By creating jewellery which was articulated and wherein each piece was mass produced then mix and matched to create brand new designs, Bulgari could pair colours, textures, and stones that made strange, but striking, bedfellows.The Gianco collection launched in 1987 off the heels of Parentesi collection in 1982, which had proved incredibly successful. The collection can be recognised by its use of yellow gold and pearls alongside candy-coloured amethysts, peridots, tourmalines, aquamarines, and citrine.Condition Report: Pearl: of white tint, high lustre with pink and green overtonesNormal signs of wear, overall in good conditionTotal gross weight approx. 12.3g

AN YELLOW BERYL AND DIAMOND DRESS RING, BY CHATILAThe central mixed-cut oval-shaped yellow beryl heliodor within a brilliant-cut diamond two-claw setting and between similarly-cut diamond shoulders, mounted in 18K gold, signed Chatila, ring size RWhen George Chatila founded his jewellery house in Beirut in 1860, he could not have foreseen his name would be synonymous with fine jewellery for the next one hundred and sixty odd years. After growing successfully in Lebanon for over a century, in 1983 the house moved to Switzerland. This moved marked the explosion of the brand in Europe and abroad, with two flagship boutiques opening in Bond Street, London, and Rue de Rhône, Geneva, within the decade.During this time, Chatila became known for its magnificent, coloured diamonds, pioneering the popularity they hold in the jewellery market today. Indeed, one of the few red diamonds to exist, ‘The Flame of Argyle’, was sold by them, solidifying their reputation as the purveyor of the finest diamonds, not least the 76-carat D flawless Archduke Joseph Diamond, which sold at auction in Geneva in 2012 for a record-breaking $21.5 million.Chatila is still a family-run business to this day, with the third and fourth generation of Chatilas in charge. No gemstone passes through their workshop without first undergoing the discerning eyes of Nicholas Chatila and his sons, Marwan, Edward, and Carlos. Although Geneva, London, and New York remain their primary locations, their jewellery is mostly designed in France and Italy. The boldness of their stones are offset by the delicate and intricate designs they are set in, creating a dazzling display on the person lucky enough to wear a piece.Condition Report: Of greenish-yellow hue, medium tone, good transparency, facets are smoothDiamonds: bright and well matchedNormal signs of wear, overall in good condition

A RUBY AND DIAMOND 'TOI ET MOI' DRESS RING, BY A. E. KÖCHERTOf crossover design, set with a pear-shaped ruby and a pear-shaped diamond, between tapered baguette-cut diamonds, mounted in 18K gold, principal diamond weighing approximately 0.90ct, remaining diamonds weighing approximately 0.50ct total, signed Köchert, with maker mark, ring size JThe House of Köchert actually begins with a man named Emanuel Pioté, a French goldsmith who opened a workshop in Vienna in 1814, where his deft skill quickly earned him a reputation among the city’s upper classes for quality work. In 1819, Heinrich Köchert, Pioté’s new brother-in-law, would join him in this venture as an associate. The reputation of the jewellers began to grow and in 1831 they were declared the personal jewellers of the Austrian Emperor, a position Köchert would hold until the dissolution of the empire in 1918. Pioté would retire in 1948, thus solidifying the house under Köchert’s name.Köchert was responsible for some of the most iconic pieces worn by Empress Elisabeth, or ‘Sisi’, herself a fashion icon of the age, including the diamond and pearl studded star-shaped hair ornaments that appear in her official 1865 portrait by Xaver Winterhalter now known as ‘Sisi Stars’. Köchert would continue to enjoy success throughout the 1800s by creating sumptuous pieces for European royalty, including overseeing the adding of pearls as part of the restoration of the Austro-Hungarian Imperial Crown. The outbreak of WWI would see this distinguished clientèle vanish, but the house survived by adapting with the times and embracing the Art Deco trends. Now in the hands of Erich and Wilfried Köchert, the painter Erwin Lang is taken on to design new jewellery for a new age. Lang’s stone rings quickly became popular and remain a staple of the brand to this day.Surviving both WWII and the rise of the Iron Curtain, Köchert would continue to innovate through collaboration, including with renowned architect Hans Hollein, who in 1986 released a collection with the jewellery house. Today, the sixth generation of Köchert’s are in command at house’s flagship boutique in Vienna and, if their history tells us anything, there they will be for a long, long while.

Throughout his work, Fasano adhered to the traditional practices of Parisian jewellers, and, while styles changed, the craftmanship that lay at the heart of their work was honoured by him throughout his life. He married Stella Piovano in 1932 and she was to be his life-long partner in every sense of the term. Together in 1935 they opened their first store in Piazza Castello, the heart of Turin’s lively social scene.As the white gems and platinum of the 1930s gave way to the bold colours and yellow gold of the 1940s and 50s, Fasano’s signature pheasant or ‘Fagiona’ brooch, the emblem of his maison, became a recognisable staple in the world of fine Italian jewellery. As the 50s progressed, Fasano’s and Stella’s attention moved more towards the selection of precious and unusual stones, favouring cabochon cuts and those less traditional cuts. When their son Dario Fasano joined the family business in the 1960s, the older generation drew on his experiences studying abroad to bring a fresher spin on their materials and techniques, such as lava stone and gold/bronze combinations.Fasano Jewellers closed operations in 2013, but their pieces still embody some of the best in mid-century jewellery.Condition Report: Central ruby: please note the weight to be very approximate due to collet setting, approx. 2.10cts, of purplish-red hue, good transparency, medium to dark tone, facets are smoothRemaining rubies: of purplish-red hue, medium to dark tone, good transparency, overall well matched in colourDiamonds: approx. 2.50cts total, unable to assess colour due to yellow mount, estimated clarity VSSignature and Italian assay mark located inside the hoop, 750 for 18K gold located inside hoopMinor signs of wear, overall in good conditionTotal gross weight approx. 8.6g* Please note that the ruby was verbally tested at GCS laboratory in London in February 2022.

From the private collection of a continental ladyA RUBY AND DIAMOND DRESS RING, BY CARLO ILLARIOThe central cushion-shaped ruby within a calibré-cut ruby surround and between baguette and tapered baguette-cut diamond shoulders with gold reeded detailing, mounted in 18K gold, diamonds approximately 0.50ct total, Italian registry mark '26AL' for Carlo Illario, ring size M½Brothers Carlo, Vincenzo and Luigi Illario were a family of goldsmiths from Valenza. They established a jewellery firm in 1920, with each brother taking on their own position. Carlo, who was trained in Paris, headed the production, Vincenzo was a stone setter who also selected the precious gems, and Luigi was head of administration.The brothers worked under their own name, as well as for bigger firms, and were involved with several different jewellery companies. Some of the most renowned goldsmiths in Valenza practised in their workshop, guaranteeing that each product was crafted with exceptional quality.The company brand from 1935 had been 26AL and the business name was under Carlo Illario e Filli. Traditionally, ownership was handed down from father to son and, in 1953, even Luigi's sons, Giovanni and Vittorio, became a part of the family business. From the end of the 1900s, Vittorio and his sons, Pier Luigi and Edoardo, carried on as owners of the company with the 'Illario 1920' logo.In 1996, Giovanni Illario, along with his sons Carlo and Gian Luca, agreed with Vittorio and his sons to set up a new company that would allow them to be more active in the foreign market. This led to a split in Societa Carlo Illario and to the creation of the new Societa Carlo Luca della Quercia which pursues the traditions and spirit of the original company.Their skilled craftsmanship, reputation of excellence and use of innovative goldsmith techniques caught the attention of well-established retailers. Throughout the 20th century, Casa Illario created unique pieces of haute joaillerie for the most famous Italian maisons: Bvlgari, Cusi, Faraone, Fasano, Fecarotta, Settepassi, Ventrella and others. The company's partnership with Bvlgariwas particularly long standing, running from the 1950s through until the 1970s.In this time, Illario made many pieces for Bvlgari, including the now iconic Serpenti watch bracelet. Elizabeth Taylor was a consistent patron, whose personal style and love of dramatic jewels found its home in Illario's creations.Alongside manufacturing for other brands, Illario produced a vibrant assortment of jewellery under their own name. They were known for their fine gemstones and unusual materials, such as polychrome enamel, tortoiseshell and mother of pearl. Striving to stand out, Illario used new techniques in its pieces, such as black rhodium plating to create a contrasted look. The quality of the craftsmanship is clear in all jewels that bear the Illario name, making them highly desirable.Condition Report: Ruby: of purplish-red hue, medium to dark tone, good transparencyCalibré-cut rubies: of medium to dark tone, overall well matched in colourDiamonds: unable to assess colour due to yellow mount, estimated clarity VSNormal signs of wear, overall in good conditionTotal gross weight approx. 14.2g

THREE CHINESE IMPERIAL KINGFISHER FEATHER HAIR ORNAMENTS QING DYNASTY One formed as an oval plaque, decorated with blossoming flowers with semi-precious stones, seed pearl petals, and dense foliage, the other two circular plaques with similar designs, each stabilised with metal wires, 16.5cm max. (3) Provenance: a private collection, London. Cf. C Gao, Chinese Dress & Adornment Through The Ages, The Art of Classic Fashion, p.163, no.324 for a set of similar kingfisher hair ornaments. From the Qing dynasty Tongzhi period onwards, noble Manchurian ladies wore silk fabrics and elaborate hair ornaments to form a Liangbatou, which is a fake double-ended chignon fixed at the top of the head. This type of opulent hair ornaments was specifically designed for attaching to the artificial hair piece, which symbolise a woman's social status and her Manchu identity.
