Sparkling past, radiant future - rings have a history
The finger ring is one of the oldest pieces of jewelry known to mankind. Rings - worn by men and women alike - can be found in almost all cultures. Accordingly, rings can have many meanings for us: the tradition of wedding rings and engagement rings as a symbol of love and commitment remains unbroken to this day. As a talisman, rings were said to have a special protective effect. A signet ring, on the other hand, testifies to the power and status of its wearer and was long reserved for the upper classes or a particular profession. From the 18th century onwards, jewelry rings could be partially produced by machine and from the beginning of the 20th century, so-called "dress rings", also known today as "cocktail rings", became established as a purely fashionable accessory.
"Vintage rings" are at least 20 years old. The term "antique" is used when the rings were manufactured more than 100 years ago. "Retro style" means that a ring made today is modeled on the style of past eras. Whether modern or art deco, silver or gold ring, diamond ring or no gemstones at all: With us, you will find the perfect ring for your personal style.
Vintage rings are more than just an accessory - they are a statement
Vintage rings are on trend and belong on the hand of every fashion-conscious jewelry lover. Whether set with gemstones or very simple, vintage rings are high-quality, individual and environmentally friendly. They radiate a unique elegance with a clear conscience.
- Sustainable shine: Vintage, antique and used rings are a sustainable alternative to new rings, as the mining of precious metals and gemstones is resource-intensive. By buying second-hand rings, you reduce the need for new production and help to conserve nature.
- Unique finds: Discover true treasures in individual designs and timeless elegance. Vintage rings offer a very special look with which you can express your personality.
- Second-hand with style: Second-hand rings are made from high-quality materials such as gold, silver, platinum and gemstones. You can buy such exquisite pieces of jewelry second-hand for significantly less than new rings of the same quality. Vintage rings are therefore also an interesting investment where you can benefit from their longevity and lasting value!

How do you determine the right ring size when buying online?
We carefully describe all pieces of jewelry in terms of size and texture. If you know your ring size, simply choose your favorite piece.
If you do not know your size, you can have it determined on site or in a jewelry store. A jeweler will use a ring sizer for this. However, you can also determine your ring size yourself using a ring table. The best way to do this is to measure the inside diameter (in mm) of a ring that fits you well. Find the measured number of millimetres in a ring table and read off the corresponding ring size.
If you have fallen in love with a unique piece that does not fit your size, we may be able to have it altered for you. Please do not hesitate to contact us!
