Vintage jewelry gifts under $500
Real gold, real age, no compromise on authenticity. Under $500 we are usually talking about signet rings, small gold hoops, Victorian lockets, charms and fine chains: pieces that get worn every day rather than kept for a drawer.

About gifts under $500
What defines it
Real gold, real age, no compromise on authenticity. Under $500 we are usually talking about signet rings, small gold hoops, Victorian lockets, charms and fine chains: pieces that get worn every day rather than kept for a drawer.
What to look for
Every piece here is checked at our own bench before it goes online: metal karat tested, marks read under magnification, stones and settings examined, and condition described as we find it. Anything we cannot verify is left as not specified rather than guessed, and we will show you any piece live on video before you buy.
What it costs
Pieces here range from roughly $250 for everyday gold to $50,000 and beyond for exceptional fine jewelry.
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.
