Couldn’t resist one more Schlumberger - because we are obsessed. 🐚 This is one of our favorite summer jewels. The seashell on the sapphire seashore bracelet is from the @christiesjewels sale of Peggy Rockefeller’s collection. The bracelet was made in 1957 - one year after the French designer joined #Tiffany ✨ #Schlumberger #jeanschlumberger #summerjewelry
If you love Schlumberger tune in to @gemxclub today at noon for a talk from @archivistsdelight aka #Tiffany archivist Annamarie Sandecki who is going to review the designer’s work and one of his most celebrated patrons #BunnyMellon. 💗 Pregame the chat by clicking the link in bio and reading a story from The Adventurine archives about the exhibit Drawn to Beauty: The Life and Atelier of Jean Schlumberger. 📸 Bunny Mellon’s Jasmine necklace by #JeanSchlumberger 💎
A New York City jewelry retail institution, @alavieillerussie was founded in Kiev in 1851 and has experienced many world crises over the years as it relocated to Paris and finally New York City in 1941. ✨ Peter Schaffer, one of the principals of the firm, shares his unique historical perspective and his experience remaining in NYC during the pandemic. 📸 The Crown of Thorns brooch #JeanSchlumberger made for #MillicentRogers in 1947. It is one of the museum quality pieces in the ALVR collection today. *Photographed pre-covid at the boutique. #alvr #alavieillerussie #schlumberger
This time last year at #Cannes - Italian actress, Monica Bellucci, wore this Cartier crocodile necklace that was a style call-back to 2006 when she wore María Félix’s famous Cartier double crocodile necklace.🐊 Get the story on the red carpet looks and the original daring design the French firm made for the legendary Mexican film star in 1975. ✨ #mariafelix #monicabellucci #cartier
Six years ago, I got a dream assignment to work with the #Bulgari Heritage department on a series of books about the Italian firm’s icons. I shared some highlights of the experience with @sothebysjewels in a video that also covers Bulgari treasure in their online sale ‘The Bold Standard.’ 🎥 Head to the link in bio to see it and learn about the early Serpentis that *did not* have snake heads like these. Also browse the auction that ends today. 🐍 This photo was taken in Rome last summer at the exhibition Bvlgari: The Story, The Dream. ✨ #Bvlgari #serpenti
The Bold Standard, @sothebysjewels current online sale includes this 1972 necklace, modeled by Karlie Kloss in Vogue (2010). It is set with an 18th century coin depicting Ferdinand, the King of Sicily. The jewel and photo were in my book Bulgari: #Monete Collection published by Assouline. Head to the link in bio for @sothebys 5-minute video where I contributed a few thoughts on the Monete and Serpenti collections and the La Dolce Vita days in Rome. ✨
When you think of stars wearing their own jewels, as opposed to borrowed finery, on the red carpet at Cannes, you probably envision mid-20th century icons like Elizabeth Taylor or Sofia Loren. Well, the fact is Kate Moss wore her own diamond jewels when she hit the carpet in the South of France in 1997, perhaps in 1998 and definitely in 2001. ✨ Head to the link in bio for the story. 📸 These early 19th century earrings from @leightonjewels are similar in style to a pair #KateMoss wore in #1997 at #Cannes 💎 #vintage #diamondearrings
For emerald month - one of our favorites of all time - this #emerald #collage box by #Belperron from the collection of @patsaling ✨
