I have said in the past that Erika Hult de Corral is one of the few designers in the world of Mexican silver jewelry for whom I will cross the 1980 threshold without second thoughts. I believe that her talent and the quality of her work combined with the fact that she is one of the few known female contributors to the country’s 20th c. Silver Renaissance more than warrants the… “transgression”...

Gianni Versace's 1991 Pop Art collection with the Andy Warhol prints is considered by most to be the best of his work. (In fact, his sister, Donnatella reprised it---along with the original models--this past season.) The jewelry was basically done for the runway and is very scarce. We were very pleased to get this necklace from the original show. It is a single strand that has a second strand attached mid way on either side. When pulled straight, the necklace measures 19" (48.6 cm). It i...
