We're seeing more and more women mesmerized by the range of choice, rarity and quality in vintage rings. They're more interested in a sentimental heirloom piece that fits their personality than a simple, six-prong Tiffany solitaire.

As we move towards a more sustainable future, it's great to see more and more couples going back to vintage engagement rings. Not only are these rings a lot more eco-friendly than their modern counterparts, they're also more personal and meaningful. There's just something special about a handmade, hand selected vintage ring that just can't be replicated with any current technology.

It's important to note, though, that when it comes to vintage jewellery, there are many types of imitations out there. Authentic vintage pieces were made by hand, using the same tools and techniques as the eras that inspired them. On the other hand, some jewelers are choosing to use vintage-inspired designs in recent times, producing them with modern production methods. This type of jewellery is often called "vintage recreation" or "antique reproduction" rings, and we recommend avoiding this type of jewelry if you're looking for genuine antique pieces.

In addition to the age of a piece, another factor that influences the price is its condition. In general, real vintage jewellery in better condition will have a higher value than an older piece that's damaged or worn out. This is because the ring's aesthetic is often considered as an integral part of its history.
