The Characteristics of Antique Topaz

The topaz used in antique jewellery is often distinguished by its incredible clarity and high refractive index, which gives it a diamond-like sparkle. In an antique topaz engagement ring, you may find "pinked" topaz - a traditional technique where yellow topaz was gently heated to create a permanent, beautiful rose hue. These stones are typically set in closed or open-back settings of 15ct or 18ct gold, often with silver accents to enhance the gemstone's brilliance.

Styles and Metalwork

The designs in our antique collection range from the heavy, ornate goldwork of the mid-1800s to the refined, geometric shapes of the early 20th century. You will often find topaz paired with small "rose-cut" diamonds or seed pearls, which provide a delicate frame for the central stone. The hand-engraved details on the shoulders of these rings are a hallmark of the artisanal care that went into every antique piece.

A Warm and Heartfelt Proposal

For a proposal that feels both filled with light and history, an antique topaz engagement ring is a brilliant choice. The topaz is said to promote harmony and long-lasting friendship - the perfect foundations for a successful marriage. Its radiant colour brings a sense of joy and warmth to the wearer, making it a beautiful symbol of a bright future together.
