Christie’s is holding its Important Jewels auction in New York, one among the first to set pace for the fall season of Christie’s worldwide jewelry auctions. The auction is led by a superb 75.56 carat brilliant-cut fancy vivid yellow diamond ring (estimated at $3,000,000 - 4,000,000). With a total sale expectation of around $20 million, and estimates for items ranging from $3,000 up to $3 million, Christie’s is offering over 300 individual jewels, including a wide selection of colored diamonds and colorless diamonds, colored gemstones and signed jewelry in the auction.

Amongst the items on offer is also a cushion-cut fancy yellow diamond ring of 34.12 carats, mounted in platinum and 18k gold; a pear-shaped Fancy Intense yellowish-green diamond ring of 7.11 carats, set within a circular-cut pink diamond surround. Among the colorless diamond jewels on offer is an important D color marquise-cut diamond ring of 18.80 carats and two perfectly matched, impressive circular-cut diamonds of 20.02 and 20.01 carats, set as single-stone rings. A selection of impressive pieces by David Webb from The Collection of a Distinguished Lady, in which highlights include a whimsical spider brooch, its body set with a large cushion-cut kunzite and several other bold pieces custom-made for the collector.

Slated on October 20, the auction will also offer several rare and important brooches signed by jewelry design houses: Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Tiffany & Co., and David Webb. Particularly rare to auction are two brooches of pre-Columbian figures designed by Donald Claflin with finely carved coral, turquoise, pink tourmaline and citrine, a miniature recreation of the posture and costume found on traditional Pre-Columbian, Peruvian ceremonial knives. Another rare design is an art deco brooch by Cartier depicting the torso of a bejeweled man wearing an elaborate turban.

Among the rare gemstones on offer is a sapphire and diamond necklace by Van Cleef & Arpels, that may also be worn as a bracelet and a pair of sapphire and diamond ear pendants by David Webb. Additional signed jewels include a; spectacular Cartier Panthère ring; a Bulgari Serpenti bracelet watch.
