Asprey

Property from a Distinguished Collector

The following casket of jewels represents a lifetime of collecting. Each piece was carefully and purposefully selected by an elegant, eloquent and erudite Italian lady who was guided by her refined taste and quest for beauty. The collection is both a reflection of her artistic appreciation as well as her personal history and the emotional milestones that marked her life. As such she transformed mere adornment into a highly personalised form of expression, showcasing her love for and knowledge of the best 20th -century design and craftsmanship from a panoply of prestigious international houses including Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Boucheron, Chaumet, Bulgari, Tiffany & Co. and David Webb. This finely curated ensemble reflects the collector’s assured taste and sophisticated artistic sensibilities.

Sotheby’s are honoured to be presenting this collection in our High Jewelry and Fine Jewelry sales this season, in Geneva. To see the rest of the collection please go to Sothebys.com to view lots in the Fine Jewelry sale.
