The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

The Edwardian era, spanning roughly 1901 to 1915, is characterised by light, garland-inspired metalwork, fluid lines, and extensive use of platinum. French craftsmen excelled during this period, crafting refined settings that maximised light dispersion through diamonds and pearls.

Jewellers typically combined platinum tops with 18ct yellow gold backings and ear wires to ensure strength while keeping diamond mounts white and unobtrusive. Hand-cut stones, such as old European cut and rose cut diamonds, were set using millegrain bezels and claw settings.

Authentic pieces feature French hallmark stamps on ear wires or mounts, hand-cut diamonds with irregular facets, and platinum-topped yellow gold construction. Detailed hand-worked millegrain edges and leverback or dormeuse fastenings are also strong period indicators.

Their compact size and classic aesthetic make dormeuse drop earrings suitable for both everyday tailoring and formal eveningwear. The neutral tone of platinum paired with warm gold allows them to complement mixed-metal jewellery combinations effortlessly.

Clean gently using warm water, mild soap, and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners. Store separately in a fabric-lined box to prevent the diamonds from scratching other pieces, and inspect leverback mechanisms periodically for secure closure.
