You want to combine the sea, the luxury and the thrill of an auction of jewelry? Write down on your schedule this date: 16-19 July. In the Principality of Monaco, under the insignia of Artcurial, at the Hotel Hermitage is scheduled for a summer marathon that includes the sale of 563 pieces. There’s something for all tastes, from a auction value of one thousand euro (for a brooch with diamonds), up to rise to much higher estimates. And it is understandable why: next to interesting pieces, but anonymous, there are charm bracelets, rings and necklaces of the largest names in jewelery from Bulgari to Van Cleef & Arpels, Cartier to Boucheron. But don’t less the signatures of the great designers, as in the case of Suzanne Belperron, which we have chosen to symbolize the event, or Jean Vendôme or French sculptors Arman and Cesar. The pieces in auction go from a jewelry of the early twentieth century to contemporary pieces, with an (obvious) prevalence of the French Maison. The pieces, on tan skin, should stand out very well.
