Sotheby’s is honored to present bold, sophisticated and timeless jewelry and fine art from an American Private Collection. A keen appreciation of quality and beauty is reflected in this collection of splendid jewels, which includes classics from Van Cleef & Arpels, Adler Jewelers, and Marcus & Co. This selection encompasses all the essentials of sophistication: striking gold jewelry, statement earclips, classic pearls and most notedly, a fine selection of diamonds. Altogether, these pieces are always appropriate and could be worn from the boardroom to the symphony.
In addition to these jewels, the collection is made up of fine art by David Hockney, Alex Katz, Joan Miró, Milton Avery, and Willem De Kooning, among others, which were offered throughout Sotheby’s Contemporary, Impressionist and Modern and American Art sales this fall.
