Collection: Edwardian Jewelry

The Edwardian era covers roughly the 1900s and 1910s, named for King Edward VII. It overlaps with Art Nouveau and gives way to Art Deco after the First World War, so many Edwardian pieces sit at the transition between delicate garland style and bolder geometry.

Edwardian jewelry is defined by platinum, usually worked over a gold base early in the period. Platinum's strength let jewelers create the fine filigree and milgrain that make the era so recognizable, producing settings far more delicate than gold alone could support.

Yes. Edwardian platinum solitaires and three-stone rings with old European cut diamonds are highly sought after for engagements. They combine romance with rarity, and each ring in this collection is authenticity guaranteed and can be assessed for daily wear before you commit.

Edwardian design is soft, curved, and lace-like, built around bows and garlands in white metal. Art Deco, which follows in the 1920s, is geometric, symmetrical, and bold with color. The shift from flowing lines to sharp angles is the quickest way to tell the two eras apart.
