Why we love vintage costume jewellery

Classic and elegant, costume jewellery can add uniqueness and flair to any outfit, smart or casual. Vintage costume jewellery is a statement, and is a way to express your individual style. It is also great to know that you are unlikely to find two identical pieces, so there is not much chance of someone wearing the same as you. Vintage jewellery were made to last, and with one size fits most – makes perfect gifts!

People love collecting costume jewellery and once you start it is hard to change the habit. Often collectors have a favourite designer or maker, or collect a certain period. We sell many different makes and designs in store and on our website, from high-end designers like Chanel; Givenchy and Lea Stein, to the mid-range widely-collectable makers such as Monet; Corocraft; Trifari; and Napier. We also sell unsigned and sometimes more modern makers such as JW and Danecraft (well-known for their fun kitsch pieces).

Please note that some vintage jewellery was produced prior to the introduction of the 2002 law prohibiting the use of nickel or nickel compounds. Customers allergic to these metals may experience skin rashes or irritation where the metal is in contact with the skin.
