A royal jewel, 30 carat pearl brooch is set for auction at Christies in Geneva Switzerland on May 14th. The Ana Maria pearl was a gift of King Charles V of Spain to a noble family and where it remained for generations. Using cutting edge radiocarbon analysis, the Swiss Gemological Institute (SSEF) confirms the age of the pearl—something unheard of previously. The laboratory is happy to speak with you.
Jewels with fabulous royal provenance are currently trending at auction. Sotheby’s set a record for pearls at auction in 2018 with the $36 million dollar sale of the Marie Antoinette Pearl.
