Rosalynn Carter Provenance Jewelry Collection of 16 Items at Brunk Auctions

1. Sterling silver earrings, pair 1

This lot includes three pairs of sterling silver earrings; this is the first of those pairs as enumerated in Brunk Auctions’ Lot 748. The listing gives no maker, hallmark, weight, or condition notes for this pair, only that it is “sterling” within the lot description. Images for the lot are provided (the public listing shows at least Images 2–9), though captions and close‑up hallmarks are not included in the captured text.

2. Sterling silver earrings, pair 2

The second sterling silver pair is likewise listed simply among the “three pairs of sterling silver earrings” that comprise part of the 16‑piece grouping from the Estate of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter. The auction entry repeats the provenance line verbatim: “Provenance: The Estate of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter.” No additional provenance paperwork, maker names, or condition statements were supplied in the listing capture.

3. Sterling silver earrings, pair 3

The third pair completes the sterling‑silver trio identified in Lot 748 and is catalogued without dimensions or hallmarks in the captured listing. Brunk Auctions’ live online entry (powered by Bidsquare) shows multiple images for the lot but the captured UI text contains no condition descriptions beneath the “## Condition” headings. As delivered in the sale, these three sterling pairs formed part of the mixed ladies’ jewelry lot that realized $750.

4. Fashion earrings, pair 1

Also included are three pairs of fashion earrings; this is the first listed fashion pair. The catalog groups these as “fashion earrings,” indicating costume or non‑precious metal construction in the listing language, but the entry does not clarify materials, closures, or era. The live listing format repeats navigational and bidding UI elements (e.g., “Two ways to bid:”) while offering visual documentation across nine images.

5. Fashion earrings, pair 2

The second pair of fashion earrings is recorded in the lot text exactly as “three pairs of fashion earrings.” No maker attribution or condition note appears next to this item in the captured Brunk/Bidsquare copy. The lot was offered during the Americana sale held in Brunk’s Asheville sale room and online, and the aggregate lot sold for $750 against an estimate of $200–$400.

6. Fashion earrings, pair 3

The third and final fashion earring pair rounds out the costume jewelry component of the grouping, listed alongside enamel brooches and bracelets. The listing preserved the simple enumeration without measurements or photographic captions; the captured images (Image 2 of 9 through Image 9 of 9) suggest visual documentation exists but the exported UI text lacks descriptive metadata. The provenance line in the catalog is concise: “The Estate of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter.”

7. Enamel brooch, piece 1

Two enamel brooches are specified in the lot; this entry represents the first enamel brooch. The Brunk Auctions text lists it verbatim as “two enamel brooches,” with no further typology, maker, or condition remarks included in the available capture. Given the lot’s presentation as mixed ladies’ jewelry, these brooches likely contribute to the vintage costume subset that drove collector interest in similar Americana estate groupings.

8. Enamel brooch, piece 2

The second enamel brooch completes the pair noted in the lot description; both are included under Lot 748 and fall under the umbrella provenance from the Carter estate. The listing’s structure shows placeholders for condition and shipping information (headings appear) but the captured content does not fill those fields. As listed, both brooches form part of a 16‑item grouping that was offered live and online via Brunk Auctions and Bidsquare.

10. Gold tone bangle, bangle 2

The second gold tone bangle is similarly recorded without maker or assay marks in the listing capture; it forms part of the trio described in Lot 748. The Brunk Auctions entry emphasizes provenance — the repeated line “Provenance: The Estate of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter” — but does not elaborate on how these bracelets entered the Carter estate inventory. The hammer result for the entire lot was $750, above the low estimate but modest for a named‑estate grouping.

11. Gold tone bangle, bangle 3

The third gold tone bangle completes the set of three included in the lot and, like the others, is catalogued with minimal descriptive text. The file available in the auction UI includes multiple images but the captured listing truncated image captions and the first image was not shown in the export. The listing’s bid increments table was visible to bidders online, with ranges from $0–$25 up to $100,000–$10,000, illustrating the platform’s standardized increment steps for live bidding.

12. Jewel multi‑strand bracelet

One “jewel multi strand bracelet” is cited in the lot description and stands apart from the fashion beaded bracelet also offered. The listing uses the phrase “one jewel multi strand bracelet” verbatim; however, no gem identifications, strand counts, clasp type, or condition notes were captured in the public copy. As with all pieces in Lot 748, the provenance is stated simply as the Carter estate without accompanying documentation in the captured text.

13. Fashion beaded bracelet

The lot includes “one fashion beaded bracelet,” recorded in the Brunk listing as part of the 16 pieces. No era, bead material (glass, plastic, or semi‑precious), or measurements are provided in the captured description, and the “## Condition” headings in the UI are empty of content. The lot was offered in the Americana featuring the Estate of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter sale and sold for $750 in total.

14. Beaded silver tone anklet

Included in the lot inventory is “one beaded silver tone anklet,” a distinctive accessory in the mixed grouping. The listing again provides only the simple enumeration, and the captured text contains no maker marks, length, or clasp description for the anklet. Payment options for bidders on the lot were listed (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Diners, Discover, JCB, Union Pay), confirming online transactional support for the live sale.

15. Chinese porcelain pendant

One “Chinese porcelain pendant” appears in the lot description, an item that may hold design or cultural interest beyond typical costume jewelry categories. The auction copy preserves that exact phrasing but offers no provenance narrative specific to the pendant nor photographs’ captions in the exported text. Brunk Auctions’ catalog page includes an “Inquire” heading and a support contact (support@brunkauctions.com) for registration issues, though the public capture did not provide extended provenance documentation for this pendant.

16. Sterling ring

The final item enumerated is “one sterling ring,” completing Lot 748’s 16 items. The listing records the ring as sterling in the same concise style used across the lot, but does not include size, hallmarks, maker, or condition notes in the captured material. Lot 748 was offered live and online by Brunk Auctions (117 Tunnel Road, Asheville, NC) as part of the Americana sale; the lot carried an estimate of $200–$400 and sold for $750, a result that highlights how named‑estate provenance—here stated as “The Estate of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter”—can confer added market appeal even when catalog descriptions are minimal.
