Here's Where Fashion People Get Vintage Engagement Rings
We're quite sure an engagement ring would be welcome at any time of the year, but engagement season is a thing, and we're in the middle of it. This time around, though, we're taking a break from engagement-ring trend coverage and how much to spend on a ring to talk about a type of engagement ring that'll always be in style: vintage.
Vintage engagement rings are perfect for the wearer who wants a bit of history with their bauble or who simply doesn't want to wear a ring that looks like everyone else's. The journey of shopping for a vintage engagement ring is a daunting thing to embark on, so we're here to help. We scoured the internet for sources that are filled with unique options from different eras, whether you're a fan of art deco, Victorian, Edwardian, or Georgian styles (to name a few). We ultimately narrowed it down to seven retailers that have the best assortment of fashion person approved, one-of-a-kind rings.
Keep scrolling to learn more about them and shop our picks from each site's current offerings.
1. Trumpet Horn
Downtown Los Angeles based Trumpet Horn's well-organized site divides its vast array of stunning rings according to era, making it easy to narrow the options down if you're partial to a specific style.
2. 1stDibs
An auction site, 1stDibs deals with "the world's most sophisticated collectors, designers, and curators," according to its webpage, so you know you're getting a quality product. The assortment of thousands of vintage engagement rings listed on the site is, frankly, mind-boggling.
This emerald gem just won our hearts.
How romantic is this silhouette?
3. Brilliant Earth
Brilliant Earth is another must-see if you want options. The site specializes in custom engagement rings, but its selection of vintage-style rings is quite strong, especially the art deco options.
Engraved floral motifs decorate the diamond on each side.
This is perfect if you're looking for something unique.
4. Doyle Doyle
Doyle Doyle is an NYC-based jeweler with a small, well-edited selection of unique rings.
5. EraGem
If you're looking for a vintage engagement ring with a large diamond, look no further than EraGem. The Washington-based jeweler stocks rings of every carat size imaginable, both (very) big and small.
A showstopper of an engagement ring.
6. The One I Love
The One I Love is another well-edited site with a small selection of cool girl approved options separated by era. Be sure to follow its Instagram account for Wholesale Replica Bag arrivals at its NYC shop.
7. Erstwhile
We were floored by New York based Erstwhile's ultra-unique selection, which features colored stones, an engagement-ring trend that's still going strong.
This art deco, European-cut ring is so pretty.
This emerald and diamond engagement ring will incite all the compliments.
