Although there is no hard evidence, the ring does show some unusual design features that may support this theory. The ring head itself from the black border up is unusually shallow and also the emerald is slightly lower than the border, this could make use as a button easier. This setting has also helped keep the emerald in good condition with only very minor wear.

A Private Collection of Jewellery by Andrew Grima Arguably one of the foremost post-war British jewellers, Andrew Grima’s jewellery is unmistakable both in terms of design, quality and originality. Despite training as an engineer, Grima founded the company in the early 1960s in London after returning from service with the Royal Engineers in Burma during World War II. He quickly became the society jeweller to royals, diplomats and celebrities alike, receiving a Royal warrant in 1966. Princess Margaret was a patron, as is Her Majesty The Queen, and over 100 pieces of Grima jewellery now reside in the royal collection; Jackie Onassis was another avid fan of his work. His pieces are striking for a number of reasons, the highly original designs have a particularly organic and abstract feel. He often worked with semi-precious stones and diamonds were only ever used as accents to enhance the natural form of a gemstone or texture of the metalwork. He was particularly drawn to unconventional or rough uncut stones, and despite this move away from the traditional fine jewellery gemstones, he was determined never to compromise on quality.

His clients played an integral role in the design of jewellery, along with his wife JoJo and daughter Francesca who now carry on the business; they worked hard to build a personal relationship with their clients, which often lasted for decades. Such was the case with the small collection of Grima Jewellery which features in this sale. After being wounded during active service in WWII, the current vendor’s father was flown to Durban for treatment, where he was gifted two rough garnets which he and his wife later had set by Andrew Grima. What followed is what the current vendor recalls as a ‘splendid, friendly relationship with Mr Grima and his wife,’ during which they returned to him for much of their jewellery. This collection perfectly highlights Andrew Grima’s quest for quality, the unusual and his love of texture and sculptural, tactile forms, and is something which Lyon & Turnbull’s jewellery department is very excited to include in our Select Jewellery & Watches Auction.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR BUYERS Historically many gemstones have been subjected to a variety of treatments to enhance their appearance. Certain enhancements, such as heating, are commonly used to improve colour or transparency in rubies and sapphires. Emeralds are also frequently treated, usually with oils or resin, for the same purpose. Other methods, including staining, dyeing, coating or irradiation, may have been used on other gemstones including Jade and associated hardstone that may have been bleached (usually in acid), polymer/resin filled or dyed, or a combination of any of these treatments. The international jewellery trade has generally accepted these methods. Heat enhancement of colour is usually permanent, however, in some cases; this may have an impact on the durability of the gemstone. Gemstones that have been oiled may require re-oiling after a number of years in order to retain their optimum appearance. It is, in suitable cases, Lyon & Turnbull’s policy to obtain gemmological reports from internationally recognised gemmological laboratories describing certain gemstones sold by Lyon & Turnbull. In the event that Lyon & Turnbull have been given, or have obtained, reports for any lot in the sale these reports will be mentioned in the catalogue description. However, it is not feasible for Lyon & Turnbull to obtain a gemmological report for each gemstone offered for sale by Lyon & Turnbull. If no report is published in the catalogue prospective buyers should assume that the gemstones may have been enhanced by some method. However, please note that there may not be consensus between different laboratories on the degrees or types of treatment for any particular gemstone. Prospective buyers should be aware that Lyon & Turnbull’s pre-sale estimates assume that gemstones may have been subjected to such treatments. ALL DIMENSIONS, WEIGHTS ARE APPROXIMATE. DIAMOND GRADING TERMS Where printed in the catalogue, estimated diamond grades for colour and clarity are intended as guides for prospective buyers. Lyon & Turnbull do not guarantee these estimated grades due to the limitations of mounts and settings. DIAMOND COLOUR

This royalty will be charged to the Buyer on the hammer price and in addition to the Buyer’s premium. It will not apply to works where the hammer price is less than €1,000 (euros). The charge for works of art sold at and above €1,000 (euros) and below €50,000 (euros) is 4%. For items selling above €50,000 (euros), charges are calculated on a sliding scale. All royalty charges are paid to the Design and Artists Copyright Society (‘DACS’) and no handling costs or additional fees are retained by the auctioneer. Resale royalties are not subject to VAT.

DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (1) whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective Buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. (2) Condition reports: Condition reports are provided on our website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavor to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or Lyon & Turnbull and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and you are strongly advised to examine any lot in which you are interested prior to the sale. Our condition reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. (3) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT.
