How do I care for 18ct emerald jewellery?

Emeralds are a softer gemstone relative to diamonds and require gentle cleaning using soft cloths rather than harsh ultrasonic devices. Store pieces individually in padded boxes to prevent scratching against other items in your collection.

Are these pieces made from solid 18ct gold?

The items listed utilise solid 18ct yellow or white gold for their primary structures, clasps, and mountings. Testing hallmarks verifies the gold purity standard across rings, necklaces, and brooches from this era.

What periods do these items represent?

The selection includes Edwardian, Art Deco, Retro Modern, and Mid-Century eras spanning from 1900 through the 1960s. Design characteristics such as geometric platinum mountings or bold yellow gold tank frames help identify specific decades.

Can I wear an emerald ring every day?

While 18ct gold provides a durable setting, emeralds possess natural inclusions that make them sensitive to heavy impacts. Routine daily wear is suitable with mindful handling, though removing rings during physical labour preserves the stones.
