I just found out about an online auction site called IGavel. Billed as "the only truly online fine art and antiques auction house," iGavel is located in NYC, and hosts a plethora of auctions in fine arts and antiques. I was drawn to the site because of its Fine Jewelry sale ending December 10. They have a wide variety of jewelry offerings in all areas, from costume to designer to estate jewels,and more! Check out the huge 18K gold pendant by Gucci above! Truly wild. And there are other avant-garde pieces from Scandinavian designers such as Georg Jensen, too.
But not all of iGavel's jewelry sale is kookie. I also found this more discreet, beautiful platinum and diamond star bangle bracelet by Chanel:
What's great about auctions is that you can sometimes get true steals, as well as excellent prices on semi-vintage fine jewelry.
There are also glitzy rings, like this stunning aquamarine cocktail ring from the 1960s. Replete with a huge emerald cut aquamarine flanked by triangular diamonds, it's fab:
And not to be outdone, iGavel is also offering a gold and diamond Rolex watch.
.
With a current bid of $2200, this certainly seems like a relative bargain to me!
Go to iGavel.com for more information and to register. And happy bidding!
