Victorian jewellery spans several distinct phases corresponding to Queen Victorias reign, often characterised by sentimental motifs, rich yellow gold, and hand-cut gemstones reflecting romanticism and industrial progress.

Jewellery from this period predominantly utilised carat gold, commonly 18ct or lower, paired with hand-cut diamonds shaped by lapidaries before modern brilliant-cut standards were established.

Authenticity is assessed through hallmarks indicating metal purity, asymmetrical old-cut facets characteristic of hand-polishing, and closed-back settings or original hand-wrought prongs.

Pairing historical rings with minimalist modern bands creates a balanced juxtaposition that highlights the unique facets and warm metal tones of period pieces.

Preserve antique pieces by storing them in soft pouches away from hard items, avoiding harsh ultrasonic cleaners, and having settings inspected periodically by a specialist conservator.
