On view at Sotheby’s New York through August 16—just across the street from the jeweler’s Madison Avenue boutique—the presentation brings together a mix of archival treasures and contemporary jewels. Highlights include a never-before-seen ’50s aquamarine suite, a Zebra bracelet made from cabochon rubies, black enamel, and brilliant-cut diamonds, and a new take on the house’s signature Totem necklace. For the history buffs, the jeweler’s jaw-dropping pieces are located just steps away from the Declaration of Independence.Watch Next Advertisement - Continue Reading BelowChanel Brings Back the BAAND Together FestivalAlexandra Grant’s Favorite Stories Star WomenInside Art Basel 2026Crystal Bridges Museum Celebrates 15 YearsAdvertisement - Continue Reading BelowInside Tilda Swinton’s Performance in BilbaoHow Yayoi Kusama Ruled the Pop Art WorldA Look Inside the Obama Presidential CenterSonya Yu Is on a Mission to Make Museums FreeNew Doc Explores Nashville’s Christian Music SceneThe Best Moments at the Venice BiennaleInside Frieze New York 2026Hudson Valley Shakespeare Gets a New HomeAdvertisement - Continue Reading Below
