Mexican Silver

~ circa 1930-70’s

Showcasing Mexican silver since the late 80’s we feature William Spratling, Hector Aguilar, Antonio Pineda, Los Castillo and others. These designs done decades ago are just as relevant today as they were when they were made. They complement contemporary décor as well as traditional interiors. Our clients are constantly adding to pieces purchased years ago. And we continue to search for interesting hollow ware and flatware.

Mexican Silver Jewelry

~ circa 1930-70’s

Our Mexican jewelry dates from the 30’s through the 70’s. We carry the well known designers: William Spratling, Antonio Pineda, Margot de Taxco, Los Castillo, Hector Aguilar, Piedra y Plata as well as wonderful unsigned pieces. While we search for signed jewelry, if the design and workmanship are good,it does not matter that a piece is unsigned. As long as you love it that is the bottom line!

Couture Costume Jewlery

~ circa 1960-80's

We feature signed pieces of jewelry as well as unsigned pieces, c 1950-80.YSL, Lagerfeld, Trifari, Monet, Napier, Haskell; these are just a few of the names we have in our inventory. Again, let me say that there are many, many unsigned pieces of great design and workmanship. Gold and silver metals,clear and colored rhinestones and, Lucite are all here.

Bakelite

~ circa 1930-60’s

Who does not love the interesting jewelry and objects that one can find made of Bakelite and celluloid? Juicy colors of bangles, pins and necklaces. Useful objects such as boxes, kitchenware and dressing table ornaments all delight the eye. While our collection is becoming pared down, we still seek out the unusual. Try some eye candy today!

 

Glass

~ circa 1930-50’s

We have always specialized in British glass, namely Whitefriars. As of late we are paring down our collection. However should you desire something, let us know. We may be able to find it for you through our many sources.

 

Ceramics

~ circa 1920-60’s

We have always loved British pottery, especially the designs of Clarice Cliff. In the 90’s we had the largest collection of her work. Here too, we have sold off most of the collection. But we can help you find something that you are longing for.We also carry Keith Murray for Wedgwood c 1930-45 as well.
 

 

Handbags

 

We feature high end handbags by designers such as Emilio Pucci, Youngsman, Whiting and Davis, Maud Frizon, Christian Lacroix. Beautiful craftsmanship with many made in France and England.

 

Books

 

Mexican Silver by Penny Morrill and Carole Berk. We continue to carry all of our Mexican books. Over time other books have been added. Looking for an out of print book on jewelry, pottery, glass or anything else, we may be able to find it for you. And we will be suggesting new titles if we think they may be of interest to you.
