About vintage jewelry
Vintage jewelry is something we can talk about for days. For such a
big subject with the multiple aspects to discuss, here we’d like to focus on
the most important parts of it.
So, what is vintage jewelry? Why it's so appealing? And how 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 called vintage.
This time frame comprises of Art Deco, Retro 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.
All the above is especially important when you are looking for a
vintage engagement ring. If you want to find a special, one-of-a-kind
engagement ring, look no further because we’ve got you covered. Either it's
a perfect diamond ring or a stunning color gemstone ring, we have a great
variety to choose from.
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
