Our galleries are now closed to the public but the building has never looked more beautiful thanks to our collaboration with collector JJ Martin, founder of fashion brand La DoubleJ, and so we wanted to share some of that beauty and creativity with you. In this video, specialist Kristian Spofforth gives you a private look at our current jewellery exhibition and introduces some of the highlights from our upcoming Fine Jewels sale (31 March - 7 April | Online). An array of stylish jewels features notable pieces by Van Cleef & Arpels, Paltscho, Masriera y Carrera and many more. The exhibition has been further enhanced by an imaginative collaboration, inspired by the sophistication, colour and vintage patterns of collector JJ Martin, founder of fashion brand La DoubleJ.
