Jewels of Desire
Among all of the collecting categories, it is jewellery that most fully expresses an individual’s eye and taste. As you step into this realm of timeless elegance, be prepared to be captivated by exquisite designs and remarkable craftsmanship that have defined the world of jewellery. Leading our extraordinary lineup of rare diamonds, we are delighted to introduce Lot 43. This exceptional 6.11 carat diamond has been cherished within the same family for over 80 years, a living testament to enduring love and legacy. Certified by the GIA as the coveted Type IIa, this diamond is a member of an exclusive club, making up only a mere 1-2% of all natural diamonds. Known for their unparalleled chemical purity, Type IIa diamonds dazzle with their exceptional optical properties and are highly sought after by discerning collectors. In anticipation of the forthcoming holiday season, our collection also boasts a splendid array of collectable animal brooches. Esteemed jewellery houses, including Cartier, David Webb, and Tiffany & Co. have crafted imaginative animal-themed jewellery pieces over the decades, much sought after by both collectors and enthusiasts alike. Lot 70 serves as an excellent representation of the emblematic feline motif that Maison Cartier is celebrated for. Meanwhile, American jewellery designer David Webb's distinctive creations, known for their intricate craftsmanship and fondness for animal motifs, are exemplified by Lot 55 and 56, which stand as noteworthy examples of his whimsical and highly sought-after designs. Continuing with the enchanting theme of animal motifs in jewellery, Lot 109 presents a breathtaking reinterpretation inspired by an 1897 design by Louis Comfort Tiffany for Mrs. Alva Smith Vanderbilt. This contemporary masterpiece stands as a testament to the house's outstanding design and craftsmanship. If you are among those who ardently seek the opulence and distinctive allure of the Art Deco era, your quest finds its crowning jewel in Lot 100. This exquisite piece stands as a veritable embodiment of the era's extravagance and unparalleled beauty. Notably, it carries with it a touch of history and celebrity provenance, as another example of the bracelet once graced by the wrist of the acclaimed Polish painter, Tamara de Lempicka, adding an extra layer of allure and connection to the artistic elite of the time. It the spirit of the season, Lot 32 a much-loved family heirloom will be offered to auction with all proceeds of the sale going to support the wonderful work of the One Small Gift charity. It is with great pleasure I invite you, to join us at our viewings in Melbourne and Sydney, to experience this incredible collection firsthand. hamish sharma head of important jewels

His choice of materials and textures creates a beautiful balance, even in his most unconventional designs. His vision and skill earned his jewellery many devotees, among them Greta Garbo, Audrey Hepburn, Jacqueline Kennedy, Elizabeth Taylor, and Vogue editor Diana Vreeland, and his legacy continues today through Tiffany & Co. Within European folk tradition, the salamander is symbolic of immortality. Said to be born from flames and invulnerable to fire, salamanders have been hailed by occultists as the ‘elemental spirit of fire’. $25,000-35,000
