At Kalmar Antiques in Sydney's historic Queen Victoria Building. For over thirty five years, Kalmar Antiques has been dealing in fine antique jewellery from the Georgian era right through to modern. Not only do we have a large range of antique engagement rings, but we can also repair your damaged or broken antique jewellery. Employing jewellers who can repair antiques with no evidence of having work done, our restoration of antique jewellery doesn't stop there. We also employ an in-house watchmaker who used to work for Tag Heuer, LVMH and Rolex, and are an authorised OMEGA watch service centre.
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.
Etruscan jewellery of the mid-Victorian era is a style that was heavily influenced by the ancient Greek and Roman designs.
