Victorian jewellers predominantly used 15ct and 18ct yellow gold, later incorporating 9ct gold towards the end of the century. Gemstones such as chrysoberyl, garnet, diamond, and pearls were frequently set in hand-crafted collet or claw settings, often enhanced with intricate wirework and granulation.

Authentic Victorian pieces can be identified through hallmarks indicating metal purity, the presence of hand-cut or hand-polished gemstones, and construction techniques such as closed-back settings or hand-forged shanks. Microscopic examination of wear patterns and bezel construction also helps distinguish genuine antique work from modern reproductions.

Antique rings bring historical texture and individual character to contemporary wardrobes, pairing effectively with minimalist modern attire to let the craftsmanship stand out. They can also be displayed on decorative ring trays or miniature pedestals as sculptural objects of art within a study or dressing room.

Antique jewellery requires gentle care, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, ultrasonic machines, and steam cleaning which can damage delicate stones or historic settings. Clean pieces gently with a soft, damp microfibre cloth and store them individually in lined boxes away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Victorian jewellery spans the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901) and is typically divided into three distinct periods: Romantic, Grand, and Aesthetic. It often features symbolic motifs, high-karat yellow gold, and distinctive gemstone settings that reflect the changing sentiments and technological advancements of the 19th century.
