Estate and Antique Jewelry, Do You Know The Difference?

Estate and Antique Jewelry, Do You Know The Difference?

In addition to cabinets brimming with vibrant jewels and shimmering Diamonds, our store also features signs labeled "Estate," which frequently begs the question, "What makes a piece of jewelry considered "Estate"?"

We replied right away, and as many people are unaware that there is a distinction between these two widely used terms in the jewelry industry, it is usual for us to also go deeper into the idea of vintage jewelry.

Estate jewelry refers to previously owned pieces, irrespective of their age. It can encompass various styles and eras, from contemporary to vintage.

On the other hand, when we use the term Antique, we are specifically denoting pieces that are over 100 years old. These treasures often reflect the craftsmanship and design aesthetics of bygone eras, holding historical significance and unique allure.
