The Meaning Of Vintage Engagement Rings
The term “vintage” refers to any piece of jewelry that is over 20 years old, but less than 100 years old. However, what makes these pieces so interesting and sought-after by the modern woman? Well for one thing they are unique: no two vintage rings will look alike because each ring was made upon a customer’s request with all their favorite jewels in mind. Secondly, there is something about the quality and precision of this type of ring that sets it apart from today’s mass-produced engagement rings; many also cost considerably less!
Why People Love Vintage Engagement Rings?
Many people appreciate vintage rings because they have a story behind them and are often more charming than a new ring. The minor imperfections picked up over the 50 years of use add to that charm, adding character to your finger bling!
Many jewelry enthusiasts prefer buying old-fashioned pieces for their stories as well as an appreciation for its beauty rather than purchasing newer items which may lack some of those characteristics.
Furthermore, vintage rings are not the mass-produced commodity of today’s market. The artisan craftsmen that made them would have spent hours painstakingly crafting each ring, ensuring a level of quality unmatched by modern machines and cutters with lasers.
Vintage jewelry is more likely to be authentic for two reasons: one being it had been handmade over 50 years ago instead of manufactured in bulk with laser cutting technology; another reason they’re unique is because the craftsmanship was very difficult or expensive to reproduce at all levels.
Finally, one of the best things about vintage engagement rings is that they are timeless. They will never go out of style and your future spouse can wear it with anything in their wardrobe for years to come!
