We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Georgian jewellery, produced between 1714 and 1837, frequently featured hand-cut gemstones such as amethysts set in detailed gold or silver mounts. Amethysts were highly prized during this period, often worn as prominent status symbols by the nobility.

Flat-cut amethysts were typically fitted into closed-back collet settings, often lined with metal foil to enhance the depth and brilliance of the gemstones natural colour. The precious metals used were commonly gold, silver, or a combination of both.

Authentic Georgian pieces display hand-faceted flat-cut or rose-cut stones, crimped or rubbed-over collet settings, and enclosed backs rather than open-carat mountings. Original fittings or signs of historical conversion are also standard indicators of age.

Georgian amethyst earrings serve as focal points when paired with contemporary evening wear or minimalist tailoring. Their deep purple hue offers a sophisticated contrast against neutral tones such as ivory, charcoal, or navy.

Because flat-cut Georgian gems often feature closed foil-backed settings, they should never be submerged in liquid or cleaned with ultrasonic devices. Wipe them gently with a dry microfibre cloth and store them in a moisture-free environment.
