Antique Jewelry That are in Fashion Now

If there is one thing that never goes out of style, it is antique jewelry. However, what changes are which type of antique design is in fashion. If you are thinking of visiting your favorite high-end jewelry consignment store to check out their latest stock, here is a guide on which antique jewelry is in fashion now.

Right now, jewelry pieces from the 1980s and 1990s are in popularity. For someone born in that period, it may be bewildering to think how can the jewelry they wore become antique; let’s clear one point. Antique jewelry is jewelry 100 years or older, and vintage jewelry is 20 years or older. So, yeah, jewelry from the 80s and 90s is vintage jewelry now! Ok, as for the style to look out for, the chunkier it is, the better. Doorknocker earrings and heavy chain necklaces are in fashion, especially those from brands like Cartier or Bulgari.

If you are looking to buy rings, then rings from the 1960s and 70s with colored stones are in demand. Another stone that is in vogue very much is the moonstone, especially on jewelry from the Victorian era (which is antique jewelry and not vintage)

As for bracelets, the fashion is to wear bracelets from different eras and fashions together to create a unique style statement. Look out for colored store bracelets from the 1940s if you want to increase your vintage jewelry collection. Mix them with your Art Deco bracelets and those from the 80s or 90s to look your best.

If you want to invest in antique jewelry, rings from the Art Deco era and starburst earrings from the Victorian era are always great choices. However, these kinds of jewelry are low in supply, so make sure you have a great rapport with your local consignment store so that they notify you when they get such items for sale. 

Are you thinking of focusing on a particular jewelry style irrespective of the era? Then snake jewelry is in vogue right now. You will find both antique and vintage pieces in such styles. Emeralds are also in great demand no matter which era they are from. Other three choices to look at in your high-end jewelry consignment store are hoop earrings, interesting silver pieces, and pearls.

Please ensure they are vibrant and playful regardless of the era of jewelry you buy. The more whimsical they are, the better. As that is the in-demand for antique jewelry right now.
