David Webb Leopard Bracelet & Piaget Dalí D’or Estate Wristwatch Come to Sale with Palm Beach Modern Auctions

Human beings have always shared a very intimate relationship with the animal world. Across cultures, fauna symbols signify profound meanings in the creative expressions of jewelry designs. David Webb, the international fine jewelry house, is well known for its bold enamel animal bracelets. The upcoming sale from Palm Beach Modern Auctions will feature one such 18-karat gold and emerald leopard cuff bracelet. It is fashioned with green emerald beads set in the eyes. The big cat symbolizes agility, strength, courage, power, and determination. Another noteworthy fauna lot is a pair of Van Cleef & Arpels 18-karat gold, platinum, and diamond butterfly pins. The pins are styled with ruby eyes, emeralds in the wings, and approximately 1.20 carats of old European brilliant-cut diamonds. 

A striking Piaget Dalí D’or Estate wristwatch also leads the listings. It is an 18-karat yellow gold manual backwind watch with graduated link and a 22-karat yellow gold coin at the end. The piece was an outcome of a collaboration between Swiss clockmaker Yves Piaget and Spanish painter Salvador Dalí.
