Magnificent Jewels & Jadeite at Sotheby’s – Hong Kong

Sotheby’s – Hong Kong – October 6th: Magnificent Jewels and Jadeite

I am so excited – I just flipped through the Sotheby’s catalog for this event – WOW! I am seriously speechless – and you know how rarely that happens.

Yes – like every Magnificent Jewels auction there are some diamond stunners – but for me, the addition of Jadeite is what made me dig through all 300+ lots to see these translucent glowing beauties!

So…I chose a few beauties just for you! know the drill…click the photo for a larger image…or click through and thumb through the catalog.

Starting with my fav – bangles to stack in colors ranging from deep grass green to pale apple green and lavender to red!

…there are earrings, pendants and rings to coordinate – some with precious stone embellishment.

Oh…and the PEARLS!!!! Of course there are the usual cultured South Seas and Tahitians but check out this amazing natural Clam Pearl necklace…

…and this glorious Conch Pearl version of the station necklace (or Tin-Cup) style!

Were you looking for a carved Tourmaline?

OK, OK…one for the diamond girls out there…

Take a few minutes out of your day to sit back and enjoy the beauty of this gorgeous story of important colored gemstone pieces!
