The Diamond Jewelry & Watches sale will similarly offer a finely curated selection of sparkling watches and jewelry from premier designers.
“Fine jewelry and masterfully crafted accessories are a particularly good investment, not only for their instant beauty but also for their lasting value and ability to transcend fashion’s cyclic trends,” says Cynthia Pappas, Head of The Luxury Sale. “Whether it is a vintage diamond watch or a classic Chanel bag, these pieces hold inherent and timeless value that only seem to increase in popularity over the years. The select pieces in these auctions will not only last for ages, but will also be eagerly awaited by future generations.”
