The Victorian era spans Queen Victorias reign from 1837 to 1901, characterised by romanticism, sentimentality, and distinct stylistic periods encompassing early romantic, grand, and late aesthetic movements.

Jewellery from this period frequently utilised 18-carat yellow gold, silver-topped settings, natural mined gemstones such as sapphires and rubies, and hand-cut diamonds featuring older facets.

Authentic pieces often display hand-carved shoulders, traditional British hallmarks, closed or low-profile settings, and old-cut diamonds with distinct culets and irregular facet proportions.

Antique rings can be worn as standalone statement pieces or stacked with contemporary minimalist bands to create a textured, historically rich aesthetic.

To preserve antique rings, store them individually in soft pouches, avoid harsh ultrasonic cleaners on treated or foil-backed stones, and have the setting checked periodically by a professional jeweller.
