Sparkle in the sun: Antique jewellery for a glorious summer

When summer arrives in all its golden glory, there’s no better time to let your jewellery shine. For those who treasure the elegance of the past, antique jewellery offers a unique way to celebrate the season, with pieces that capture history, artistry, and timeless style.
Summer is the perfect time to revisit the cool, refreshing beauty of antique aquamarines. These gemstones, prized since the Georgian and Victorian eras, are adored for their clear sea-blue hue, the very colour of tranquil waters on a sunlit day.
Aquamarines were once believed to calm waves and protect sailors on long voyages. Today, they lend an effortlessly breezy charm to any outfit, whether it’s a flowing linen dress for a garden party or an elegant ensemble for an evening soirée. Antique aquamarine rings, delicate pendants, and Edwardian brooches all bring a splash of serene sophistication to your summer wardrobe. This Art Deco aquamarine and diamond cocktail ring, set in platinum is a perfect example.
