The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Jewellery from the 1960s frequently incorporated abstract geometric forms, textured metal finishes, and bold gemstone cuts. Designers of this period moved away from smooth post-war styles toward tactile surfaces, pairing natural quartz gemstones like amethyst with yellow gold.

Mid-century fine jewellery typically featured hallmarked gold, commonly 9ct or 18ct, set with natural semi-precious or precious gemstones. Lever-back and screw-back fastenings were widely employed alongside claw settings to secure pear-cut or faceted stones.

Authentic UK pieces from this era bear official sponsor and purity hallmarks on the ear wires or findings, indicating gold fineness such as 375 for 9ct. Construction details including hand-finished texture work and specific clip mechanisms like lever-backs also help determine era authenticity.

Gemstone drop earrings complement both formal attire and tailored modern wear. The contrast between warm gold tones and deep violet stones makes them suitable for pairing with neutral necklines to accentuate the drop length.

Clean gently using lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush around the stone settings. Store separately in a fabric-lined box to prevent the gold and faceted amethysts from coming into contact with harder gemstones.
