JAR Imperial Topaz Earrings for November

By Erika W.

Happy Birthday November Pricescopers!

These Imperial Topaz earrings have been around the (auction) block. They first sold for $710,000 in 2006 as a part of Christie’s larger sale of Ellen Barkin’s jewelry collection from former husband Ron Perelman. The pair visited Christie’s again in October 2010 where they sold for $650,500. We imagine this remarkable pair of earrings designed by the exclusive and reclusive Joel Arthur Rosenthal or simply, JAR, will find their way back to the luxury auction house once again.
