Hindman to Offer Type IIa Diamond Ring and Luxury Jewelry in September Sale

A Type IIa diamond ring with Internally Flawless clarity will cross Hindman’s auction block in its upcoming Important Jewelry sale. The ring centers a 5.89-carat brilliant-cut diamond surrounded by numerous smaller stones. Crafted by Taffin, this ring comes with a GIA report from 2019 and loose diamonds removed from the platinum mounting. Taffin is a New York-based jewelry house started by James de Givenchy in 1996. Since its founding, the brand has become known for settings that bring out the individuality of each gemstone. Several loose diamonds will also be available in this auction. Among them is a 5.12-carat emerald-cut diamond with D color and VVS2 clarity. 

Jewelry collectors can consider several lots from luxury brands such as Verdura, Harry Winston, Tiffany & Co., and Bulgari. The catalog presents several items from Bulgari’s Monete series. This line of necklaces and bracelets joins antique Greek, Roman, and Persian coins with sleek contemporary metals. Available in this sale is a Bulgari Monete necklace featuring a Roman coin and yellow gold. The front of the coin depicts a regal bust crowned with laurels. On the reverse, a small figure sits in careful thought. 

Also available is a classic Verdura “Sunburst” cuff bracelet from 2007. This style, which dates back to the brand’s early years, features an enamel star shape set in 18-karat yellow gold and colorful gemstones. The motif intentionally suggests the Midieval Knights of Malta. Other notable lots on offer include a citrine and amber necklace from Tony Duquette; a gold, emerald, and diamond bracelet by Enrico Serafini; and a selection of wristwatches from Cartier, Patek Philippe, and Van Cleef & Arpels.
