Beauty that transcends time

Our vintage engagement rings in DC date back to all different eras. Each era of jewelry featured its own unique set of motifs, artistic style, meaning, and story as it reflected the history happening at that time. As time continues, the beauty of vintage rings grows stronger. When you choose a vintage engagement ring, you’re choosing to continue a story that no one else in the world has.

Trends from the eras were represented in engagement rings in classic and chic ways. Subtle details reflected the popular style at the time. From simple vintage engagement rings to extravagant, we have it all. Our collection of unique engagement rings in DC include pieces from:

  • Art Deco (1920-1935): Clean, rigid, geometric shapes made with pearls, gemstone mosaics, lacquer, and invisible setting. This jewelry was meant to be simple, elegant, and practical.
  • Retro (1940s): Plastic, glass, wood, enamel, and synthetic stones with motifs of animals, bows, and flowers were used to make eye-catching costume jewelry. Charm bracelets, cocktail rings, and bold stackable bangles were popular.
  • Mid-Century (1950s): Costume jewelry from the Retro era was refined and produced with expensive materials. Large, colorful gemstones surrounded by diamonds and long strings of real pearls were popular.
  • Modern (1960s-present): This era encapsulates all of the trends that came with the 90s, 80s, and on. Jewelry has seen more and more commonalities with sculpture and design.
