What are vintage diamond clips?

Vintage diamond clips refer to decorative brooches, convertible double clips, and non-pierced earrings featuring diamonds set in platinum or gold. These pieces showcase historical design movements ranging from Edwardian delicacy through Art Deco geometry to mid-century retro styles.

How do I wear clip-on earrings?

Clip-on and screw-fitting earrings secure directly to the earlobe without requiring a pierced hole, making them comfortable for everyday wear. Adjustable screw mechanisms allow the wearer to customise the pressure for a secure and comfortable fit throughout the day.

How do I identify Art Deco pieces?

Art Deco jewellery is distinguished by clean geometric lines, symmetrical motifs, and the prominent use of platinum alongside old cut diamonds. Pieces often incorporate contrasting black onyx, rock crystal, or vibrant calibrated sapphires and emeralds to emphasise the architectural design.

What periods do these items cover?

The available pieces span multiple eras, starting from Victorian and Edwardian items through the 1920s and 1930s Art Deco height. Later examples extend into 1940s retro designs, 1950s mid-century cluster styles, and modernist 1960s creations.
