| #Antique Aquamarine & Gold Earrings dating to approximately 1870 |
Over the past decade, I've had the pleasure of attending and participating in the high end Estate Auctions hosted by DUPUIS, located in Toronto, Canada. Some of my most treasured pieces have been purchased through Dupuis. The jewelry consigned to this auction company ranges from antique to vintage and the quality is always very high.
Dupuis carries designer signed pieces, but it's their Art Deco, Edwardian, Victorian, Art Nouveau jewels that simply make me drool with desire. Unfortunately, I can rarely afford to purchase more than a couple of pieces at any one time, since there's also a 25% buyer's premium...not unusual for Estate Auction Houses of Dupuis calibre and reputation...but for the most part, this old girl can dream about owning jewelry like what Dupuis offers.
Dupuis' next Estate auction is online only and is scheduled for the week of August 8-15, 2019. Registered and approved buyers can begin placing bids right now. Would you like to see what is being offered during this auction? Browse their online catalogue here. Apart from the stunning pair of antique aquamarine earrings above (needless to say I'm a sucker for beautiful earrings) here's another pair below that caught my eye.

I'm not sure I'm game to look at all the other lovely items in that upcoming auction! But if you're curious, and can afford it, slip over to that upcoming Dupuis Online Auction, browse, and if you dare, bid. Online Estate Auctions are fun...not quite the same as sitting right in the audience and feeling the tension mounting in the room...but still quite a buzz. Try it! You might like it.
