As part of the jewelry auction, a selection of rare and precious stones is proposed, together with pieces signed by great Maison of Place Vendôme and other designers. For example, a Jean Fouquet necklace in aquamarine, rock crystal, platinum and white gold, a Boucheron corsage clip in gold and diamonds, a ring by René Boivin, a Cartier corsage clip from 1930 with emeralds, diamonds, sapphires and rubies.
Given the situation, Monaco and the Hotel Hermitage organized themselves with all the necessary security measures.

Jewels in Monte-Carlo with Artcurial




Artcurial jewels and diamonds july auction at the Hôtel Hermitage in Monte-Carlo ♦ ︎

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.

Buccellati at top in Monte Carlo

It’s scheduled in Monaco the first auction 2017 by Artcurial dedicated to jewels. As always it is organized at the Yacht Club de Monte-Carlo, January 19 to 21 and is dedicated to jewelry and watches. Among the items for sale are not lacking the jewels of the big names, such as Boucheron, Bulgari, Cartier, Chopard, Chaumet, Buccellati and Van Cleef & Arpels. Among the most remarkable pieces there are also jewelry made of gold and diamonds signed Suzanne Belperron, or a set of different jewelry including a yellow gold ring with an emerald-cut diamond, 15,40 carats by Buccellati. It is the top rod piece, with a evaluation of 240 to 260,000 euros: belonged to an unspecified royal family, which obviously needs to accomplish. Soon after, always in the estimates, is in the catalog a bracelet-watch in platinum and white gold with diamonds by Cartier. Quite impressive, it has a rating of 120-150.00 euros. Federico Graglia

In Monaco an auction with Belperron & c

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.

7 incredible jewelry

Every so often you should take a few minutes to observe the best there is: we chose these seven exceptional jewelry, all sold by Artcurial, because they are a good example of what can become a jewel. That is a masterpiece of technique, composition, imagination. Are all examples different from each other, precisely because some enhance the color of a stone, others focus on the difficult art of representing objects or animals, some are a flight of creativity abstract. The seven jewels that we have chosen have also been made at different times in the history of jewelry, and summarize, therefore, also fashions and styles, but also the history of costume and art, which are the main cultural elements which are reflected in the jewelry. Sure, they are pieces of particular importance and only a few can afford to own them, even fewer women have the opportunity (and a little ‘courage) to wear them. Look at them well. Giulia Netrese
