• Hallmarks/stamps: Stamped 15CT.

Victorian jewellery spans the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901, generally divided into early Romantic, mid Grand, and late Aesthetic periods, often featuring sentimental motifs like stars, hearts, and serpents.

Jewellery from this era frequently utilised 9ct, 15ct, and 18ct yellow gold, reflecting British standard gold purities of the time, often paired with natural mined diamonds, seed pearls, and gemstones.

Authentic pieces typically display hand-cut diamonds such as old mine or rose cuts, handmade settings with closed or open backs characteristic of the period, and hallmarks indicating gold purity.

Pairing historical pieces with modern minimalist clothing creates a striking contrast, while displaying antique jewellery in a velvet-lined display box adds heritage charm to a dressing table.

Store delicate items separately in lined boxes to prevent scratches, clean gently with a soft cloth moistened with warm soapy water, and avoid harsh chemical ultrasonic cleaners which can damage historical settings.
