Eeek, this is SUCH a gorgeous piece of antique jewellery. The moment I spotted those gold engraved links, I knew I had to have her.
A striking antique Victorian Albert chain, crafted in warm 10ct gold and designed with beautifully substantial circular links. Each large round link is softly engraved, giving the chain wonderful texture, depth and light-catching detail.
The chain is finished with an engraved T bar and an Albert swivel clasp, both classic features of Victorian watch chains. With its bold silhouette and impressive 29g weight, this is a beautifully made piece with a luxurious feel in the hand and a strong presence when worn.
Rich in character and highly wearable, it can be styled as a statement chain, layered with other antique pieces. A gorgeous investment piece, combining decorative craftsmanship, excellent weight and timeless Victorian design.
Oh dear, I’m in trouble. I’ve slipped this ring on whilst typing this and she is gazing up at me with a gorgeous twinkle in her eye and now I don’t want to take her off.
This is a stunning antique sapphire and diamond trilogy, likely from the Edwardian era. I wasn’t sure what the light blue stone was when I bought this, although I had my suspicions it could well be sapphire. A lot of rigorous examination and testing later and my instincts were right!
She is an oval cut sapphire (approx. 0.90ct) and a beautiful one at that; with a vivid light cornflower blue tone. Two little old mine cut diamonds sit on either side, I just adore how you can see these stones have been hand cut, with their own unique character.
A delicate 18ct gold band completes the ring, leaving all focus on those gorgeous twinkly gems.
This antique garnet ring is cute as a button. She is hallmarked for the year 1868 and is a true Victorian treasure, carrying with her over 150 years of history.
A deep cherry red garnet gemstone sits at the centre of the ring, in a claw setting. Its deep fiery glow will warm you on the darkest of days. Peppered with wear and packed full of character, the chunky band is crafted from 9ct gold, which has turned a glorious darker shade over the years.
She’s petite in size, a UK J 1/2, perfect for slender finders or a pinky ring. Alternatively, get in touch for a resizing quote.
The sparkle coming off this ring is quite something, I’ve been gazing at her in the sunlight for about 10 minutes now, it’s actually quite distracting when I’m supposed to be working.
A stunning antique piece likely from the Edwardian era, with not one but two rows of old cut diamonds which graduate down gently in size. Together, the gemstones create the most twinkly boat-shaped cluster which blinds you with every tiny movement.
The buttery soft 18ct gold band is still a really rich golden colour. It goes without saying that this would make a truly unique engagement ring if you are after something a little different.

“ Imogen was incredibly responsive and helpful - as well as sending us an extra video of the ring we were interested in, she even delivered it in person! It was exactly as seen, if not even more beautiful. Thanks so much - over the moon with my engagement ring, which happens to be the same age as my fiancé! ”
