Great selection of Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Arts & Crafts, &
Victorian jewelry for sale at Fordham and Nelson. A sampling:
An interesting pair of Arts & Crafts-style earrings. These
earrings are sterling and have a center cabochon of carnelian set
between two "wings". Dangling from the carnelian are 3 spiral
columns ending in blister pearls. The earrings are clip back and
are 2" long. The earrings are marked "925 (triangle) 3 4".
Very interesting earrings. Price: $115 + shipping
A lovely and small oval pin. There is a green and brown agate set
in a gold setting. The pin is unmarked, so I don't know if this is
real gold, but it has the look and feel of either gold or
gold-filled. The pin is just under 1" in diameter and has an
old-style "c" clasp. Nice little pin. Price: $45 + shipping
A very nice, small pin of 3 stylized flowers, sterling, with
pear-cut faceted hematites. The back is stamped "sterling" and an
unreadable mark. The pin is a little more than 1 1/2" ling. The
hematites really glow. Price: $45 + shipping
Marcel Boucher, famed and highly collectible costume jewelry maker,
produced lovely jewelry in Mexico, probably in the 30's. This pin
is a stylized peacock with a long neck and swirling tail. He is 3
1/2" long. The bird is marked "Parisina Sterling Mexico".
Great design! Price: $125 + shipping
Large hand-wrought sterling pin, marked "Heilig Sterling" on the
back. The pin is of two flowers, one smaller and one larger, and
leaves and twining stems. All hand made. The pin is 4" long, very
substantial and nice work. Price: $95 + shipping
A wonderfully hand wrought necklace made up of squares of hammered
silver linked together. The only mark is "835". Nicely hand
wrought and substantial. 16" long, 8" doubled. Price: $65 +
shipping
An incredible necklace! Egyptian Revival-style necklace on long
chain. The pendant shows an Art Deco-style eagle rust-colored
glass scarab above it. Hanging from the pendant are two
cone-shaped metal objects and a green glass bead. The scarab and
the work above the eagle have a nice green patina applied. The
chain is very long, 15" doubled and has green glass beads
throughout. Most of the beads are fairly worn, but still workable.
The chain has had wear so the color is not uniform. The pendant is
in pristine condition and is stamped "France" on the back. The
pendant is 3 1/2" long. A very unique and very old piece in good
condition. Price: $175 + shipping
Nice, small Arts and Crafts-style pin. The silver-toned metal
entwines a glass stone, round, that is imitating lapis. The clasp
on the back is an old-style "c" clasp. The pin is a little more
than 1 1/4" in diameter. Very sweet pin. Price: $22 + shipping
Wonderfully crafted art nouveau pin in a silver metal (unmarked,
but polished up very nicely with my silver cloth, think it's either
pewter or silver). The pin shows a lovely young woman with flowing
hair. There is a slight blue enamel wash in the recesses of the
pin. The pin measures 1 1/4" inches and also has a loop on the
back so it can be used as a pendant. Really a nice period pin,
very substantial. Price: $85 + shipping
