The French Jewel Box presents the ‘Most Desirable Jewels in the World’

For Christmas 2004 we have produced this very special catalogue of truly beautiful antique jewellery for presentation to our most

valued clients . The collection epitomises the style, romance, craftsmanship and true joy that the best antique jewellery always

delivers. We understand that many of our clients require a particularly special gift at Christmas and are confident that in this

collection you will find just the right thing. We are excited to reveal the highlights of a yearlong search for exquisite pieces to tempt

and delight you. We look forward to showing you these fabulous pieces in our Melbourne showroom but if you have something

particular in mind which is not shown in this catalogue please do not hesitate to call us as we cannot illustrate all of our ever changing

stock of antique jewellery.

Thank you for your support throughout the year, we wish you and your families a safe and happy Christmas and New Year, and please

call in to see us when next you are close to the Block Arcade.

Mary-Louise, Louise, Sue and Monica.
