Vintage Halo Ring

From delicate, intricately designed Victorian pieces to chunky, oversized items from the 1980s, antique and vintage jewelry is a popular genre, especially the vintage halo ring.  Depending on the quality of the stones and metals used in their construction, a vintage halo ring can also be an investment. In contrast, costume jewelry is crafted from non-precious materials, though designs may be just as complex or beautiful.  Although specific items such as necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, and brooches have remained popular through the ages, antique jewelry varies in design and materials depending on the era.

Mourning jewelry and pieces with sentimental motifs became popular. The Edwardian period, which lasted from 1901 to 1910, produced delicate and elegant jewelry.

Diamonds and pearls set in platinum were in vogue, as were chokers, negligee pendants, and long strings of pearls worn as necklaces.
