WHAT IS VINTAGE JEWELRY?
22 Jun

The most important thing to look for today is designers and special conditions when buying antique jewelry. The best vintage jewelry designers are Alice, Coro, Triffari Japan, Lisner, Gerry, Giovanni, Monet and Weiss. Another thing to consider is the time or year or the type or design of the jewelry you like.

 1935 to 1940 were considered retro style and were the beginning of fashion jewelry that we now consider vintage jewelry. Some are made of fine or precious metals and precious stones, others are not. Many pieces featured synthetic stones in different colors and the flower brooch and knots were a true love.

The next time the 1940s were retro and postwar pieces that your grandmother and the mother could wear it.

 Jewelry from the 1940s is very similar to the jewelry from the 1930s, but more dimensional and with design elements that move from Art Deco to a style that eventually becomes retro-modern after World War II. Additionally, neo-Victorian jewelry was still very popular in the 1940s, although the styles were more delicate than those of the 1930s.

 The 1950s saw some changes in jewelry design. A more charming look with larger rhinestones, flower pieces, and large stone knots. The 1950s developed its own definitive styles, which included multi-strand pearl necklaces with pearls that were much larger than the fake pearls of previous years. Lucite Duroplastic inserts from the 1940s were all the rage with Lucite Confetti and integrated Lucite jewelry.

In the 1960s, a plethora of Art Deco with transparent rhinestones, a rebuilt look, and a richer, more eye-catching look spread. Another look was a revival of Art Nouveau in the late 1960s and 1970s. The pieces are very colorful, some almost psychedelic, including many butterflies, dragonflies, and feminine motifs. The Art Nouveau revival of this period was also widespread in the printing and interior design industry.

 In the 1980s, the younger or younger pieces of the vintage line, more creators came out of the pieces without the extreme rhinestones and offered more large pieces of gold and silver jewelry. Springs and plastics. Fashion jewelry seems to have been made over the years with less labor and cheaper materials. We have seen an avalanche of cheaper imported plastics and painted metals. Many of them are still considered vintage. Most of the '80s parts that are still in very good condition have either been stored and never been used or just used once or twice. They are still considered vintage.

 Watch out for sellers who offer parts that are remakes of REAL VINTAGE parts. New old-fashioned or tribal-inspired fashion jewelry doesn't make the piece vintage. The year the item was made alone is a vintage gem.

 Today we consider items manufactured in the years 1935-1981 as VINTAGE.

 We do not recommend buying in bulk according to the book. You can often find jewelry boxes called VINTAGE or ANTIGUAS for sale in boxes or in books. You can find one or two pieces that are really old or old. Another problem when buying in bulk is that many pieces generally lack stones, beads, and fasteners and are not really "ready to wear" or in good condition.

 Vintage jewelry has become very popular. Whether it's gold, silver or fashion jewelry, everything is well done and it has taken almost a century to old jewelry. Vintage jewelry offers a particular style of jewelry. Whether in the 1930s, when genuine fashion jewelry became popular or in the 1940s-1950s, when many designer brands became so popular today. Vintage jewelry is considered to date from 1929 to 1980. Most people only want jewelry made before 1960, but because of their workmanship, quality, and design.

 When buying vintage jewelry there maybe earrings, rings, necklaces, pins and other pieces. The most collected today are earrings, necklaces, and pins. When we talk about vintage jewelry, don't be confused, we talk a lot about jewelry, but we also include real gold and silver coins. The reason we focus on costume jewelry is that it was at this point that he started making costume jewelry. It costs less and is just as beautiful, if not more than a true piece of gold jewelry.

 One thing about vintage jewelry is that the pieces are made to last. They were colorful and lively. In the 1930s, people faced depression. Jewelry has entered the world of jewelry. These coins were made in the same way as real gold and silver coins. Much gold or silver or filler.

 Look for metal stamps and marks. Gold is marked in a number, then K for carats. The gold filler or plate is also valuable, but not so much. Good metal content or a decent finish shows that the part was more expensive when it was new, so it is probably more valuable now. Even if the coin is not gold or silver.

 Here are some ways to find out if your jewelry is vintage.

 Look at the reverse of the coin. Is it rough or smooth? The oldest antique jewelry is always elegant. It only started having a spin around the 1970s. Rhodium has been used for most vintage jewelry and will continue to be shiny silver or gold today.

 Glued rhinestones can show age. Look for jewelry that is attached with spikes that hold the rhinestones. Glued (glued) rhinestones are very pretty and maybe old, but they are not as valuable.

 All vintage earrings had a screwed back or clips. Screws were used until the 1950s when everything went to clips. The rear screws may not have any marks, but most clips do.

Most silver coins are marked on the holder/screw of the earrings. You may not even be able to determine that a coin is silver until you have cleaned it.

There are some designers who have done a lot with jewelry that is now considered vintage. CHORUS, ALICE, Trifari, Monet, Hobi, Bakelite, and many others. Many pieces were imported/exported from different countries, but Austria was a country that made a name for itself in jewelry. Many pieces were exported from Austria, which is very beautiful jewelry. In the years 1930-1940, these are beautiful pieces that have been made and most will say Made in Austria on the back, many of fine crystal in shades of gold or silver. They were so well done that they will look new today.

The name of a good designer on a piece will add a lot of value. Some people only buy a certain designer or collect an era and know the costume jewelry makers of that era. A piece marked by a designer is generally a good find if it is marked. Style makes a difference. Even odd-looking parts must be purchased when marked. Strange and unusual pieces may be more valuable to a collector.

One thing I can tell you is that once you have a vintage gem in your hand, you will know the difference between the old and the new. New jewelry is simply not the same as old jewelry.
