know what the stone is just by this description. It ...
$175 USD ReducedREDUCED Petite And Beautiful, Coral Cameo In Art Nouveau 14K YG Mount, Ring Sz 4 1/2
Jewelry:Antique:Cameo
This sweet ring has the softest of coral hand carved cameo mounted in a delicate and swirling yellow gold. I have tested and weighed this ring. The weight is 4.20 grams and the gold mounting is 14K. Inside of the ring there is a slight impression of a mark that could be 14K but to my eye it says 14A. I'm sure the mark is worn and it should read 14K. I think the dainty cameo and the swirling mounting design add a lot to the rings value. It certainly has "eye appeal". The cameo measures 10mm by ...
$75 USD Offers ConsideredHandsome PAIR Steel Cut Shoe Buckles, Circa 1900
Jewelry:Antique:Costume:Shoe Buckles
I've had this pair of buckles for quite a few years. I decided when I purchased them that I would never have shoes I could wear them on so...I figured I'd make them into brooches...or belt buckles or something.? Well, as time has gone by they're still with me in the original state that I purchased them in. They are substantial buckles, probably made in France as most were, but they are unmarked. On the attachment shank of each buckle, where the mark would be, the "silvering" is worn off. Take a ...
$28 USDVintage Mid 20th Century Pin, Brooch In Shape Of An Owl, Modernist
Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
If you're an owl collector then this little pin is for you! It's an interesting design reminiscent of the mid-century Danish designs. It has no markings. It appears to be made of brass and silver and measures 2" long by 1" wide.
$85 USDSTUNNING Rock Crystal Aqua Graduated Beads Strung On Chain
Jewelry:Vintage:Necklaces
A glorious 17 inches long this beautiful, sparkling necklace will compliment any "ensemble", vintage or modern. This necklace is, however, vintage and dates from about the 1920's. I believe it to be the beads to be Czechoslovakian and strung on chain that is either white gold filled or sterling. I say this because the clasp is clearly marked 14K G.F. and I would assume the chain to be of similar material. The largest of the sparkling beads is 1/2 inch and the smallest aqua bead is a petite 3/8 ...
$115 USD ReducedREDUCED Salmon Coral Cameo Ring Set In Yellow Gold Mounting, Size 4 1/2
Jewelry:Antique:Cameo:Coral Cameo Ring
Another delicate and petite ring from my treasure chest! I only wish my fingers were small enough to wear a size 4 1/2! Isn't this the prettiest shade of coral? I love the deep salmon or flamingo shade of pink and it's so flattering to the skin. This ring has been tested and weighed. The gold mounting is 14K and the total ring weighs 2.76 grams. There is no karat mark on the ring but I can see on the shank a line where the ring has been sized so I think the gold mark was taken off through that ...
$115 USD ReducedREDUCED Tiny Size 2 1/2 Lovely Coral Cameo Ring in 14K Yellow Gold Mounting
Jewelry:Antique:Cameo:Coral Cameo Ring
This ring either previously belonged to a VERY tiny woman or a young girl. The size is a 2 1/2 as measured on my old ring sizer. It's petite but the detail in the hand carving is just exquisite and is beautifully shown off by the gold mount. The oval mount is accented with leaves, that appear to be hand hammered, on either side of the cameo which is held in place by both a bezel and prongs. The dainty size of the cameo is just 12mm in length and 6mm wide. The mounting is not marked but it tests ...
$225 USDUnusual Modernist Studio Made Belt Buckle, Mid-Century
Jewelry:Vintage:Belt Buckle:Lost-wax:Artisan:Handmade
Isn't this "kitchy"!! I purchased this a couple of years ago from the proverbial 'little old lady'. Actually she was little and definitely old. Anyone older than I am is pretty old! She mentioned the name of the artist who made this mid century piece but, because I was going to keep it and not sell it, I promptly forgot the artisan's name. It isn't signed or marked in any way. I know it is silver and I presume that it is sterling and it was made with the 'lost wax' technique of casting metal. ...
$125 USDSweet CAMEO Bracelet, Seven Delicate Cameo's With Gold Tone Links
Jewelry:Antique:Cameo
There are seven cameo's on this bracelet all of them individually carved and mounted with gold toned metal. Each cameo measures 3/4"x1/2" and the total bracelet is 6.5" long by 3/4" wide and all are different. The bracelet is very light in weight and measures 25grams. I suspect that this was a piece of jewelry that machine made, either in the late 18th century or the early 19th century. I am sure it is machine made. Each cameo is carved by hand but in without expert detail. The bracelet bears no ...
SOLDSOLD DECO Styling In A Stunning McClelland Barclay Brooch, Pin
Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
This designer only designed costume jewelry from 1935 until he was killed in World War II in 1943. He was active as a poster artist for the War Department until his untimely death. In this beautiful example of his fine work you can see the influence of the Deco style. Swirling plumes or leaves in gold tone plate on Rhodium are accented by equally swirling pave mounted rhinestones. The Rhodium seems to have been given an 'antiqued' gold tone which is much softer to the eye. This stunningly ...
SOLDSOLD CHARM Bracelet, 1960's Gold Filled and 14K Gold, "Charming"
Jewelry:Vintage:Bracelets:Charm, Gold, Gold Filled
Charm bracelets are so often filled with memories! Charms are collected from places traveled or from special occasions and often given as gifts. I am sorry this bracelet has gotten out of the hands of the original owner because it has charms that must have had special meaning. There are six charms on a gold filled chain that measures 7.25" long. Two of the charms are marked 14K, the disc with the building on it and the little shell. The disc with the building on it is quite soft and has been ...| Items 1 - 16 of 16 | Page 1 of 1 |
