Buying Vintage DC Engagement Rings
If your Bride or Groom is one of a kind and loves unique Avant-Garde pieces of jewels, a vintage engagement ring may just be the perfect fit.
There are lots of different types of vintage jewelry ranging from a variety of colors and styles. Jewelry that is considered vintage is typically over 50 years old but less than 100 years old, which would deem it antique. You will notice that many vintage designs you see still fit in with modern trends.
There are two types of vintage jewelry eras, the Art Deco era and the Retro era. The vintage jewelry at our shop comes from both time periods, spanning a wide number of years. The Art Deco era came during a time of urbanization and consumerism. Women celebrated this period of wealth with diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphire jewelry. The Retro era originated in France and began as a whimsical distraction from the war. This era is known to be big and bold to mimic the Hollywood lifestyle that so many sought after. Gold jewelry grew during this era, and you can often see retro jewelry referred to as cocktail jewelry.
