These earrings are simply stunning--even more beautiful in person than in the photos. The French workmanship is exquisite; and the choice of rose gold was inspired, as it adds a warm glow to the sparkly mine cut diamonds. I also wish to add that Julien, the shop owner, carefully and patiently answered each and every question that I posed. I will without doubt be his customer again.

In jewelry, vintage jewelry refers to creations dating back 50 to 100 years. This generally refers to pieces made between the 1920s and 1970s, reflecting the styles and artistic movements of the time.
Art Deco jewelry (1920s-1930s) is distinguished by its geometric shapes, clean lines, and the use of platinum, white gold, old-cut diamonds, and colored gemstones.
They embody the modern elegance of the interwar period and are today highly sought after by collectors and lovers of vintage jewelry.To preserve your antique jewelry, it is advisable to:
-
Clean them gently with a soft cloth.
-
Avoid harsh chemicals and hot water.
-
Store each piece of jewelry separately to avoid scratches.
-
Have them checked regularly by a specialist jeweler.
Proper maintenance ensures the durability and value of your historic pieces.
-
Vintage jewelry (1950s-1980s) often uses brilliant-cut diamonds, sapphire, ruby, emerald, and pearls.
Art Deco pieces also favor onyx, coral, citrine, and bold color contrasts.
These stones reflect the style and trends of each era, making antique jewelry unique pieces.
