How do I wear a pendant brooch?

Many pieces from this era feature both a folding or fixed pin on the reverse and a hidden loop at the top. This dual function allows you to thread a chain through the loop to wear it as a pendant or fasten the pin securely to a lapel as a brooch. When wearing it as a brooch, ensure the safety clasp is secure. As a pendant, pair it with a fine gold chain that complements the metal colour of the piece.

What is the difference between Edwardian and Victorian pieces?

Victorian jewellery generally spans the nineteenth century and often displays heavier, more robust yellow gold designs, sometimes incorporating rich coloured gemstones or sentimental motifs. Edwardian pieces, dating from the early twentieth century, tend towards lighter, airier platinum and high carat gold settings. Both periods overlap significantly in celestial themes, meaning star and crescent motifs appear across late Victorian and Edwardian items with similar grace.

Are these diamonds natural?

The diamonds found in these antique pieces are natural stones mined and cut by hand during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Each stone possesses unique characteristics shaped by the technology of the period. Old cut diamonds display distinct facet patterns that differ from modern brilliant cuts, reflecting candlelight and gaslight with a softer glow.

How should I care for seed pearl jewellery?

Seed pearls are organic gems that require gentle handling to preserve their lustre. Avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals, perfumes, cosmetics, or ultrasonic cleaners which can damage the delicate nacre. Clean them gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing and store them separately from harder gemstones to prevent scratching.
