of thermal treatment. This ring has the estimate of £1,000-1,500.
Our designer plates display a host of modern pieces, ranging in styles and
designs. As ever, we are offering examples by Cartier, Bulgari, Gucci and
Tiffany & Co. A standout piece is lot 296, a mid-20th Century gold bracelet
by Georg Jensen, estimated at £460-660. Also, lot 285 is a pair of striking
enamel diamond and ruby ear studs by Cartier. Part of the Le-Baiser-duDragon
collection, they will be offered at £2,500-3500.
Finally, plate 9 features lot 674, a Belle Epoque Boucheron vase and cover.
This vase, comprised of solid lapis lazuli is perfectly complemented by the
stylistic fl oral swags adorning it. Lapis lazuli is a rock consisting mainly of lazurite, calcite, and pyrite, giving it its unique cobalt colour and glinting metallic flecks. This finely crafted piece has an estimate of £3,000-4,000.
