The top of the earrings is embellished with diamonds. The brilliant-cut gems are staged in platinum, with the lines of the gold droplets dividing the diamond stripes.
Granulated “shaggy” gold along makes these earrings stand out. And sparkly diamonds, generously adorning the piece, elevate the look to the top of luxury and glamour.

    About Vintage Jewelry

    Vintage jewelry is something we can talk about for days. For such a big subject with multiple aspects to discuss, here we’d like to focus on the most important parts of it.

    So, what is vintage jewelry? Why is it so appealing? And what’s the best way to buy your vintage jewelry online?

    In the industry, different sellers and makers have different opinions on the time period when vintage jewels were made. Here at Nadine Krakov, we consider vintage as anything being made between 50 and 100 years ago. Therefore, all jewelry produced from 1930 to 1980 is called vintage.

    This time frame comprises Art DecoRetro and Mid-Century styles. Why do we love vintage jewelry so much? It’s all about the quality of making and, of course, the aesthetic.

    Vintage pieces were mostly made by hand or at least hand-finished while modern jewels are mainly cast. As the lifestyle back in the days was much slower, jewelry makers literally had more time in their hands. Skilled craftsmen honed their craft and reputation. They couldn’t allow a flimsy, poorly done piece to ruin that. Mass market jewelry didn’t exist at that time. Each little detail of a piece was executed thoughtfully and with the high quality in mind.

    How to shop your vintage jewelry online? Ask questions about maker’s marks and hallmarks, request a video of the piece and show it to your jeweler. The easiest way to be confident with your purchase is to find a trustworthy, reputable seller. And if you are happened to be in Beverly Hills area, just google “vintage jewelry near me,” find Nadine Krakov Collection store and stop by for a good chat with a sip of champagne.
