About the Item
Portuguese Silver Plate associated with Cardinal D. João Cosme da Cunha (1715–1783)
A fine Portuguese silver plate measuring 26 cm in diameter and weighing 591 grams, dating from the 18th century and associated with Cardinal D. João Cosme da Cunha (1715–1783). Crafted with understated elegance, the plate reflects the refined taste of the Portuguese ecclesiastical elite of the period.

This piece is an exceptional example of Portuguese silverwork from the period, uniting historical significance with masterful craftsmanship. Its provenance linked to a leading figure of the Portuguese Church adds to its rarity and collectible value, making it a distinguished addition to any collection of antique silver.

Portuguese Gold Ring with Turquoise Pearls and Rose-Cut Diamonds
Located in Lisboa, PT
A sculptural and finely crafted Portuguese ring, executed in 800/1000 yellow gold, featuring two cabochon turquoise pearls nestled within an ornate basket-form setting. This architectural mounting elevates the gemstones above the finger in a deliberate, elegant arrangement, framed by a continuous border of 29 rose-cut diamonds.
Each turquoise pearl displays a soft, natural hue and rounded form, while the surrounding diamonds catch the light with a gentle sparkle, typical of rose-cut stones. The design’s raised "basket" construction not only enhances visual depth but also evokes early 20th-century romanticism, reminiscent of Belle Époque and Edwardian stylistic influences.
Origin: Portugal (hallmarks: Carneiro, Pintassilgo, Coruja – re-marked)
Materials: 800‰ yellow gold, turquoise (pearls), rose-cut diamonds
Stones: 2 turquoise cabochon pearls, 29 rose-cut diamonds
Total weight: 10.63 grams
Ring size: Approx. EU 52 / US 6
Period: Likely early to mid-20th century
Condition: Excellent vintage condition; all stones present and secure
Design notes: A sophisticated interplay between gemstone color and antique diamond sparkle, in a distinctive elevated “basket” structure
