In selecting an antique or vintage engagement ring you are choosing something special, with a unique cachet; whether it be an early piece from the Georgian period, a sentimental Victorian piece, graceful Edwardian or adventurous Art Deco what you now have in your possession is a little piece of history. Your 'new' jewel will have had a life before, and comes to you with the richness and subtle echo of its mysterious 'history'. Furthermore, each aspect of each ring will be a one-off... from the rare and hand-cut Diamonds and precious gemstones to the uniqueness of design and expression of personality shown in the quality of hand work and craftsmanship such as is not often seen nowadays. Opting for an antique or vintage engagement ring represents a positive ethical choice too in a world where so much is disposable. As the Diamonds and gemstones are old and vintage stones which were mined prior to the 1930's, they offer ease of conscience regarding 'conflict free gems'. Antique and vintage jewellery represents recycling at its best!
