AstaGuru’s Jewellery Auction Pays Tribute To Art Deco & European Design

Mumbai-based auction house AstaGuru will present a collection of coveted jewellery, vintage silver, and extraordinary timepieces at its auction scheduled on 20th-21st October.

The catalogue brings together a broad range of sophisticated artisanal pieces with exceptional design and craftsmanship heritage from across the world. With several Art Deco pieces, the selection also shines a light on the legacy of the influential movement that brought a revolution in jewellery tastes and preferences.

Jay Sagar, Jewellery Expert, AstaGuru Auction House, said, The curation for the jewellery category in the upcoming auction is unlike any other AstaGuru has presented before. The prized collection is truly an ode to the rich history and intricate craftsmanship of European designs. The lots offered are fine examples of pieces created with a confluence of precious gemstones, including natural pearls, fancy vivid diamonds, Zambian emeralds, Burmese rubies, and spinels.

Of the total 125 lots on offer, one of the highest lots is a five-row natural pearl necklace executed with finely graduating 480 saltwater pearls. It is estimated to fetch between ₹2,80,00,000 and ₹3,50,00,000.

The auction catalogue includes several breath-taking pieces executed with diamonds and emeralds. An important suite of emerald and diamond jewellery is estimated at ₹1,90,00,000 – ₹2,20,00,000.

These Art Deco bajubands are set with old-cut diamonds and fine quality calibre-cut natural Burmese rubies in a chevron pattern. (Estimated at ₹80,00,000 – ₹1,00,00,000)
