ART DECO JEWELLERY DREAM

ART DECO JEWELLERY DREAM

SOTHEBY’S NOBLE JEWELS GENEVA AUCTION

Magnificent and noble jewels is all I could dream of after trying on some of the exquisite lots from the recent Sotheby’s Geneva Auction! Epitomising the craftsmanship of early 20th century jewellery-making, these jewels were sold at Sotheby’s Auction on May 14th in Geneva. Read on to see my highlights!

Emerald is my birthstone, so I absolutely had to pay a visit to the auction preview to see the exquisite Art Deco necklace – it transforms into a bracelet – with 11 large sugarloaf emeralds for myself. Sold for $3,593,900, this significant row of emeralds has set a new benchmark for a necklace of this period!

Another significant lot form the auction confirmed the universal appeal of jewels with prestigious provenance – it was sold $137K above it’s high estimate. The diamond tiara of the last Prussian Princess Cecilie was a wedding gift from her Russian relatives sold at Sotheby’s Geneva auction for $434,346, and I can see why! This was one of my favourite lots due to my endless love for kokoshnik- style headdresses. You can see my legendary kokoshnik looks from London Fashion Week, Chatila Christmas Party and my talk at JCK Las Vegas here.

💎💎💎 How many facets are in round brilliant diamond? I’ll share answer & your profile in stories if you guess right! 👇 #diamondcuts The most sparkly alphabet letter is definitely the “C”! An indispensable tool for determining quality and beauty of a diamond #certifieddiamonds 1. Carat is a measuring unit to estimate gemstone’s weight. Diamonds of larger carat weight are rarer and therefore worth more! #carat⁣ ⁣ 2. Clarity determines the number and nature of inclusions and blemishes. The fewer there are, the more light will pass through diamond facets, making it more beautiful! #diamondclarity⁣ ⁣ 3. Colour determines the value based on tint. Totally colourless diamonds are noted with a D are the most valuable #diamondbeauty⁣ ⁣ 4. Cut allows diamond to unleash the light in every angle and facet. Here the cutter’s skill is of utmost importance #diamondcut ⁣ Head to the link in my profile to learn more about the history of diamonds! 👆 @LizaUrla #jewelleryface #gemologue #carnetjewellery #carnetbymichelleong #diamondrings⁣
