Pick of the Week Holiday Edition – Volume 8

Joden Girl

Baubles and Bling with Unbelievable Pricing

One of the most advantageous aspects of estate jewelry is the ability to purchase a desirable designer piece at a price that makes sense.  For more than fifty years, Joden Jewelers has worked tirelessly to curate a collection of antique and estate jewelry that is not only beautiful but also great value.  Quite often, we are able to acquire true couture jewels from iconic designers like Cartier, Tiffany, Van Cleef, and Raymond Yard.  We truly love bringing our customers the best of the best at an affordable price.

This reverse crystal brooch brings the acorn woodpecker to life.  With animated features, this charming feathered creature is showcased within the lofty branches of an oak tree.  Reverse crystal (Essex crystal) jewelry begins with a cabochon piece of rock quartz.  An image or picture is etched into the back side of the quartz and is then handpainted.  When viewed from the top, it appears to be three-dimensional. 

Created by Raymond Yard, this charming piece can be enjoyed as either a pin or a pendant.  My favorite detail of the brooch is the styling.  The nature vibe doesn’t stop with the reverse crystal, it continues into the frame.  Mr. Yard carved a 14-karat yellow gold branch to nestle the large oval showpiece upon.  The sculpted and lifelike feel of the branch sings in harmony with the scene painted within. 

Previously priced at $5,250.00, this enchanting piece is available now for just $4,475.00!  If this beautiful bird is singing your song, fly over to our site and make him yours today.
