How do I identify an old cut diamond?

An old cut diamond typically exhibits a smaller top table, a visible culet at the base, and larger facets that create a softer pattern of light. These stones were shaped by hand rather than with automated precision, giving each gem a distinct character under low light.

What metals were used in 1920s rings?

Platinum was the predominant choice for fine rings during this decade, valued for its strength and bright white finish. Yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold also appear frequently, often used for the band while platinum secured the diamond.

Are these rings suitable for daily wear?

These antique rings were built for everyday engagement wear, though the delicate settings benefit from careful handling during manual tasks. Regular checks by a jeweller help ensure the hand-formed claws remain secure around the central stone.

How do Art Deco and Edwardian styles differ?

Edwardian designs lean towards lacy, garland-like platinum work with delicate millgrain detailing. Art Deco pieces introduce bold geometric shapes, straight lines, and occasional contrasting sapphire accents.
