Taste of the sea, taste of jewels. Artcurial, the French auction house, is organizing a sale of fine jewelery for 18 and 19 July, in Monte-Carlo, as befits the prestigious location. The auction will be held at the Hôtel Hermitage and involves the sale of about 800 pieces, including vintage and modern, of prestigious Maison with Harry Winston, Van Cleef & Arpels, Lalique. But also Hermès, because the sale also includes some bags of the Parisian brand and some watches, selected by the founder of Colette, Sarah Andelman, and photographed by Koto Bolofo, who set some of the most prestigious jewels in an unusual context of vegetables, mushrooms, berries.
The most precious piece is, perhaps, a rivière necklace by Harry Winston, with emeralds, diamonds, on platinum and 18-karat gold, circa 1985-1990, accompanied by a certificate of SSEF certifying the origin of Colombia of emeralds. A platinum ring of Boucheron should also arouse interest, with a diamond of over 11 carats, round cut. And always in the genre, in the catalog also appears a ring with emerald cut diamond of 7 carats, color D, good overall quality.
