She later remarried another Tsarist officer. Towards the end of World War II, her daughter and son-in-law escaped ahead of the return of the Red Army however she remained. In 1944 she was arrested by the Soviet secret police, the NKVD, which erroneously believed her to have been married to another officer named Samsonov, the commander of the 2nd Russian Army in 1914.

DINH VAN: A ‘MENOTTES’ RING

REPOSSI: A BLACK DIAMOND ‘WHITE NOISE’ RING

Designed as two inner connected circular motifs, to a tapering band, signed dinh van, maker’s mark, French export mark, ring size J½ £1,200-1,500 Jean Dinh Van (1927-2022) was born to a French mother and a Vietnamese father. He studied drawing at the Arts Décoratifs, then the art of metalwork at École des Arts Décoratifs, Paris. In 1950, he joined Cartier in Paris, like his father before him, where he worked alongside Jeanne Toussaint. His father had trained in Viet Nam in the traditional craft of lacquered furniture. After serving in the French Army in WWI, his father settled in Paris and was hired by Cartier in the 1920s to bring those skills to their items, such as cigarette cases. After 10 years at Cartier Paris, Dinh Van started his own ventures, initially working on a collaboration with Jean Schlumberger. In 1965, he founded his eponymous brand. In 1967 his work was recognised at the World Fair in Montreal. This marked the starting point of a second period of work with Cartier, this time with the New York branch, designing exclusively for them. Dinh Van became the first ever designer whom Cartier permitted to co-sign their creations for the firm, a collaboration which lasted for a decade. His innovative, sculptural designs brought a unique edge to the company. Also see lot 90.

Hans Hansen (1884-1940) trained as a silversmith in the Carl M. Cohrs Silverware Factory from 1903 until 1906. In 1906 Hansen established his own workshop specialising in flatware. In 1930, his son Karl Gustav Hansen (1914-2002) joined the firm as an apprentice and in 1932 launched ‘The Future’ range introducing modernist silver jewellery to the repertoire. From 1935-1938 Karl Gustav studied at the Kunstakademiets Billedhuggerskole at the same time as working in the Hansen workshop. When his father died unexpectedly in 1940, Karl Gustav, at the age of just twenty five, took over the running the company. The company survived World War II and in 1953, Bent Gabrielsen joined the company and became the lead jewellery designer until 1969. After 1969 Karl Gustav became more involved with the design side once more and collaborated with Henry Moore and Lynn Chadwick in the 1970s. Karl Gustav Hansen was the CEO at Hans Hansen until 1987. In the 1970s Hansen’s distinctive jewellery designs became part of the offerings of the Georg Jensen group. The Han Hansen firm was ultimately acquired by the Royal Scandinavia Group in 1991, which merged with Georg Jensen 1992, and are still producing Hansen designs today.

Henning Koppel (1918-1981) was born in Copenhagen. In the mid to late 1930s, he trained at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and then studied sculpture in Paris at the Académie Rançon. In 1945 he returned to Denmark and started work as a designer for Georg Jensen, where he remained for his whole career. Koppel’s abstract and sculptural work, often considered amongst the most original of Jensen’s designers, helped propel the firm to the forefront of Modern design after World War II. He received the Lunning Prize in 1953 and gold medals in 1951, 1954 and 1957 at the Milan Triennales. His work was of organic, sculptural shape and generally without decoration as he felt the shape spoke for itself. He was most interested in form, not function. He once said “I am sick to death of all that Functionalism nonsense… in my view everything must first and foremost be beautiful”.

Nanna Ditzel (1923-2005) is often referred to as the ‘Grand Dame of Danish Design’. She met her husband Jorgen Ditzel in Copenhagen when they were training to be furniture designers. Nanna studied at the Richards School and then the Kunsthandvaerkerskolen (School of Arts, Crafts and Design). Their collaborative works won awards in 1944 and 1945. In 1946 they were married and in 1950, after the birth of their first child, Nanna began to design jewellery as it enabled her to work from home. In 1954 she became associated with Georg Jensen. In 1956 she won the Lunning Prize and then in 1960 a gold medal at the Milan Triennale. She continued to apply her creative force to textiles, furniture, jewellery and homewares for the remainder of her career.

This process involves the gemstones and diamonds being mixed with the molten gold instead of later individually set. Wales relocated from her London studio to LA in 2015, therefore this bracelet represents the last year of her London productions.

Jean Dinh Van (1927-2022) was born to a French mother and a Vietnamese father. He studied drawing at the Arts Décoratifs, then the art of metalwork at École des Arts Décoratifs, Paris. In 1950, he joined Cartier in Paris like his father before him, where he worked alongside Jeanne Toussaint. His father had trained in Viet Nam in the traditional craft of lacquered furniture. After serving in the French Army in WWI, his father settled in Paris and was hired by Cartier in the 1920s to bring those skills to their items, such as cigarette cases.

Dinh Van became the first ever designer whom Cartier permitted to co-sign their creations for the firm, a collaboration which lasted for a decade. His innovative, sculptural designs brought a unique edge to the company. According to a New York Times article on Van’s work, published 2nd of April 1970, “Cartier bills him as a designer of ‘young’ jewelry — meaning that prices (which start at $30 for a simple ring and are mainly in the less than $500 range) put the collection in the boutique, rather than the multi-carat diamond area of the store”.

The company was in operation in one incarnation or another from 1877. In the 1930s it became the largest cargo carrying concern in the world. The red flag with a lion rampant was the house flag for the Clan Line company. MV Clan Menzies operated both as a passenger ship and also as a cargo ship. Of interest was that the ship hosted the popular “Lima Club”, a social club founded on board while docked near the port in Lima, Peru in August 1964. Thence by descent.

AN ART DECO DIAMOND STRAP BRACELET, CIRCA 1930

AN ART DECO SAPPHIRE AND DIAMOND RING, CIRCA 1925

With millegrain and geometric details throughout, the series of articulated links set with cushion-shaped, old brilliant, single and baguette-cut diamonds, to a concealed clasp, diamonds approx. 11.85 carats total, length 18.5cm, cased by Paul E. Flato, 1 East 57th Street, New York

The central circular cabochon, flanked by tapering lines of calibré-cut sapphires, within a single-cut diamond frame, ring size L½ £800-1,200

£7,000-9,000

Paul Flato (1900-1999) was amongst the most visionary and remarkable American jewellers of the 20th century. Born in Texas to a wealth family, convention never suited him. After an aborted attempt at university, he moved to New York City and began a career in the jewellery world, working for the dealer Edmund Frisch.

Forrestal was the former editor of Vogue magazine and wife of James V. Forrestal, the Secretary of the Navy. Forrestal was well travelled throughout Europe and brough back numerous antique examples which formed the basis of other Flato designs, such as the “wiggly clips” which employed the classic 19th century en tremblant mounting technique.

Although unable to draw, Flato branched out on his own in 1928 opening his first store at 1 East 57th Street. His design talent was apparent very early on, as was his ability to charm and cultivate high society clients.

In 1938, Flato relocated to Hollywood where his flamboyant high profile jewels suited the California social scene as well as the on screen aesthetic. His creations appeared in at least five Hollywood films, for which Flato was credited, worn by Katherine Hepburn, Greta Garbo and Rita Hayworth.

Flato’s chief designer was Adolph Klety who specialised in creating the more formal platinum and diamond jewellery. However, Flato had a talent for spotting talent, even amongst those who were not formal designers. Two of his more unexpected contributing designers were the socialites Millicent Rogers and Josephine Forrestal. Rogers was the heir of the Standard Oil fortune but her personal style and impact on society was legendary. It was her design concept which launched the “puffy heart”. A series of three dimensional heart jewels which became an icon of Flato’s repertoire.

Sadly in the 1940s, it came to light that some unscrupulous business affairs had been occurring behind the beautiful exterior of his work and life. Flato ultimately served jail time in both the infamous Sing Sing prison and in Mexico’s Lecumberri prison. Following his release, Flato relocated to Mexico. In 1970 he opened a high end boutique in Mexico City’s Zona Rosa area and spent the next twenty years based there, creating even more extraordinary jewels. He died in Texas in July 1999.

DIAMOND GUIDE Historically many gemstones have been subjected to a variety of treatments to enhance their appearance. Certain enhancements, such as heating, are commonly used to improve colour or transparency in rubies and sapphires. Emeralds are also frequently treated, usually with oils or resin, for the same purpose. Other methods, including staining, dyeing, coating or irradiation, may have been used on other gemstones including Jade and associated hardstone that may have been bleached (usually in acid), polymer/resin filled or dyed, or a combination of any of these treatments. The international jewellery trade has generally accepted these methods. Heat enhancement of colour is usually permanent, however, in some cases; this may have an impact on the durability of the gemstone. Gemstones that have been oiled may require reoiling after a number of years in order to retain their optimum appearance. It is, in suitable cases, Lyon & Turnbull’s policy to obtain gemmological reports from internationally recognised gemmological laboratories describing certain gemstones sold by Lyon & Turnbull. In the event that Lyon & Turnbull have been given, or have obtained, reports for any lot in the sale

these reports will be mentioned in the catalogue description. However, it is not feasible for Lyon & Turnbull to obtain a gemmological report for each gemstone offered for sale by Lyon & Turnbull. If no report is published in the catalogue prospective buyers should assume that the gemstones may have been enhanced by some method. However, please note that there may not be consensus between different laboratories on the degrees or types of treatment for any particular gemstone. Prospective buyers should be aware that Lyon & Turnbull’s presale estimates assume that gemstones may have been subjected to such treatments. ALL DIMENSIONS, WEIGHTS ARE APPROXIMATE.

DIAMOND GRADING TERMS Where printed in the catalogue, estimated diamond grades for colour and clarity are intended as guides for prospective buyers. Lyon & Turnbull do not guarantee these estimated grades due to the limitations of mounts and settings.

CONDITIONS OF SALE 26.2 FOR BUYERS (UK) These Conditions of Sale and the Saleroom Notices as well as specific Catalogue terms, set out the terms on which we offer the Lots listed in this Catalogue for sale. By registering to bid and/or by bidding at auction You agree to these terms, we recommend that You read them carefully before doing so. You will find a list of definitions and a glossary at the end providing explanations for the meanings of the words and expressions used. Special terms may be used in Catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items (Books, Jewellery, Paintings, Guns, Firearms, etc.) in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing in the Catalogue. These notices and terms will also form part of our terms and conditions of sales. In these Conditions the words “Us”, “Our”, “We” etc. refers to Lyon & Turnbull Ltd, the singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate. “You”, “Your” means the Buyer. Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. acts as agent for the Seller. Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. acts as agent for the Seller. On occasion where Lyon & Turnbull Ltd. own a lot in part or full the property will be identified in the catalogue with the symbol (🄰) next to its lot number.

A. BEFORE THE SALE A1. DESCRIPTIONS OF LOTS Whilst we seek to describe Lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each Lot. Prospective Buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a Lot. Prospective Buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or Estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and only accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the Auctioneer or our employees or agents accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and no warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of Lots, express, implied or statutory, are given. Please note that photographs/images provided may not be fully representative of the condition of the Lot and should not be relied upon as indicative of the overall condition of the Lot. All dimensions and weights are approximate only.

A2. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR DESCRIPTION OF LOTS We do not provide any guarantee in relation to the nature of a Lot apart from our authenticity warranty contained in paragraph E.2 and to the extent provided below. (a) Condition Reports: Condition Reports are provided on our Website or upon request. The absence of a report does not imply that a Lot is without imperfections. Large numbers of such requests are received shortly before each sale and department specialists and administration will endeavour to respond to all requests although we offer no guarantee. Any statement in relation to the Lot is merely an expression of opinion of the Seller or us and should not be relied upon as an inducement to bid on the Lot. Lots are available for inspection prior to the sale and You are strongly advised to examine any Lot in which You are interested prior to the sale. Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers or engineers. Our Condition Report does not form any contract between us and the Buyer. The Condition Reports do not affect the Buyer’s obligations in any way. (b) Estimates: Estimates are placed on each Lot to help Buyers gauge the sums involved for the purchase of a particular Lot. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates are a matter of opinion and prepared in advance. Estimates may be subject to change and are for guidance only and should not be relied upon. (c) Catalogue Alterations: Lot descriptions and Estimates are prepared in advance of the sale and may be subject to change. Any alterations will be announced on the Catalogue alteration sheet, made available prior to the sale. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to make themselves aware to any alterations which may have occurred.

A3. WITHDRAWAL Lyon & Turnbull may, at its discretion, withdraw any Lot at any time prior to or during the sale of the Lot. Lyon & Turnbull has no liability to You for any decision to withdraw.

A4. JEWELLERY, CLOCKS & OTHER ITEMS (a) Jewellery: (i) Coloured gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires and emeralds) may have been treated to enhance their look, through methods such as heating and oiling. These methods are accepted practice but may make the gemstone less strong and/or require special care in future. (ii) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemmological report for any Lot which does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three weeks before the date of

the sale and You pay the fee for the report in advance of receiving said report. (iii) We do not obtain a gemmological report for every gemstone sold in our sales. Where we do get gemmological reports from internationally accepted gemmological laboratories, such reports may be described in the Sale Particulars. Reports will describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but will confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree whether a particular gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment or whether treatment is permanent. The gemmological laboratories will only report on the improvements or treatments known to the laboratories at the date of the report. (iv) For jewellery sales, all Estimates are based on the information in any gemmological report or, if no gemmological report is available, You should assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced. (b) Clocks & Watches: All Lots are sold “as seen”, and the absence of any reference to the condition of a clock or watch does not imply the Lot is in good condition and without defects, repairs or restorations. Most clocks and watches will have been repaired during their normal lifetime and may now incorporate additional/newer parts. Furthermore, we make no representation or warranty that any clock or watch is in working order. As clocks and watches often contain fine and complex mechanisms, Buyers should be aware that a general service, change of battery or further repair work, for which the Buyer is solely responsible, may be necessary. Buyers should also be aware that we cannot guarantee a watch will remain waterproof if the back is removed. Buyers should be aware that the importing watches such as Rolex, Frank Muller and Corum into the United States is highly restricted. These watches cannot be shipped to the USA and only imported personally. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights or keys. (c) Alcohol: may only be sold to persons aged of 18 years and over. By registering to bid, You affirm that You are at least that age. All collections must be signed for by a person over the age of 18. We Reserve the right to ask for ID from the person collecting. Buyers of alcohol must make appropriate allowances for natural variations of ullages, conditions of corks and wine. We can provide no guarantees as to how the alcohol may have been stored. There is always a risk of cork failure and allowance by the Buyer must be made. Alcohol is sold “as is” and quality of the alcohol is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties are given. (d) Books-Collation: If on collation any named item in the sale Catalogue proves defective, in text or illustration the Buyer may reject the Lot provided he returns it within

21 days of the sale stating the defect in writing. This, however, shall not apply in the case of unnamed items, periodicals, autographed letters, music M.M.S., maps, drawings nor in respect of damage to bindings, stains, foxing, marginal worm holes or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text nor in respect of Defects mentioned in the Catalogue, or at the time of sale, nor in respect of Lots sold for less than £300. (e) Electrical Goods: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first. Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. (f) Upholstered items: are sold as “works of art” only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations (items manufactured prior to 1950 are exempt from any regulations). Use of such goods is entirely at the risk of the Buyer and no warranties as to safety of the goods are given. We provide no guarantee as to the originality of any wood/material contained within the item.
