As José Rosas explains, this extraordinary clutch bag is believed to be the only one of its kind in the world. Crafted in silver and gold, it is set with 4,732 gemstones including diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, rubies, and amethysts, totalling more than 420 carats.

Combining exceptional craftsmanship with wearable design, the piece exists somewhere between high jewellery and objet d’art: a collector’s dream and a remarkable statement accessory.

The Rosas family will be presenting this spectacular creation during their inaugural participation in Treasure House Fair 2026.

An exceptional platinum and diamond brooch by Lacloche, crafted in the form of an ostrich feather.

As jewellery expert Thomas Holman of Wartski explains, the true beauty of this piece lies not only in its diamonds, but in the artistry of its design. Delicate, light, and remarkably naturalistic, it captures the elegance of a feather with extraordinary precision.

Treasure House Fair Media Ambassador 2026, Brinder Singh Dhatt, highlights another extraordinary feature: despite its impressive scale, the brooch remains surprisingly lightweight, a hallmark of exceptional jewellery design, where beauty, innovation, and wearability exist in perfect balance.

The piece also reflects a pivotal moment in jewellery history. Before 1900, diamonds were typically set in silver and gold, making such open, airy designs difficult to achieve. The widespread adoption of platinum in the early 20th century transformed what was possible, allowing master jewellers such as Lacloche to create jewels of remarkable delicacy, movement, and poetic refinement.

A remarkable quartet of jewels by Lacloche Frères, the celebrated Parisian maison whose creations defined the elegance of the early 20th century.

As jewellery expert Thomas Holman of Wartski explains, pieces such as these sit firmly within the world of the Art Deco period and the Roaring Twenties—an era of heightened glamour, wit, and modernity. One is reminded of Noël Coward and P.G. Wodehouse, of the “Bright Young Things” whose lives and soirées were shaped by precisely this kind of exuberant craftsmanship. Even Coward’s own theatrical world captures the spirit of it perfectly—where a simple accessory might prompt the knowing question: “Is that by Cartier?”—and the equally telling reply, “No, it’s by Lacloche.”

Treasure House Fair Media Ambassador 2026, Brinder Singh Dhatt, highlights how jewels of this calibre would have been worn as statements of effortless sophistication—at once playful and impeccably composed. In an age defined by social movement, travel, and grand entertaining, Lacloche creations embodied a cosmopolitan glamour that moved seamlessly between London, Paris, and the Riviera.

The house itself had established a presence on Bond Street by 1904, while also maintaining salons in Nice and Biarritz. Contemporary tourist guides to the Riviera even record the extent of their clientele, noting grand dukes, kings, queens, and princes among those who passed through their doors, an international elite who all, in one way or another, knew Lacloche.

Lewis Walduck, Treasure House Fair Media Ambassador 2026, visited the Ashmolean Museum to tell the story of this remarkable timepiece.

Donated to the museum in 1894, it remains one of Breguet’s most celebrated creations. Its perpetual calendar is still set to the year 1880, revealing that the clock has not run since the 19th century. Bringing together many of Breguet’s most important innovations, including the repeating mechanism and the tourbillon, it is a remarkable testament to his genius.

Encased in beautifully engine-turned solid silver, this exceptional clock stands as a landmark in the history of horology and a lasting tribute to Breguet’s enduring legacy.

This remarkable 1964 Riva Ariston, presented by Ventura Yachts, is one of Carlo Riva’s original designs and a defining work of Italian craftsmanship.

Built during the post-war years, the Ariston established the design language that would later culminate in iconic models such as the Tritone and Aquarama. With its sculptural mahogany hull, meticulous detailing, and timeless proportions, it embodies the optimism, elegance, and innovation that came to define Italy’s Dolce Vita era.

More than a classic boat, the Riva Ariston is a work of Italian industrial art, an enduring icon that helped shape modern yachting as we know it.

Mark Vandelli and Lewis Walduck share their thoughts on a marvellous Régence French carved giltwood centre table with exceptional Florentine pietra dura top at Mallett Antiques.

This exceptionally rare 14th-century portolan chart is believed to be the earliest obtainable complete map of Europe.

Thought to have been made by a Venetian cartographer, the map offers a fascinating glimpse into how Europeans understood the world centuries ago.

Among its many intriguing details is the appearance of the mythical island of Brazil, shown off the western coast of Europe. Unlike other locations on the chart, the island sits apart from the navigational rhumb lines, reflecting the mystery surrounding this far-off land.

A striking Japanese bronze group depicting three koi carp swimming through stylised swirling waves, presented by Laura Bordignon.

Signed by the celebrated bronze master Ōshima Joun, the sculpture is remarkable for its intricate details; from the finely cast scales to the eyes inlaid with shakudō and gold.

Many visitors mistake the piece for Art Nouveau, captivated by its flowing lines and sense of movement. In fact, it predates the movement entirely, highlighting the remarkable innovation of Japanese metalwork.

This extraordinary piece depicts ‘The Baptism of Christ’ on a panel made from alabaster marble, displayed by Thomas Coulborn & Sons at Treasure House Fair.

Painted around 1620, the work demonstrates Tempesta’s exceptional ability to collaborate with nature itself. Rather than painting over the stone, he embraced its natural markings. Using dark veining to form the banks of the River Jordan, delicate striations to suggest clouds, and the translucent qualities of the alabaster, Tempesta creates a striking sense of depth in the water surrounding Christ.

Alabaster was an exceptionally precious material, entrusted only to artists of the highest calibre. At over 60 centimetres in length, this unusually large and ambitious work is a testament to Tempesta’s extraordinary skill and creativity.

Among this year’s highlights is an exceptional pair of monumental 19th-century Welsh love spoons, presented by Thomas Coulborn & Sons.

Far larger than traditional examples, these remarkable carvings suggest they were created by a sailor during a long voyage for his beloved. Rich in symbolism, every carved detail carries a special meaning. Love hearts represent affection, while diamond motifs symbolise strength and enduring devotion. Delicate wheel carvings appear throughout the spoons, signifying the wheel of life and embodying the maker’s promise to work throughout their lives together in support of his future wife,
