About engagement rings under $10,000
What defines it
Above $5,000 the center stones get larger and the workshops get better. This is where you find fine Edwardian platinum, Art Deco geometry and old European cut centers with real presence, still for less than a comparable new stone in a new setting.
What to look for
Check the hallmark and the wear together: an honest antique ring shows soft, even wear on the high points, original solder lines and a shank that has not been thinned. Ask to see the culet of any old-cut stone, the back of the setting and the gallery, all of which we will show you live on video before you buy.
What it costs
Most antique and vintage engagement rings we sell sit between roughly $1,500 and $12,000, with signed pieces and larger old-cut centers running higher.
Indicative only. Every curated vintage, antique and estate piece is one of a kind and priced on its own merits, with free insured US shipping.
