You can tell an older ring by the way it\u2019s made. Typically, the whole ring sits slightly lower on the hand and there is usually less metal visible around the stones.<\/p>\n
You can find vintage engagement rings at antiques fairs like The Art & Antiques Fair Olympia, Lapada and antiques markets and centres.<\/a><\/p>\n The price of vintage engagement rings is dictated by a few things. Firstly, it depends on the quality of the item, as well as the size of the stones. The value will also vary depending on whether it is a precious or semi-precious stone and the overall aesthetic of the piece. Beauty is always a factor in price consideration when it comes to engagement rings.<\/p>\n The short answer is no. Vintage engagement rings are not easy to find, much like all older pieces. You have to look carefully and speak to the right people. Visiting fairs<\/a> is always a great starting point.<\/p>\n A good jeweller will resize a ring regardless of whether it\u2019s vintage<\/a> or not. Resizing a vintage piece will make no difference to the value of the ring as the stones are not effected.<\/p>\n As you would expect, diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and emeralds are valued the highest, but so are natural pearls and some of the more unusual semi-precious stones such as XX.<\/p>\n To get a vintage engagement ring valued, check out an auction<\/a> or ask a friendly antiques dealer<\/a>. They will be happy to help.<\/p>\n An established shop or dealer will help\u00a0you. Those who specialise in antique<\/a> and vintage jewellery are the ideal starting point as they are likely to have the most knowledge and interest.<\/p>\n Look, ask and do your homework. Dealers are friendly people so establish a relationship of trust and enjoy the hunt.<\/p>\n Anthea Gesua, from Anthea A G Antiques Ltd<\/a>, will be exhibiting at the Art & Antiques Fair Olympia from 23-26 June at Olympia London.
