LONDON.- An array of fine diamond jewellery will go under the hammer as part of Roseberys 9-10 December Fine Art auction. Perfect for that unique last minute present a selection of ladies brooches, watches and single and multiple stone rings are available to add a touch of sparkle to Christmas morning.
One of the most popular and enduring periods of jewellery design Art Deco pieces capture the vibrancy and playfulness of an era on the cusp of social and economic turbulence. Throughout the art deco period jewellery design continued to be both innovative and glamourous, encompassing geometric forms and bold colours that influenced designers throughout the 1940s and 50s, to the present day. Diamonds were extremely popular and the double clip brooch being sold by Roseberys is a stunning example of the fine artistry that brings life and movement to art deco jewellery.
Being sold alongside the brooch is an impressive 1950s platinum and diamond set ladies cocktail watch by the iconic Swiss watchmaker, Jaeger LeCoultre. The brand synonymous with luxury are known for pioneering the emergence of ladies wristwatches during the early 19th century, bringing together the Jaeger LeCoultre calibre with embellishments from the finest engravers, enamellers and gem-setters.
This beautiful example of fine craftsmanship comprises a circular face and bracelet strap set with brilliant cut diamonds and is estimated to sell for £3,000 5,000. [Lot 206]
