Antique and vintage jewellery has a character that modern pieces often try to recreate, but rarely match. From old cut diamonds to richly coloured sapphires and rare Burma rubies, these are jewels with presence, history and craftsmanship built into every detail.
Our latest new arrivals include several standout pieces for collectors, engagement ring buyers and anyone looking for jewellery with a strong sense of individuality.
Vintage Rare Certified Burma Ruby & Diamond Collar Necklace
One of the most impressive pieces in the collection is this Vintage Rare Certified Burma Ruby & Diamond Collar Necklace. Crafted in 18ct white gold, the necklace is set with matching oval-cut Burmese rubies with a combined ruby weight of 24.45cts, complemented by brilliant-cut and baguette-cut diamonds. Burma rubies are among the most sought-after gemstones in the world, admired for their rich colour and rarity. This is a serious high jewellery piece, ideal for those looking for something exceptional rather than simply decorative.
Rare Antique Natural Sapphire Drop Earrings
For lovers of coloured gemstones, these Rare Antique Natural Sapphire Drop Earrings are another highlight. Dating to the 1930s and crafted in platinum, they feature certified oval natural no heat sapphires, further round sapphires and delicate diamond detailing. No heat sapphires are especially desirable because their colour has not been enhanced by heat treatment, making them a strong choice for collectors who value natural origin and gemmological rarity.
Vintage Sapphire and Diamond Cluster Ring
Sapphire also features beautifully in this Vintage Sapphire and Diamond Cluster Ring. The ring is crafted in 18ct yellow gold and centres on a 2.35ct oval cut no heat sapphire, surrounded by old cut diamonds. It has the classic strength of a cluster ring, but with enough detail and individuality to feel far from ordinary. It would make a distinctive engagement ring or a special cocktail ring for someone drawn to deep blue gemstones.
Vintage Old Cut Cushion and Pear Shape Diamond Ring
Diamond lovers will find plenty to consider too. This Vintage Old Cut Cushion and Pear Shape Diamond Ring is a beautiful example of why old cut diamonds remain so loved. Crafted in platinum, it features a central old mine cushion cut diamond flanked by two pear cut diamonds. Three stone rings are often chosen for their symbolism, representing the past, present and future, making this a particularly meaningful choice for an engagement or anniversary.
Vintage Art Deco Style Diamond Ring
For those who prefer Art Deco styling, this Vintage Art Deco Style Diamond Ring offers a more delicate take on period-inspired design. Crafted in platinum, it features an old cut diamond at the centre with additional diamond detailing and engraved shoulders. It is refined, wearable and full of the geometric elegance associated with Art Deco jewellery.
Vintage 18ct Yellow Gold & Diamond Bangle
The collection also includes a striking Vintage 18ct Yellow Gold & Diamond Bangle, crafted in 18ct yellow gold with an 18ct white gold pavé set wrap detail. Set with brilliant cut diamonds, this is a strong everyday-luxury piece with enough presence to be worn alone, but enough versatility to sit alongside other bracelets and bangles.
What connects each of these pieces is not just age or rarity, but individuality. Antique and vintage jewellery appeals because no two pieces feel quite the same. The details are more distinctive, the craftsmanship is often more expressive and the gemstones frequently have a depth of character that feels increasingly hard to find.
Whether you are looking for a rare coloured gemstone, an old cut diamond ring, an antique engagement ring or a statement vintage jewel, these latest arrivals show the breadth of what makes pre-owned, antique and vintage jewellery so special.
