FAQs

Edwardian jewellery, spanning from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by lighter, more delicate designs, often favouring platinum and silver settings, frequently drawing inspiration from garlands, bows, and lace motifs.

Edwardian chains were predominantly crafted from silver, various carats of gold, and occasionally platinum, often engineered for durability and flexibility in everyday wear.

Authentic pieces typically feature period-appropriate hallmarks, hand-finished links, and traditional clasps such as barrel or bolt rings, alongside characteristic patination.

Antique pieces can be layered with contemporary minimalist jewellery or worn as standalone statement items to add historical texture and contrast to modern outfits.

Antique silver should be stored in a dry, tarnish-resistant pouch away from direct sunlight and cleaned gently with a specialist microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips.
