Estate and Antique or Vintage Jewelry
Researching and shopping for vintage or antique jewelry has other rewards besides the acquisition of a vintage diamond ring or antique wedding band or antique earrings. Of course, there is the thrill of the hunt: who wouldn't want to brag about the captured prey? In addition, just learning to make distinctions between antique and vintage can be a rewarding experience.
Generally, most authorities consider that to be an engagement ring sets, or an antique wedding band, the object must be at least 100 years old or more. The term vintage may be applied to jewelry which is evocative of a specific era, such as Art Deco or the Victorian era. So before shopping, it's always a good idea to learn a little about the stylistic characteristics which are indicative of that specific time.
In addition to having a remarkable and appealing experience while searching for an antique diamond engagement ring or vintage wedding band, there is the added prestige of participating in the new and vital area called passion investing, regarding antique or vintage jewelry. What guarantees that this is different from all other types of investments are three aspects: scarcity, history and legacy.
As with the paintings of artists from the past, antique jewelry may be unique. There may be similar antique rings which share general characteristics, such as milgrain or engraved shanks or have exceptionable workmanship. However, the antique or vintage diamond ring which is in consideration will be distinctive, even inimitable. And as such, these will be scarce.
Moreover, whichever historical period catches the eye, there will be a history connected to that style of antique jewelry. For example, jewelers during the late Victorian period used diamonds and bright, feminine gemstones such as sapphire or peridot. Art Nouveau jewelry, inspired by René Lalique or Louis Comfort Tiffany, will have natural designs using flowers or butterflies, often worked in enamel. The later Art Deco period, which was influenced by modern art, showed geometric designs, sharp lines and bright colors. Women wore long necklaces and many bracelets at one time. Usually, these pieces are designated by the term vintage jewelry because they are evocative of a particular era.
Finally, there is the issue of legacy. What will this antique diamond engagement ring mean for future generations? Will this antique wedding band or sapphire ring or antique pair of earrings remain in the family, passed down from mother to daughter or son? Besides the emotionality connected with becoming engaged, will there be the beginning of a tradition for the new family being created?
Ultimately, by seeking out and buying an antique or vintage diamond engagement ring, a couple expresses optimism and hopefulness that their future will be as long-lived as the antique or vintage diamond jewelry they have chosen! As John Keats wrote in 1818, "A thing of beauty is a joy forever…" How true that is, when applied to the antique, vintage or estate jewelry we choose to celebrate our most meaningful moments.
