The Edwardian period spans from 1901 to 1915, characterised by delicate craftsmanship, platinum settings, and intricate filigree work influenced by the reign of King Edward VII.

Jewellers during this period frequently utilised yellow gold, platinum-topped gold, and high-carat yellow gold alongside hand-cut diamonds and natural gemstones.

Authentic old cut diamonds feature smaller tables, higher crowns, larger culets, and distinctive facet patterns that display a softer, warmer candlelit sparkle compared to modern brilliant cuts.

Antique pieces add historical character when paired with minimalist contemporary attire or stacked creatively alongside modern bands for a curated look.

Store pieces individually in soft pouches, avoid harsh ultrasonic cleaners on fragile settings, and have settings inspected annually by a professional jeweller to secure the stones.
