Jewels and Gems

On Tuesday March 17th we will be holding a sale
of Jewellery and Watches, starting at 12 noon.
It will be followed by the General sale.

Amongst the jewels on display will be lot 50, a stunning diamond solitaire ring, 5.15ct approx. flanked by diamond shoulders. Estimate: £30,000 - £40,000.
There is a great deal of excitement on the watch front too, with an unusual ladies circa 1960s 18ct gold Rolex 'Precision' dress ring, on offer in lot 34. Estimate £200 - £300.
The catalogue is online.

On Wednesday March 18th we will be holding a sale
of Historical Documents and Ephemera, starting at 1pm.

And if it's historical gems you're after, this sale has an amazing selection of fascinating items; from the Royal Warrant appointing Winston Churchill as Lord of the Admiralty (lot 76, estimate £2,000 - £4,000) to an important letter from Gandhi to his son Harilal (lot 369, estimate £2,000 - £3,000). And there is plenty more in the catalogue.

On Tuesday this week, we sold a rare 1st period Worcester 18th Century porcelain mug, with printed black and white transfer decoration, depicting Oriental figures. It came from a house clearance in Kew and achieved £4,800 inc buyers premium. 

Another interesting lot was a garage find; a 1934 pre-series Morris 8 saloon, burgundy/black, sold together with various spares. Worth looking in the garage as it sold for £2,040 inc buyers premium.
