A journey through history
Vintage bracelets often carry the history and style of a particular era. These vintage bracelets can be seen as little time machines that can take us back to lost glory days. Therefore, in our webshop we have a rich collection of vintage bracelets that have been carefully selected.
A period in which many beautiful and striking bracelets were made is the art deco period, this period ran from the 1920s to the early 1940s. Art deco bracelets can be recognized by their geometric designs, clean lines and the use of many and expensive gemstones such as emeralds, sapphires and diamonds. Art deco bracelets exude luxury and elegance, which was very typical of the jazz era.
Bracelets that are detailed and romantic often come from the Victorian period, this took place from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century. They are often decorated with floral designs, cameos and pearls, and were very popular during this time.
The 1960s were known as the time of the hippies. The hippies revolutionized the fashion world and it was also noticeable in the field of jewellery. The bracelets worn during this time were colourful and contained symbols of peace and love. The hippie bracelets reflected the counterculture of the time and the spirit of freedom.

Craftsmanship
One of the main characteristics of vintage bracelets is the craftsmanship with which they were made. Talented silversmiths made these bracelets by hand and they often had great attention to detail. The bracelets were made with care and dedication and each item was unique. So at Vintage Jewellery, we value this craftsmanship and look for bracelets of high quality.
Our collection includes many different types of bracelets. Most of our pieces are crafted using different techniques, such as filigree work, enamel work, granulation and hand-set gemstones. When the bracelet contains gemstones, they are viewed by a gemologist to verify the authenticity of the stones. Bracelets are also tested for gold content, this is mainly 8,14,18 or 20 carat gold. Each item in our vintage collection is unique and carefully selected.
When you choose vintage bracelets you are not only choosing to wear a piece of history but you are also taking a sustainable choice.
