NEW YORK, NY -- Doyle's auction of Important Jewelry on October 26, 2023 saw competitive bidding for luxurious jewelry by the world’s most prestigious makers, including Bulgari, Cartier, Harry Winston, Van Cleef & Arpels and Tiffany & Co. Among the offerings were sparkling rings set with high-carat-weight diamonds and colored gemstones in a variety of cuts, as well as a dazzling array of necklaces, brooches and bracelets. The selection of luxury timepieces included fine wristwatches by Patek Philippe and Rolex.
Highlighting the sale was a ring by Bulgari centering a Kashmir sapphire of 7.45 carats that soared past its estimate of $100,000-150,000 to achieve a stunning $352,800. The sapphire attracted a great deal of interest due to its exceptional size, which is rare for a Kashmir sapphire.
Also noteworthy was a group of jewelry by Tiffany & Co. and Schlumberger from the Collection of a Prominent Entertainment Family. The legendary collaboration between the French designer Jean Schlumberger and Tiffany & Co. produced some of the most iconic jewelry of the 20th century. Read More
