Detailed metalwork and delicate design were the earmarks of the Edwardian era. Exquisite lace-like 14-karat white gold combines beautifully with a singular piece of rock crystal quartz. Utterly feminine, the romantic style of the early 1900’s whispers softly of grace and beauty.

Carved and frosted, an oblong piece of rock crystal sits center stage in this alluring enchantress. Ensconced within a frame of coiled wires and beaded edges, this quartz has one diamond in the middle. A single-cut with a mere seventeen facets, this diamond weighs just .03 carat. Small but mighty, it twinkles and shine with every turn of the wrist.

Ten sculpted links create the remainder of the bracelet. Open in the center, each link is just like the one before. It’s as light as a feather; barely perceptible on the arm. Authentic and original, this bracelet is a true piece of antique jewelry. Impeccable condition and irresistible charm combine in perfect harmony. Priced at just $1,275.00, this bracelet is available now. Stop by and check it out for yourself!

Pick of the Week – Volume 84

With the gold market climbing to higher heights every day, it seems crazy to drop prices, right? But that’s exactly what we’re doing with our featured Pick of the Week pieces, like this slide bracelet. Victorian elegance at its finest, this beauty combines natural color with the luxury of silken gold mesh. Thousands of tiny gold links have been painstakingly woven together to create a wonderfully smooth piece of luxurious metal.

Crafted from 15-karat yellow gold, this bracelet is an example of engineering genius. One end of the mesh is enclosed within a decorative slide and the other end is capped in a complementary fashion. There is no clasp, it simply slides open and closed. With a fully open size of eight inches, it can be adjusted to fit a wide variety of wrist sizes. The slide itself features a hand-engraved double halo. The center of the slide is raised with a 12.5 mm coral bead on top. Showcasing a lovely orange-pink hue, this round coral adds a lovely pop of color. Six tiny rose cut diamonds flank the center and offer the tiniest hint of sparkle with a combined weight of just .05 carat.

Finishing with a flourish, the opposite end of the golden bracelet concludes with a shapely cap. Mimicking the look of the center, the cap also features a smaller coral bead. The quality of the bracelet can be both seen and felt… it’s the kind of craftsmanship that is rarely found in 2025. If you’ve been watching the stock market, I’m sure you’ve seen the price of gold climbing. It is now ten times more than when I first started my career in jewelry. Ten times. It’s astonishing, really. As I said at the beginning, you would think that our prices would be going up. However, we are continuing to lower them any time we can. Previously listed for $7,650, we are now offering the bracelet for just $6,250.00… a savings of $1,400.00. Hop on over to our site for additional photos and details.

Baubles, Bling and the Latest Things

On a scale of my most to least favorite types of jewelry, bracelets come in near or at the bottom. I like to look at them, and I want to wear them – but somehow, they end up laying in a puddle on my desk before I’ve finished my first cup of tea.

I used to think it was because I have a small wrist. I wear a six-inch bracelet as opposed to the standard seven-inch length. But, with an in-house bench jeweler – I could easily have a bracelet adjusted to fit. I also discovered that there are a lot of custom-sized (both shorter and longer) bracelets in antique jewelry. So, it would seem that the wrist size was just a cop out. In my heart of hearts, I’m really a ring and earring girl.

Recently, we acquired a really lovely piece that has me giving bracelets a second look. Made entirely of 18-karat, this beauty was made in the late 1800’s, near the turn of the century. There are seventeen individual links… nine of them feature two interlocking whiplash lines with a small cornflower blue sapphire set in the center. Each bright blue gem is set within a smooth-edged bezel – combined these nine stones have a total weight of .75 carat.

Alternating with those links are eight small floral blossoms. Three-dimensional and lifelike, each tiny flower has five petals. Marking the center of each one is a small natural pearl. It’s a Victorian vibe with hints of Art Nouveau – a truly glorious combination. It measures a generous 7.5 inches with a cleverly hidden clasp. For a smaller size wrist, it could be adjusted. Super sweet and in superb condition, this bracelet is on our site for just $2,350.00.

At the end of the day, I’m still a ring and earring girl. I can appreciate a great bracelet and might even take one for a spin now and again. This beauty deserves full-time love and appreciation. If you’re a true bracelet lover, hop on over to our site and make this one yours.
