How do I care for antique sapphire jewellery?

Clean these pieces gently with warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemical dips that might damage older settings or pearls. Store each item separately in a lined box to prevent diamonds from scratching the softer gold or sapphire surfaces. Have settings checked periodically by a professional jeweller to ensure the claws hold the stones firmly, particularly in delicate Edwardian and Art Deco mountings.

Are these sapphires heat treated?

Many stones from this era are natural and unheated, though specific provenance and laboratory certificates will detail the exact origin, such as Ceylon, Burma, or Kashmir. Examination under magnification reveals natural inclusions that help gemmologists determine whether a sapphire has undergone thermal enhancement.

What is the difference between Victorian and Art Deco pieces?

Victorian designs often feature yellow or 15ct and 18ct gold with organic motifs, starbursts, or daisy clusters that highlight romantic sentiments. Gemstones in these earlier items frequently utilise old mined cuts. Art Deco pieces embrace geometric symmetry, platinum settings, and white gold, favouring clean lines and structured cluster arrangements that reflect 1920s and 1930s aesthetics.

Can I wear an antique sapphire ring every day?

Sapphires rate nine on the Mohs hardness scale, making them durable enough for daily wear on a ring finger. However, older settings require mindful care during heavy manual tasks. Consider removing rings before gardening or exercising to protect delicate Edwardian or Victorian gold and platinum claws from undue stress.
