Joshua & Co. Hosts Private Jewelry Consultations with Christie’s Specialists in Aspen, August 9-10

Aspen, Colorado — Luxury real estate firm Joshua & Co., the exclusive affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, Inc., is pleased to announce private consultations with Christie’s Jewelry specialist Leslie Roskind and Watches specialist Doug Escribano. The event is taking place in Aspen on August 9-10 and is hosted by Joshua & Co. As part of the confidential auction evaluations, both Roskind and Escribano will be accepting entries to Christie’s fall sales.

Christie’s global Watches auctions enjoyed a truly spectacular Spring season, which culminated in the June sale of Important Watches in New York. Reflecting the incredible strength of the watch collecting market, the sale established the highest price ever achieved for any wristwatch sold at Christie’s Americas. Pictured above is a Rolex stainless steel chronograph wristwatch with a black dial that realized US$74,500 at the New York sale.

From the unprecedented US$144 million Collection of Elizabeth Taylor in 2011 to record results achieved in New York, Geneva and Hong Kong in Spring 2012, Christie’s remains the undisputed market leader in jewelry auctions for the 19th year in a row. Several outstanding pieces achieved record prices this season, including rare and beautiful gemstones and unique signed jewels.
