Welcome to the Alice Riordan Estate Jewelry Blog! I have been dealing in fine estate jewelry for over 12 years now and I am a GIA Graduate Gemologist. Most of the time I have to speak about diamond grades and facts, which I know are important. But I really wanted a space to talk about what inspires me, what moves me, occasionally to tears--yes, I have seen jewelry so beautiful, I cried. But more about that another time....
I also create jewelry from vintage pieces and add a bit of my own style. Here is my
newest collection made from antique watch pieces from the 1700s - 1800s mostly fusee movements. I added diamonds and gemstones to soften the industrial feel. I was going for something a bit mystical, feminine and historical. Please let me know what you think!
