Gina Lollobrigida's jewelry sell big at Sotheby's

Gina Lollobrigida's Earrings, 74 Carat Yellow Diamond Set Records at Sotheby's

Fearlessness

Mariska Hargitay has been wearing this bar necklace on the show "Law and Order: SVU" since the mid 2000's. It's in 10K yellow gold. Engraved in it is the word "FEARLESSNESS".  Me&Ro sells it at $750. There is a sterling silver version available for $135. Net proceeds go to the Joyful Heart Foundation with which Hargitay is involved, and which supports survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence and child abuse. It's her (Olivia Benson's) signature jewelry. I like it.

Saw this last night on Antiques Roadshow. It's a late 19th century Scottish agate bracelet with gold and pearls. Est. value in 1998 was $1,500. Now valued at $4,000-$6,000, probably due to the increase in the price of gold. Found this unique and interesting but probably would neither buy nor wear.

Paper clip necklace

Saw this on a guest on the show "Bones". Thought it was genius. Two layers was just the thing to lift this necklace from the realm of kitsch. Would work well on plain crew neck tee and jeans. Statement jewelry for sure.
