1890s Victorian Pearl Axe Brooch, 14K, $295
Don’t know the symbolism here exactly. We’ve had plenty of axe pins over the years, but never one quite so fine as this, and never with a pearl being chopped.

In the shop this evening. That Erie Basin banner on the table was a present from a friend, who found it in Baltimore. It’s on canvas and was part of one of those rolling bus stop signs. Back when Red Hook was called Erie Basin.

1930-40s Art Deco 1.15ctw Step and Half Moon Cut Diamond Ring
(F-G / VS2-SI1) Platinum, $5150
One of the cooler Deco rings I’ve seen in a while. I’ve been especially attracted to unusual early 20th century diamond cuts lately. Here a pair of half moon cut diamonds surround a step cut center, forming an oval shaped plaque of diamonds. I like the idea of diamond cut directing the shape of the ring.
