Vintage Jewellery

Jewellery is typically considered 'vintage' when it's between 50 and 150 years old. 

Vintage jewellery comes in many styles that reflect the era in which it was made. For example, vintage pieces from the roaring 1920s will have geometric shapes, known as 'art deco', and jewellery from the 1950s-60s is characterised by glistening diamonds and opulent pearls, which was popular vintage costume jewellery from the 'old Hollywood' era.    

Anything older than 150 years is considered 'antique' jewellery, such as Victorian-era pieces distinguished by intricate filigree patterns and romantic motifs.

When shopping for a vintage jewellery design, there are a few important things to consider. Materials determine quality, so it's important to choose pieces crafted from premium, long-lasting materials, such as sterling silver and 14K/18K solid gold.

Authenticity is another key thing to keep an eye out for. Look for unique pieces with distinctive designs rather than cheap copies - such as our exclusive and original vintage-inspired jewellery! You can also check for hallmarks and provinces. Authentic vintage jewellery will have hallmarks (the maker's marks) and/or province documentation to confirm its true vintage.

If you're choosing true-vintage jewellery, ensure it's in good condition. Keep an eye out for damage, such as scratches and missing gemstones, and evaluate whether it can be restored or not before making any commitments.

Finally, personal preference should be at the front of your mind when shopping for vintage jewellery. Don't invest in a piece just because it has the novelty of being vintage. Choose styles you genuinely like and will wear to ensure you get the most out of your purchase!

If you want to keep your vintage fine jewellery in tip-top condition, there are a few important care tips to follow.

Regular cleaning will keep your vintage jewellery looking brand new. Use a soft, dry polishing cloth to gently remove dirt, stains, and oils. If your pieces are especially delicate, consider choosing a professional jewellery cleaning service.

To prevent accidental damage, always remove your jewellery before any exercise and before coming into contact with harsh chemicals, such as household cleaning products or chlorinated swimming pool water.

When you aren't wearing your pieces, it's important to store them safely to prevent misplacement and unintentional damage. Keeping your jewellery in a secure box or on a sturdy jewellery stand, such as our ring stands, is a great way to keep them in good condition and out of harm's way.

Following these best care practices will keep your special piece looking 10/10 for many more years!
