Design Era

Design & Historical Context

The term "antique" refers to something that is more than 100 years old, and this includes jewelry that was created and used over several decades or eras. Antique jewelry can include pieces from a variety of different time periods, such as the Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, and Art Deco periods.

Each of these periods is characterized by its own unique style and artistic movements, and antique jewelry from these periods is often highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Georgian jewelry, for example, is known for its intricate detailing and use of precious materials such as gold and diamonds, and is often influenced by the Baroque, Rococo, and Neoclassical styles.

Victorian jewelry, on the other hand, is known for its intricate detailing and use of precious materials such as gold and diamonds, and is often influenced by the Romantic and Gothic styles. Edwardian jewelry is characterized by its delicate and intricate detailing, and is often influenced by the Art Nouveau, the Arts and Crafts movement, and the Belle Époque.

Antique jewelry is often highly collectible and is valued for its unique style, craftsmanship, and historical significance. It can be found at antique shops, vintage stores, and online marketplaces.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Silver: The Metal of Elegance and Versatility

Silver, known for its bright, reflective luster, is one of the most beloved and widely used precious metals in the world. This versatile metal has been cherished for thousands of years, not only for its beauty but also for its malleability, making it ideal for crafting intricate and delicate jewelry designs.

Historically, silver has been associated with the moon and considered a symbol of purity, clarity, and protection. Ancient civilizations, from the Egyptians to the Greeks and Romans, valued silver for its beauty and used it to create coins, jewelry, and religious artifacts. In many cultures, silver is also believed to have healing properties, often used in amulets and talismans to ward off negative energy.

In modern jewelry, silver is prized for its affordability, versatility, and timeless appeal. Sterling silver, an alloy of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper), is the standard used in high-quality jewelry. Its durability and bright, reflective surface make it an excellent choice for a wide range of designs, from minimalist pieces to ornate creations. Silver can be polished to a high shine or given a matte, oxidized, or antiqued finish to suit various styles.

Silver is more than just a metal; it is a symbol of elegance, flexibility, and understated luxury. Its enduring popularity and wide-ranging applications make it a staple in jewelry that can complement any look, from casual to formal, with timeless grace.

Enhance the Beauty of Your Jewelry with Proper Care

Wearing your jewelry is a special way to express yourself and add a touch of personal style to any look. However, to ensure your jewelry remains in pristine condition, there are a few simple steps you need to take to keep it looking its best.

General Care Instructions:

Remove jewelry when showering or bathing, especially when at the beach, in the sea or in chlorinated water.
Avoid wearing jewelry while doing physical work such as housekeeping, gardening or exercise.
Storing your jewelry in a dry and cool place will help protect it from moisture, dirt and dust.
Keeping it away from harsh chemicals such as bleach, ammonia and chlorine will help to avoid discoloration and damage.
Cleaning your jewelry regularly with a soft cloth will help to keep it looking shiny and new.
Avoid exposing your jewelry to extreme temperatures, such as leaving it in direct sunlight or near a heater, as this can cause damage.
Handle your jewelry carefully and avoid dropping it, as this can cause the stones to loosen or the metals to scratch.
Finally, if possible, have your jewelry professionally checked and serviced. This will ensure that any potential problems are spotted and fixed before they become worse.

By following these tips, you can enjoy your precious jewelry for many years to come.
