#JWLV – Las Vegas Antique Jewelry and Watch Show #LVAJW

by Robyn Hawk on June 21, 2013

There is no location in Las Vegas more perfectly suited to the show it hosts than the Paris Hotel partnership with the Las Vegas Antique Jewelry and Watch Show!



From the vintage feel of the decor to the opulence of their stunning chandeliers this place just feels like you are taking a step back in time.

I would love to share some of the highlights for me!  …for those wanting a little more there is a photo album on The Daily Jewel page on Facebook that has all the photos I took… https://www.facebook.com/dailyjewel

JODEN WORLD RESOURCES

Joden World Resources has what is believed to be the largest and rarest collection of the work of Carlo Giuliano (1831-1895).


The bracelet itself is a fully hinged bangle, as we would call it. It is in 18 karat yellow gold gem set with square sapphires, rubies and trimmed in diamonds which is typical of the time period.  Carlo Giuliano is considered among experts to be the master of all jewelers who ever lived. Notably a personal friend and often private jeweler to Queen Victoria.

Even more impressive is that it comes in it’s original custom designed presentation box!

Also from Joden – this gorgeous mosaic suite – you just don’t see much antique mosaic that doesn’t show signs of loss…and again “in the original box”!

VIVID DIAMONDS

18k Silver on Gold Bow Brooch in the original box from a London Jeweler.
30ctw Natural Blue Sapphire framed with 5ctw of Rose Cut Diamonds.  Weights are approximated.

Vivid Diamonds is a Miami based company that initially specialized in cutting rough diamonds to manufacture fine white and rare natural fancy colored diamonds and diamond jewelry. 

I don’t have the specifics on this stunning Art Deco Bracelet – check their website for info…
Over 5ctw in Orange Diamonds! WOW!


Today Vivid Diamonds’ gem and jewelry collections encompass virtually every facet of the gem and jewelry industry – they have created their own designer jewelry line – they carry a full assortment of natural colored gemstones and gemstone jewelry – and most recently, they have added unique and beautiful vintage estate pieces. Today Vivid Diamonds’ gem and jewelry collections encompass virtually every facet of the gem and jewelry industry.

I found this line on their website and I have to say that I totally agree!  “What is even more impressive is their success at making every customer feel elated to have met and dealt with Vivid Diamonds.”

From their gallery in a beautiful Edwardian building on Maddox Street in the heart of Mayfair, an area rich in the history of the antiques trade of London, today the company is at the pinnacle of their trade, with clientele across the US, Europe and the Far East.


There was quite literally, beauty in every direction at this show…
