- The popularity of black-a-moors originate back to ancient times when used as gifts for protection during wars to our century for being including in a famous novel by Hemingway. The black-a-moors have been appreciated also by persons of international prestige as Barbara Hutton, Ernest Hemingway, Arthur Rubenstein, Elton John, Liz Taylor, and continue to be a longed-for object for élite collectors and for the international fashion.
In the 1920’s and 1930’s exquisite Ebony busts with delicate 18kt collars were sold to visitors in Italy, primarily for use as a charm on their bracelets. This popular use caused extensive damage to many original pieces, so few managed to survive throughout the years. The finest examples of these pieces were sought out by noted artists such as Nardi and other master jewelry designers who turned their remarkable talents to adoring these treasures with lavish jewels in turbans and breastplates. Terry shared in Nardi’s passion in these rare artifacts and created her own exclusive design line of these precious pieces.
In our century the originality and fantasy of the Venetian people created an endless variety of black-a-moors representations: bust and turban have become a space where the best local goldsmith's techniques are represented, with fretworks, engravings and filigrees. In recent times the monochromatism often prevailed with pearls, brilliants, emeralds or rubys for an extremely selected clientele like noble and royal families; even Grace Kelly owned a black-a-moor and the royal family of Spain recently purchased in Venice beautiful black-a-moor brooch. -

Our online catalog and physical store in sunny South Florida displays Terry’s superb custom jewelry designs along with various handmade jewelry ensembles, one of a kind & antique or estate pieces. Terry has been keenly interested in and has become an expert in the 
restoration of vintage and antique jewelry. With over 37 years experience in the art of jewelry design and restoration, she has developed a love of period gems and jewelry components. She has become an avid collector of these pieces and she has amassed a well catalogued component collection as an in-house resource for the accurate restoration of vintage, antique and estate jewelry. A missing gem or pearl, or a damaged section of gold or platinum in a fine piece of antique jewelry should only be replaced with components which exactly match the color, cut, size, shape, age and patina of the original, she explains. Terry says that over the years she has amased a small mountain of vintage seed pearls, garnets, rose cut diamonds and colored stones. She even has the uniquely colored Persian turquoise (which are very difficult to match) in her collection.
Our well renowned custom design work is done right in-house, for even the most discerning, and most repairs done while you wait. Antique restoration is completed with the original stones and parts. Appraisals are also done while you wait, and we provide a picture with each appraisal. Insurance replacements are available. We carry a large selection of gemstones, gold parts, and we cast in 14kt.-18kt-22kt yellow, white, rose and green gold, and platinum.
