Launching her career in the 1860s, when business and jewelry manufacture were male-only, Charlotte Newman produced sought-after jewels from her shop on London's Savile Row. A skilled goldsmith, her specialty was Archaeological Revival styles. She had a knack for predicting trends and signed her pieces "Mrs N". They're extremely sought after, and we finally found a piece! The reticulation and amethysts are a fresh take on an ancient style.
