FAQs

Edwardian jewellery, spanning the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by lightness, elegance, and the prominent use of platinum and yellow gold set with diamonds.

These pieces frequently combined yellow gold or platinum-topped gold settings to maximise the brilliance of diamonds while maintaining structural integrity.

Authentic pieces often feature hand-cut stones such as old European or old mine cuts, specific period hallmarks, and intricate craftsmanship consistent with early twentieth-century manufacturing techniques.

An antique ring can be paired with contemporary minimalist bands for a curated, mixed-era aesthetic that highlights its historical character.

Periodic professional inspection of the settings and gentle cleaning with warm soapy water and a soft brush help maintain the integrity of historic pieces.
