I listen to the radio a bunch, usually talk radio. I listening one day and they had an ad about some fine jewelry that Shreve & Co had bought from different estates. I decided to check it out since I was down in the Union Square area. Glad I did, it was very impressive. The cool thing was how I was treated there. They knew that I was only looking but I was still treated with respect with the salespeople answering all of questions.
The first three are Tiffany:
These next five are from Cartier:

Beautiful pieces, but way out of my league.

Now those are some serious jewels!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining the Top of the World Style Linkup party. Wow. These pieces are so cool!
ReplyDeleteBling indeed. I love me some bling, just ask my husband, but it is usually in the form of a lesser valued form. However, these pieces are stunningly beautiful. thanks for linking up with #TuneInThursday today!
ReplyDeleteIt would be awesome to see these pieces in the real. They look so beautiful. I love all sorts of bling, like if it glitters, it must be good.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing over at the weekend blog hop
Thank you for sharing the pictures with us. I am especially crazy for the Tiffany pendant (do you know what year that is from, I'm guessing 1910-1915ish), the Webb brooch (wow!), and the stunning Paul Flato necklace. You are lucky to see his work in person, I don't think it's all that common. Great post.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm so glad you took us all along with you on your little trip! These pieces are just incredible! I've chosen your post as my feature next week, too! #FridayFrivolity
