This week I started to get my Sherman Jewellery collection out of storage. During 2017 I stopped buying as the prices shot up, people stopped buying and there was not much interesting pieces offered up for sale.
Later this fall I found some new items and continue to see more so I need to look again at my collection so far to organize it properly. The first bracelet pictured is one of my most favourite bracelets, and when they come in colours they can be spectacular.
The first bracelet is signed.
The second picture are 2 bracelets which are not signed sherman, but you can see the unsigned clear is identical to the signed piece. The aurora boreilis of that bracelet in the second photo was a piece I got from Paris, France and is quite spectacular with the boreilis stones with a purple hue to them, not sure if the base is purple which gives it its definite purple glow in all types of lighting. Because they were unsigned I got them at a good price. No one should pay premium prices for unsigned Sherman. That makes good buying sense. I had the chance to buy a very nice rare red one this last year from someone on this site but after the seller agreed to sell to me she changed her mind as she decided she wanted full price !~
Three sparkling beauties, these Sherman bracelets are just gorgeous!
Oh Phil, I am so glad to hear that you are bringing out your collection! I love, love that purple one or lavender... Did Sherman put out many unsigned ones? I thought the one in the second photo was the same on in the first photo! The end clasp is a little different but all three are gorgeous!
Love them PhilD! Just gorgeous :-) )
Thanks Newfld for the nice comment !~

Thank you so much aura and VioletOrange !
Very nice.Great call on the plate with the Scottish thistles.Thanks
Thanks shareurpassion for your kindness always. Sherman did put out a lot of unsigned pieces although they should go cheaper but lately prices have shot up and they are not getting picked up as much.
Thanks nutsabotas6 and TassieDevil for the comments !~
I would not say lots of unsigned exactly Eileen, but you have to watch as there are people out there I just saw this week trying to attribute a brooch to Sherman when it sure is not one by Sherman. I bought the purplish one here because it is quite striking for an AB piece. Also here the AB piece has 2 different navette stones which I never seen before in this exact style which Sherman made a lot of, but never seen another maker using this style. What should I call this ad ??
