Brief: Graff, Boucheron, and more tantalize at auction for Bonhams
BY KAREN AANONSEN
If variety is the spice of life, Bonhams is kicking up the heat at its London, Knightsbridge location. From gothic, diamond-bedecked goodies to classic pearl designs to romantic, gem-filled floral pieces, the March 11 Jewellery sale promises something for every buyer. And with 305 lots, most of the major maisons — including, Van Cleef & Arpels, Graff, Cartier, and Repossi — are lavishly represented. One sweet set catching the eye of Boucheron devotees? Lot 290. The diamond and enamel flower brooch and earring pairing is estimated to charm bidders out of a high of $12,000.
