NEW YORK – 21 MAY 2025 – Phillips is proud to present highlights from The New York Jewels Auction taking place on Thursday, 12 June at 10AM EDT. Comprised of 105 lots, the sale features an impressive selection of signed jewels from renowned jewelry maisons, including Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari, Chaumet, and others. Among these signed jewels are antique, vintage, and contemporary examples. Superb colored gemstones and impressive diamonds also feature prominently.

 

Cristina Rodrigo, Specialist, Head of Sale, said, “We are delighted to present collectors with such an extraordinary selection in our upcoming New York Jewels Auction, including stunning examples of signed jewels, showstopping colored gemstones, and impressive diamonds. Among the most compelling highlights is the Schlumberger for Tiffany & Co. ‘Etoile de Mer’ brooch — a striking expression of Jean Schlumberger’s visionary design. As Tiffany’s recent ‘Sea of Wonder’ high jewelry collection draws inspiration from his original 1960s creations, the timing of this brooch’s appearance feels especially resonant. We look forward to welcoming our collecting community to preview the sale in our New York galleries from 8-11 June. With a collection of jewels spanning decades of masterful design and craftsmanship, and an array of fine colored gemstones and diamonds at varying price points, there is something to delight every connoisseur and collector.”
