JEWELRY:

MICHAEL GOOD 18k Gold Earrings and Necklace

Michael Good started his jewelry career oddly enough, as an apprentice for a sculptor in NYC during the 1970’s.  He uses these same techniques to make his architectural wearable pieces of art as well as sculptures for the home and garden.  He works with a technique that he created called “Anticlastic Raising”.  He forms sheet metal around a snake like stake and hammers it into the intended design.  This allows him to create lightweight and fluid pieces that are all one of a kind.  Almost a mix between the liquid and solid forms of metal.  

(SOLD SEPARATELY, SEE INDIVIDUAL DESCRIPTIONS)

MICHAEL GOOD 18k Necklace

This solid 18k yellow gold curled disc pendant will float along your neckline.  Tie on a black leather rope, you can choose where this piece lays, high, low or right in between.  This pendant started as a flat round disc with one brushed side and one highly polished side.  Good then formed it to create a curling form that is truly unique.  We love that you can see both the shining and the somewhat rougher crushed side, it creates an even more organic nature to this pendant.  Pendant measures 2″ wide and 1 1/2″ tall and weighs almost 18 grams in solid 18k gold.  Leather cord can be worn with a maximum length of 16″.  Retailed for approximately $2,000.  Priced at $899.

MICHAEL GOOD 18k Calla Lily Inspired Earrings  –  SOLD

The second piece we have from Michael Good are these dramatic long earrings in 18k yellow gold.  Crafted in Good’s signature 1/2 brushed and 1/2 polished gold, these earrings that resemble an elongated calla lily flower will be a signature statement for you.  The curved shape of these earrings will follow the frame of ones jawline as is flows down the side of the face.  Measuring 4″ in total length and weighing 13.4 grams of 18k gold, these are earrings worth saving for special occasions.  Retailed approximately $1,500.  Priced at $799.  SOLD

GEORG JENSEN 18k and Diamond 4 Piece “Fusion” Ring Set SIZE 8

Founded in Denmark in 1904, Georg Jensen’s created a high end jewelry company that has placed his name at the top of Scandinavian jewelers.  His luxurious designs are all unique, often castings of organic flora or can be modern imaginings of what jewelry can and should be; art to adorn oneself in.  Today his company is a collaboration of many artists that continue this aesthetic and are always releasing innovative designs.  This 4 piece ring set was first imagined by one of the company’s most successful artists, Nina Koppelis, in 1987.  She created this ring that is made of 18k white and yellow gold bands that fit together seamlessly in a perfect little puzzle.  Clients today can pick and choose how many bands and colors of gold and diamonds they want to stack, since each ring is sold separately.  The stack we have today features two yellow gold bands that create the edges and two white gold bands that rest in the middle, one with diamonds sprinkled within.  You can wear the ring with all four, just one white gold center, both white gold bands, both yellow gold bands, or just one at a time; so many options.  Size 8.  The full set retails for $4,450.  Due to some scratches that are more pronounced in photos than real life, this piece is priced at less than 1/2 of retail, $2000.  

 

GEORG JENSEN 18k White and Yellow Gold “Magic” Two Piece Ring Set SIZE 7 – SOLD

This ring set was designed by another artist with Georg Jensen’s umbrella, Regitze Overgaard, who designs pieces that she aims to be as simple as possible while flowing with the natural curve and movement of the body.  The Magic collection features fluid bands of gold that tapers at points for a naturally flowing aesthetic.  The 18k white gold outer band curves in a spiral and can be worn alone, or you can slide the simple yellow gold band inside to complete the look.  Size 7.  Both pieces retail for a total of $1,750.  Priced here at $899.  SOLD

SHOES:

CHANEL ‘Bordeaux’ Color-Block Patent Pumps, Size 8

Rich in color, lux in shine, and striking with its architectural heel, these powerful pumps are fiercely feminine and perfect for anything from corporate suiting to a sexy dinner date.  The navy cap toe, curved ridged 5-inch heel, and slight (half inch) platform darkly compliment the deep burgundy body, and help create a unique pop of color, without losing neutrality.  Fitting like a size 8 (French 39).  Like new, with box and dust bag.  Originally retailing for $695, our price is $299.  

CHANEL Royal Blue and Black Cap Toe Ballet Flats, Size 8.5

A classic design, and the most popular of shoes styles, the leather cap toe ballet flat is a must-have for the Chanel lover.  This pair is a fun color-block of royal navy blue meeting the black cap toe.  A matching blue leather bow sits just across the seam from the embossed stitched trademark emblem on the toe, for the finishing branded touches.  These flats are fitting like an 8.5, though they are sized a French 40.  In wonderful condition, and a fantastic shoe year-round.  These pretty flats are priced at $349.

JEWELRY:

CHANEL 2014 Paris-Dallas Collection Brooch and Earrings (SOLD SEPARATELY)

Both Paris and Dallas are known for their fashionable women, however, both come from opposite ends of the design world.  The juxtaposition of Parisian elegance to Western-influenced opulence is not only unique, but is also an unexpected marriage that makes sense.  Below we have two pieces from this extraordinary collection, each sold separately.

CHANEL 2014 Paris-Dallas Collection Brooch – SOLD

This gorgeous brooch is varnished in a light gold, for easy paring with any tone of jewelry you may wish to wear it with.  The small pear-shaped cabochons of carnelian red enamel have a few garnet-colored spaces throughout.  The trademark CCs are connected by two triangles of speckled turquoise enamel.  Size 55mm x 40mm.  Priced at $349. SOLD

CHANEL 2014 Paris-Dallas Collection Pearl Drop Earrings – SOLD

A matching pair to the brooch above, these exquisite earrings are made even more lovely by a white drop pearl dangling.  A great accessory for the holidays, but also fun fashion for the summer wedding season too.  Size 35mm in length from top of post to the tip of the faux pearl, and 21mm wide.  Priced at $399. SOLD

DAVID YURMAN Sterling ‘5mm Classic Cable Cuff’ with Prasiolite and Diamonds – SOLD

A fantastic stacker for the Yurman collector, or a great piece on its own, this 5mm classic cable cuff is book-ended with faceted pale green prasiolite (green amethyst) tips surrounded by pavé diamonds.  This piece measures 6.75 inches in inner circumference.  This simple yet stunning bangle retailed for $625, our price is $379. SOLD

JUDE FRANCES 18K Yellow Gold, Pavè Diamond, and Moonstone Ring, Size 6.25

Delicately regal, and mystically etheric, the square-cut cabochon moonstone is surrounded by a bezel of pavè diamonds, fashioned into a quatrefoil design along the sides, while diamonds continue to cascade down the sides of the band.  Size 6.25.  This beautiful ring originally retailed for $1,770, our price is $899.  

14K YELLOW GOLD and TURQUOISE Necklace

Gold and turquoise is a crave-able combination, and one we don’t see as often as we’d like.  This piece is particularly stunning with its 10.25ct pear-shaped cabochon-cut turquoise pendant (estimated size 18.40 x 13.30 x 6.21 mm).  The bright turquoise blue shines brilliantly against the 14k yellow gold ridged rope-trimmed bezel, and is completed by an 18.5-inch cable-link 14k chain.  With appraisal, this gorgeous necklace is valued at $2,345, our price is $1,100.

MONICA RICH KOSANN 18K Rock Crystal ‘Rectangular Key Necklace’ – SOLD

Originally a fine art portrait photographer, Monica Rich Kosann has elegantly transferred her photographic eye to jewelry, with the intention to create heirloom-inspired pieces to last a lifetime.  Monica’s essential question before creating any piece is, “Is the style both contemporary and timeless… can a woman treasure it in 20 years as much as she does today?”*  Most decidedly, the answer is Yes.  This simple yet stunning necklace is an elegant statement.  The 32-inch 18K yellow gold chain leads to her signature “Rectangular Key” pendant, filled with a large faceted rock crystal (29mm x 21mm), and set with a bezel holding three round brilliant-cut diamonds on either side, with a single sapphire cabochon on the top.  A piece to elevate any outfit.  This lovely necklace originally retailed approximately $4,400, our price is $2,200. SOLD
