What does diamond certification involve?

Gemological laboratories examine mounted or loose stones to determine exact carat weight, colour grade, clarity characteristics and cut proportions. This documentation provides objective verification of the diamond's physical attributes. Independent certificates protect buyers by confirming that stones match historical descriptions and retain their original properties.

How do I care for antique diamond jewellery?

Clean platinum and gold settings gently using warm water, mild detergent and a soft brush to remove everyday oils. Avoid harsh ultrasonic cleaners, particularly when dealing with pearls or softer gemstones. Store pieces individually in fabric-lined boxes to prevent metal scratching and protect delicate pearl strands from abrasive contact.

How can I identify an Art Deco diamond ring?

Art Deco rings frequently feature geometric motifs, symmetric patterns, strong linear layouts and delicate platinum millegrain work. They often combine diamonds with calibre-cut sapphires or emeralds. The aesthetic rejects Victorian ornamentation in favour of clean architectural lines associated with the 1920s and 1930s.
