How do I wear a cocktail ring?

Cocktail rings were originally designed for evening wear and social gatherings where large, visible gestures drew attention to the hand. Today, many wear them as signature everyday pieces on the middle or index finger. Because these rings project further from the finger than standard bands, take care around thick knitwear and active manual tasks to protect the setting.

What is the difference between an antique and a vintage ring?

Antiques generally refer to pieces older than one hundred years, encompassing Victorian and Edwardian craftsmanship. Vintage pieces span the twentieth century, including Art Deco, Retro, and Mid-Century styles. Examining the metal hallmarks, setting techniques, and cut of the stones helps establish the exact era of production.

Are coloured gemstones treated?

Many coloured gemstones undergo traditional thermal treatments to enhance colour saturation and clarity. Certified stones often note whether the material is unheated or bears negligible oil. Reviewing accompanying laboratory reports clarifies the specific origin and treatment history of high-value rubies, emeralds, and sapphires.

How do I care for soft gemstones?

Softer stones such as opals, turquoise, and pearls require gentle maintenance compared to diamonds or rubies. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals, and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or dry heat. Clean them periodically with a damp cloth and store them individually in soft pouches to prevent surface scratching.
