COLLECTOR’S CORNER

HAMMER TIME

Summer has arrived in Chicago! After enduring the chilly temperatures of the Midwest for months, it’s time to rejoice in the return of long daylight hours and balmy evenings. Whether planning festive nights with loved ones or elegant outdoor soirées, Freeman’s Hindman is here to help you shine.

We are thrilled to offer a curated selection of fine jewelry from our June 18 Important Jewelry Auction—the perfect finishing touch for your next event. This is a wonderful opportunity to discover timeless pieces that elevate any look and capture the spirit of the season.

‘Diamond Dots’ bracelet by Jean Schlumberger for Tiffany & Co.

Iconic in both design and for the women who have worn them, the ‘Diamond Dots’ bracelet by Jean Schlumberger for Tiffany & Co. is a collector’s piece: First introduced in the 1960’s, the designer’s signature Paillonné enamel pieces are created by a 19th Century technique, when enamel is repeatedly layered over very fine sheets of gold, creating rich hues with dramatic depth of color and shimmer. This red edition would be a delight at any 4th of July celebration!

Temple St Clair’s ‘Blue Moon’ Amulet

On a personal note, I am thrilled that we are presenting a collection of Temple St Clair’s amulets and chains in our June Important Jewelry sale. These amulets are rarely offered in the secondary market, and this collection is in pristine condition.

Temple St Clair’s ‘Blue Moon’ Amulet is nothing short of spectacular. Her rock crystal amulets are a signature of her collection, established almost forty years ago, especially worn with her recognizable circular chains. Temple’s amulets are born in design from her travels to Florence and love of storytelling. Since the beginning of time, amulets have been recorded in history as symbols offering protection and good fortune. They also pair perfectly with your favorite caftan on a warm summer evening.

Diamond and platinum ring by JB Star


JB Star has been creating luxurious jewelry for over four decades in New York City. They have a reputation for meticulously designed pieces that can be considered wearable works of art. This stunning diamond and platinum ring, featuring a 5.04 carat round brilliant cut is no exception and sparkles from every angle. The mounting is reminiscent of the 1940’s Retro period, featuring several diamond cuts streamlined into a gorgeous cocktail ring.


Freeman’s | Hindman’s Important Jewelry auction will be held on June 18 in its New York saleroom. Chicago previews will be held June 5-9.
