Buying pre-owned David Webb
David Webb founded his jewelry house in New York in 1948, and the pieces collectors look for today are the bold ones: hammered 18K gold, enamel in strong colors, and animal motifs such as frogs, elephants and big cats, often with gemstone eyes. Every David Webb piece in this collection is listed with its signature, metal, measurements and condition from the piece's record. Era and provenance appear only when they are documented.
What to check on a David Webb piece
- Signature. Genuine pieces are signed "Webb" or "David Webb", usually on the back of a brooch or pendant or inside a bracelet or ring.
- Hallmark. Webb worked mainly in 18K gold and platinum. A lower gold purity on a classic design is a reason to ask questions.
- Enamel. Chips, cracks or lifted enamel are the most common condition issue on older pieces and lower their value. A repair should be disclosed, not discovered.
- Clasps and hinges. A bracelet should close securely, and a hinge should open and close without excess play.

Questions
How can I tell if a David Webb piece is authentic?

Does enamel damage affect the value of David Webb jewelry?
Yes. Chipped, cracked or lifted enamel is the most common condition issue on older Webb pieces and lowers value. Condition is stated on every listing.
Does each listing state the era?
Only when the era is documented in the piece's record. Unknown details are left blank rather than estimated.
