Concept Gallery March 4 Auction Includes Vintage Pearl Necklaces, Pendants

Concept Gallery conducted an Online+ auction on March 4, 2026, opening at 8:00 a.m. CST, presenting a catalog that the site links as View Catalog (513) and promoting "Over 500 lots" across fine art, modern design, jewelry, antiques and books. The sale, run on bid.conceptgallery.com and powered by Bidsquare technology, included multiple jewelry lots explicitly described in the house copy, among them vintage pearl necklaces and pearl pins and pendants.

The catalog’s featured-item slate paired wearable jewelry with museum-caliber works: listings name a "Pair of 18k Emerald and Diamond Earrings" and "2 Hermes Enamel Charniere Bracelets" alongside paintings such as Gyula Kosztolanyi-Kann’s oil Hid a Patak Felett and sculptures and works on paper by Enrico Glicenstein. The site’s promotional text reads, "Over 500 lots of Fine Art, Modern Design, Jewelry, Antiques, Books and more, with special sections of Haitian Art, Hungarian Art, Hermes scarves, Japanese woodblock prints, plus sculptures, paintings and works on paper by the important Polish-American artist Enrico Glicenstein."

Specifics for the pearl lots were limited in the publicly available excerpts. The auction page notes that it "lists lot descriptions, approximate measurements and metal marks (for example, an 18" " but the example is truncated in the online listing. No lot numbers, presale estimates, or gemological certificates for the vintage pearl necklaces and pendants were included in the provided copy, leaving provenance, pearl type and condition unresolved in the catalog excerpts.

Bidders faced notable fee and bidding mechanics in the house materials. The buyer’s premium appears twice in conflicting forms: a Buyer’s Premium table entry shows "$0 | 27.00" while an "IMPORTANT NOTICE" on the bidding platform states, "A premium of 24% will apply to all property sold at bid.conceptgallery.com, to be paid by buyer as part of the purchase price." The listing also includes a bid increment schedule beginning at $0 with $10 increments, rising through $100 increments at $1,000 and $10,000 increments at $100,000. Phone and absentee bidding language is explicit: "Phone & absentee bids are available until 5pm the day before the sale (applies to Live Sales only, no phone/absentee bids for Online-Only sales)."

Conditions of sale emphasize buyer responsibility and risk: "All property is sold 'AS IS' and neither we nor the Consignor makes any guarantees, warranties or representations, expressed or implied, with respect to the property," and the catalog warns that "Property not picked up within one (1) month may be re-auctioned or resold without further notice to the buyer, and payment will be forfeited." The listing further states, "Merchandise will be packed and transported by the purchaser at their own risk and expense."

Concept Gallery, based in Pittsburgh, PA, lists contact info for follow up as info@conceptgallery.com and +1 4122429200. For pearl buyers seeking provenance, measurements, metal marks and any certificates, the auction house’s full PDF catalog and the untruncated Conditions of Sale remain the essential documentation to review before settling a bid; clarity on whether the 24% or 27% premium applies is likewise necessary to assess total buyer cost.
