FAQs

Art Deco jewellery, prominent during the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by geometric symmetry, clean lines, and a frequent combination of platinum and yellow gold.

Jewellers of this era typically combined durable precious metals like platinum settings for security with yellow gold bands, often featuring hand-cut gemstones.

Old cut diamonds feature smaller tables, higher crowns, and larger open culets compared to modern brilliant cuts, creating a distinctive soft candlelight sparkle.

A vintage ring pairs effortlessly with both contemporary minimalist outfits and layered stacking bands to create a personalised, historically rich aesthetic.

Regular professional checks on the claw settings and gentle cleaning with warm soapy water help maintain the structural integrity and brilliance of antique pieces.
