Yellow gold filigree Victorian bow necklace.
In our everlasting quest to find fresh antique jewelry we stumbled upon a real treasure. A jeweler's stock that has been in the family vaults for over 80 years. It is not often that we findjewelry that has been "trapped" in a time capsule. All jewelry in this stock was brand new when it was stored decades ago and besides a little dusting off we didn't have to do anything to offer it inits original meant-to-be splendour. This is as close to "brand new antique jewelry" as it can get.
