What defines Vintage Jewellery

Each vintage piece carries whispers of its time: the design ideals, the artistry, even the sentiment of the hands that once wore it. Whether it’s a sculptural Lapponia ring from the 1970s or a romantic diamond brooch from the 1940s, vintage jewellery reflects the evolution of beauty itself — shaped by history, yet never out of style.

What sets vintage apart isn’t age alone, but character. These jewels were made to last — crafted before fast fashion and mass production, with precision, patience, and pride. They’ve already lived a life, and their gentle patina, their slight imperfection, is proof of authenticity, not flaw.

At My Precious, we see vintage jewellery as a quiet rebellion against disposable luxury. Each restored piece is a reminder that beauty doesn’t fade — it transforms. When you wear vintage, you don’t just adorn yourself; you continue a story.

Because true elegance isn’t new — it’s timeless.

Vintage Jewellery generally refers to jewellery that’s 20 to 99 years old. This includes everything from mid-century modern designs of the 1950s to the bold statement pieces of the 1980s and even early 2000s styles. Vintage jewellery reflects the fashion, culture, and artistry of its era — from sculptural Scandinavian minimalism to glamorous retro Hollywood.
