The oldest things we carry are often the most alive.
Georgian jewelry — made between
1714 and 1837 — represents the earliest era we curate. Every piece was
fabricated entirely by hand, before machinery entered the jeweler’s workshop.
What survives from this period is extraordinary, and increasingly rare.
The characteristics that make
Georgian jewelry unmistakable are the same ones that make it irreplaceable.
Closed-back settings that hold foil beneath stones to amplify candlelight.
Hairwork compartments on the reverse. Table-cut and rose-cut stones in settings
shaped like flowers, hearts, serpents, and stars. Symbolism that was understood
by everyone who wore or received the piece.
To collect Georgian jewelry is
to hold something that existed before photography and railroads.
Georgian pieces rarely appear
publicly. The best examples move through private hands. If you are building a collection or seeking something specific, speak to us directly.
