FAQs

Victorian jewellery spans the reign of Queen Victoria (18371901), encompassing distinct periods such as the Romantic, Grand, and Aesthetic eras, often featuring symbolic gemstones like rubies and diamonds set in high-karat gold.

These pieces were typically forged from yellow goldsuch as 15ct or 18ct variants common in British jewellery before the standardisation of 9ct and 14ctand set with natural rubies and hand-faceted old cut diamonds.

Authentic pieces often feature period-appropriate hallmarks or assay office stamps, hand-cut gemstones with characteristic irregular facets, and closed or open foil backs consistent with 19th-century goldsmithing techniques.

Antique rings pair effectively with contemporary minimalist bands for a contrasted stacking aesthetic, or can be worn singly as a focal statement piece to highlight historical craftsmanship.

Store antique rings separately in soft-lined boxes to prevent scratching, avoid harsh chemical ultrasonic cleaners, and have settings inspected periodically by a professional jeweller to ensure stone security.
