Coming up for auction on October 17 at Sotheby’s is this bauble by famed jeweller JAR. His exhibited pieces are generally a tour de force of stone setting in extravagant designs. This rather more prosaic piece is also lovely and wearable. The catalogue notes, “Set with an emerald-cut diamond, the shank set with single-cut diamonds on both sides, gross weight approximately 14 dwts, size 8½, signed JAR paris; circa 1996. With signed box.”

Auction estimate is USD$10,000-15,000 but I suspect it will go much higher.
