I love how the green pressed glass turns gold when you tilt it. . And yet this did not sell at Christie’s last week. Bidding reached $55,000 but failed to reach the $60,000 reserve. | The Jewelry Loupe | Facebook

Art Nouveau brooch/pendant by René Lalique, c. 1905, of enamel and molded glass, diamonds and aquamarines in gold, in my hands just before it sold for $325,000 at Christie’s in 2019. Everything about this is sublime. Notice the detail on the back! | The Jewelry Loupe
