A rare opportunity for the jewelry company Taylor & Hart, a fabulous bespoke company based in London, has recently come to fruition and both Taylor & Hart and myself are very excited about it! Taylor & Hart specializes in bespoke engagement rings and does an amazing job creating dream rings for people to treasure for years!
After over 30 years of collecting as a hobby, a prolific Portuguese collector has amassed a collection of a unique variety of exquisite jewels, totaling over 3,000 luxurious pieces!

It features necklaces, earrings, and crosses that are cast in gold, diamonds, pearls, rubies, emeralds and sapphires.
