We see many one-off fine pieces of jewellery but a
single-owner collection that’s just emerged has taken our breath away.
It’s awash with countless dazzling diamonds,
emeralds to make you green with envy and sensational sapphires. It consists of
an emerald pendant and ring and a sapphire pendant and ring but their main
feature stones are far from ordinary. If you like big, bold and beautiful,
you’ll love these. Together, the four pieces are worth many thousands of
pounds.
Its owner wisely invested her money in timeless
vintage, high-quality jewellery that would not look out of place adorning a
celebrity on the red carpet in Hollywood.

All the pieces are exceptional but Hansons’ head
of jewellery Helen Smith is particularly entranced by an eye-catching Belle
Epoque-style sapphire, diamond and platinum pendant.
The pendant displays sweeping swags and swirls set
with small diamonds and tulip-shaped drops. But the star of the show is a 5.13
carat cushion-cut sapphire.
They will be sold in our October Fine Jewellery
Auction so nudge your partner into action if you’d like to find something like
this under your Christmas tree. If you have any jewels or watches to be valued,
