Pieces of jewellery made over 100 years ago qualify as antique jewellery, also known as vintage jewellery.  Each era came with its own style of jewellery.  The style was determined by prominent influencers and trends at the time.

Dependent on the origin and era of the piece, antique jewellery generally demands a higher value.  The most popular gold used was 15ct, which has a gold content of 62.5%.  Antique jewellery is commonly set with either rose cut or European cut diamonds.  Other precious and semi-precious gemstones can be set in these pieces, however, this is dependent on the era. By studying the different designs.
