Pair Pre-Ban IVORY Gorgeous Carved Full Bloom Rose & Foliage Bangles Bracelets Lush foliage, rosebuds and full-blossom roses burst forth from this pair of deeply carved, pre-ban vintage ivory bangle bracelets. Each bangle is 5/16" in wide, 3/8" thick, and has an inner opening of 2 9/16".

Do take some time to admire the incredible handwork that went into carving the fine serrated edges on the leaves—some are translucent they are so thinly sculpted as they curl above the surface; the petals that furl into the centers of the roses; and the smoothly polished background. The natural cross-hatch graining is visible on the ultra-smooth interior of each bangle and the edges of the carved foliage and roses.

The bangles are in superb condition. It is rare to find a matched pair and the carving on this duo is truly impressive.

Vintage Gerda Lynggaard for MONIES Carved Bone & Cord Long Necklace This Gerda Lynggaard for MONIES carved necklace has 23 large rounded rectangular hand-carved bone beads strung on hand-knotted thick twine and reinforced with two strands of cream cord—what a unique and warm blend of natural materials! The necklace measures approximately 39" long and each bead is about 1 ¼" wide and 3/8" thick. Each bead is made by affixing two tablets back-to-back; you can see the natural grain on some of the beads. All are polished to a warm luster so you will find yourself caressing these "touch stones" for their soothing quality. The strand is continuous and slips over the head. It has some heft so be sure to stand tall—you will be noticed!

One bead has an inlaid round sterling silver tag stamped "Gerda Lynggaard for MONIES Copenhagen" to certify its authenticity. The necklace is in excellent condition. It came from the collection of a woman who spent much time in Europe and Africa and selected only fine quality and bold artisan jewels for her collection.

Elegant Smoky Quartz Large Gemstones Flexible Bracelet If you like big gemstones and earthy hues, the large smoky quartz rounds of this estate bracelet will captivate you instantly. This impressive bracelet measures 11/16" wide across the gem portion and tapers to 3/8" at the back. The approximate inside length is 7".

Each smoky quartz stone is individually cut and polished and has a large, clear table that, by adding to the weight and depth of the stone, maximizes the color. The bracelet has 20 stones, each approximately 8mm in diameter. Since they are set I can only approximate weight but a conservative total is 24 carats. The prong settings have good, deep cups to protect the sides of the gemstones as well as the culets. The bracelet has total flexibility across the wrist since each vertical pair of stones is hinged to move independently. This unique construction and lack of a hallmark suggests the piece is not American.

The closure is a smooth bar that snaps firmly and is reinforced with an attached safety chain. The metal does not test as 10K gold so either it is gold-filled, heavily plated finish, or a lower carat gold. The condition is excellent. The stones will compliment just about any shade of earth tones while their size and richness fetch many admiring glances.
 

Aventurine Pendant with Koi Fish & Fortune Symbol Set with Opals, Gems This vintage Asian aventurine gemstone pendant has two sides for twice the beauty and luck! One side of the 2 5/8" has a polished aventurine stone plaque has a gold-plated good fortune symbol for a simpler look of Eastern mystery. The other side is set with engraved golden sea flora among which swim two koi fish with opal bodies. The koi have facetted amethyst eyes and blue-green smaller accent stones are set in the sea flowers. (I’ve taken images at a few different angles to capture the fire in the opals and the colors of the stones.) Aventurine is often confused with jade; it is translucent and has speckled shades of green scattered throughout.

The 24" gold-filled, spiral link chain closes with a spring-ring clasp; its profile mimics the twisted border of the pendant very nicely. It’s in great condition and could well bestow both beauty and bounty upon the wearer!  

Delightful Carved Jade Buddha Drop Earrings with Pearls & Coral Large vintage carved Buddhas of jadeite/nephrite give these drop earrings a distinctive Asian flair.

Above the jade figures are freshwater rice pearls and natural branch coral on gold-filled wires. The lever back pierced earrings are 14K gold-filled too. These beneficent Buddhas will bring an elegant grace note to your ears!
