Modern & Contemporary Jewelry

Post World War II, economic growth, innovation, and newly discovered gem deposits propelled the fine jewelry industry. With high-quality artistry, craftsmanship, gem quality, and design, household makers such as Cartier, Tiffany & Co., and Van Cleef & Arpels continue to capture the attention of collectors.  As the category brings record-breaking prices on the global auction market, Grogan & Company has seen similarly impressive results at our fine jewelry sales.
