My friend and I happened by this store: www.jjmarco.com The workmanship is good and a number of their pieces are quite lovely. Question -- do you see a resemblance to Buccellati?

I see a resemblance in some of the work:  the open work.  One can see that J.J.Marco does some similar honeycombs of gold.  It does not, however, produce any of the rings or bracelets that Buccellati does in which a kind of sunburst in gold appears on a silver/white metal or vice versa and those, along with he honeycombs,  are among the pieces that I consider to be the most singularly Buccellati.

I'd love one, too, Harriet!  I don't think one is in my budget, however!

We'll just admire them as works of art.

And this necklace. The necklace in particular looks like something I'd love to wear to the Opera!

Those are definitely my favorite pieces from the site!

Musey,
There is a collection of very pretty flower rings that are not listed. I like that necklace too. I'm going to see the owner (Mark) about some custom work.

I had a local B&M bring this Marco bracelet in for me last year. It was very nice, but in the end I decided I wanted a brushed gold
instead of the polished. The catalog had some yummy stuff in it though!!

I talked with him about a brushed finish and he said that wouldn't be a problem.

Wonderful choice, musey!  I'd take one, too, but I don't seem to wear the necklaces I already own and I am afraid that my neck is soon going to "go" (as in the book by Nora Ephron).  I should wear the necklaces I own while I still can!
