How do I identify a 1930s ring?

Look for characteristic Art Deco geometric patterns, hand-cut diamonds like old European cuts, and platinum settings. Maker marks and stylistic details can also help confirm the period of manufacture.

Are these rings suitable for daily wear?

Platinum is an extremely durable and dense metal, making these rings well-suited for everyday use. Regular checks by a jeweller help ensure the stones remain secure in their settings.

What stones are common besides diamonds?

Blue sapphires, rubies, and emeralds frequently accompany diamonds in cluster and multi-stone configurations. Coloured gemstones from specific origins like Burma are especially sought after by collectors.

Can platinum rings be resized?

Most platinum rings can be adjusted by a skilled jeweller experienced in working with vintage metals. The process involves adding or removing a small section of metal from the band.
