Diamonds have captivated hearts for centuries with their brilliance and enduring beauty. Diamond jewellery highlights these qualities in a variety of ways. The sparkle of a diamond is influenced by its cut, with facets designed to maximize light reflection. Clarity refers to the presence of any internal flaws, with flawless diamonds being the rarest and most valuable. The setting of an antique diamond jewellery piece also plays a role in its value, with precious metals like platinum and gold showcasing the stone's beauty and providing a secure foundation. Whether it's a classic solitaire ring or a dazzling chandelier earring, our antique diamond jewellery offers timeless elegance for wearer and viewer alike.

Popular antique diamond jewellery spans from the Romantic era to the Art Deco Revolution. Our Victorian pieces showcase clusters of diamonds and sapphires set in warm yellow gold, often featuring intricate details and hidden meanings. Edwardian styles embrace a more delicate and feminine aesthetic, with platinum settings and milgrain details highlighting sparkling old mine or European cut diamonds. Art Deco jewellery makes a bold statement with geometric shapes and striking black and white colour palettes, featuring diamonds in baguette or emerald cuts alongside platinum settings. Each period offers a unique story, allowing you to find an antique diamond piece that reflects your personal style and adds a touch of history to your collection.
