FAQs

The Edwardian period, spanning from roughly 1901 to 1915, is characterised by light, airy designs often utilising platinum and white gold settings to mimic lace, garlands, and ribbons, heavily featuring diamonds and pearls.

Master jewellers of this era frequently paired platinum with yellow gold or silver, utilizing hand-cut old European or rose-cut diamonds set in intricate millegrain and open-work galleries.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-carved platinum work, millegrain edging (tiny beaded borders on the metal), original closure mechanisms such as French wire hooks or secure lever-backs, and old-cut diamonds with distinct culets.

These delicate historical pieces add a layer of understated sophistication to contemporary evening wear or can elevate a tailored daytime ensemble, bridging past and present aesthetics seamlessly.

Store pieces individually in soft pouches or lined presentation boxes to prevent scratching. Clean gently with warm soapy water and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding harsh chemical ultrasonic cleaners which can damage delicate antique settings.
