Antique amethyst and pearl pendant in 15 carat gold in the early 1900’s. This antique pendant was made in 15 carat gold which was only used from 1854 until 1931.
When was the Edwardian Era?
The Edwardian era was from 1901 until 1910. Some people will continue this era until the start of World War One in 1914, however as this era is defined by the reign of a monarch, this is not technically correct.
When was the Victorian era?
The Victorian era was from 1837 until 1901. Until Queen Elizabeth II, Queen Victoria was the longest ruling monarch in British history. Queen Victoria was influential in not just politics, but also fashion. After Prince Albert died in 1861, Queen Victoria went into a perpetual state of mourning. During this time until her death, she wore only black, and popularised mourning jewellery.
What is the difference between vintage jewellery and antique jewellery?
Vintage jewellery is one that is over twenty years old, but less than one hundred. Antiques on the other hand, must be over one hundred years old to be considered as an antique.
