P&V BY JOE Zuni Turquoise Petit Point Squash Blossom Necklace – SOLD

The Squash Blossom necklace motif was originally a Navajo tradition, brought over by the Spanish in the early 1800’s (originally with a Moorish “Evil Eye” as the symbol).   The Navajo acquired German silver and became masters of historic metalsmithing, and later transformed the pendant into a crescent called a “Naja”, a time-honored shape, usually adorning the necks of their horses.  The blossoms which cascade up the neck are an interpretation of Spanish-Mexican pomegranate blossoms.  Other native tribes began to make their own Squash Blossom necklaces at the turn of the 20th century, and this amazing example is Zuni.  Twelve turquoise petit point blossoms hang along the neck on a double strand of round silver beads, while a 4-inch (3.5-inch wide) petit point crescent pendant hangs at the base.  The necklace hangs a total 19 inches in length, and is bears the artist hallmark P.&V. BY JOE.  This awe-inspiring collectible vintage piece is priced at $1,200. SOLD

CLOTHING:

CHANEL 2006 Spring Collection Blue-Grey Shredded Tweed Jacket, Size 6 – SOLD

CHANEL 2008 Spring Collection Beige/Cream Woven Silk Houndstooth Skirt Suit, Size 6-8

Lady-like and in charge, this feminine skirt suit is also a a powerful fashion statement.  The densely woven silk has a cotton-like look and feel, but is much more impressive than that.  The 3/4-length sleeves add a vintage appeal, while the button front of the blazer has a faux double-breasted flap at the waist, bringing a bit of military inspiration to an otherwise soft silhouette.  The long pencil skirt is in perfect keeping with the jacket, but both would offer wonderful wardrobe options on their own as well.   Size 6-8 (French 40).  This fantastic skirt suit is priced at $1,000.

CHANEL 2000 Cruise Collection Color-Block Cotton/Silk Midi Skirt, Size 8

Not only is the cascading color-block (from beige to rose pink to strawberry red to tangerine) pleasant and playful, but the a-line circle brings happy shape from waist to ankle.  Fashion is meant to be fun and this skirt brings a smile to the face, and bit of joy to the party.  Size 8 (French 40).  Priced at $299.

ELIZABETH LOCKE 19K 16mm Hoop Earrings with Pink and Blue Intaglio Glass Enhancers  – SOLD-

ELIZABETH LOCKE 19K and Smokey Quartz Intaglio Ring, Size 5.75

For the bird-lover, this gorgeous smokey quartz intaglio-carved ring is unique to Elizabeth’s designs, as this piece is a carved stone, instead of the typical glass.  The 20mm quartz cabochon is carved with an eagle carrying an olive branch; a symbol of both power and peace.  The stone is set in a bezel of 19k hammered yellow gold with four granulated “Triads” even spaced throughout the frame.  With box, size 5.75.  This regal ring originally retailed for $4,625.  Our price is $2,500.

JEWELRY:

ZOE 18k and Rose Cut Diamond Infinity Ring Size 6.5

After years of learning the jewelry trade working at Barney’s, Zoe founder Tawnya decided to start her own business from the ground up in 2005. She began by selling one piece in order to fund the next until she secured an exclusive relationship with Barney’s back where she started.  Her designs are meant to reflect an romantic and organic aesthetic and are true modern heirlooms.  Twist carried her line for a limited time about 2 years ago, which is why this stunning ring is here in Portland.  A warm 18k yellow gold serves as the base for the infinity set raw diamonds set along the band.  Each diamond has its own depth of color, with most in a champagne tone with a few golden standout stones.  Each of the sixteen larger rose cut diamonds are surrounded by a frame of smaller diamonds in each corner to add even more shimmering delight.  An estimated total of 1.85 carats of diamonds are included in this amazing piece.  Size 6.5.  Sold with original Twist box.  Retailed for $7,500.  Priced at $3,800.
