Jewelry always makes a great gift, but it can be difficult to choose just the right piece for that special woman in your life. Does she prefer earrings, a necklace, a bracelet or a ring? Gold or silver? Stones or bead? Designs or shapes? Once you figure out what your lady likes, you’ll want to stick with it to ensure that she likes every gift.
A great idea is to buy an earring necklace set. This is made up of a necklace and a matching pair of earrings. It’s great because she can wear them together or separately and still look great. If you find out that she likes gold and butterflies, you can get her a matching gold butterfly earring necklace set and then she has double the jewelry in one gift. Once of the best places to look for deals on these sets is estate jewelry, and the internet now has hundreds of sites offering estate jewelry for sale. What are you waiting for? Time to find the perfect earring necklace set today!
A good number of trinkets adorned with precious stones are lovingly made by hand. They qualify as unique handcrafted jewelry if they are one-of-a-kind pieces, produced in very limited quantities and exhibiting rare designs. Earrings, bracelets, necklaces and anklets, or an entire set of coordinating gems, made just for a small, specific market can also be considered as unique since they are known and patronized only by a select few.
Imaginative people who make charms and ornaments by hand more often than not accept customized or personalized orders. This is one way to gain more clients and to test and enhance one’s creativity and capabilities. Bespoke pieces are special because they were created with the buyer’s request and specifications in mind and thus are less likely to have replicas or duplicates. They make wonderful gifts for young and old jewelry buffs alike, especially if you are familiar with the recipient’s tastes in trinkets, and are often found amongst estate jewelry.
WHY CHOOSE ESTATE JEWELRY? (Fine and Fashion)
I love estate jewelry because you can find great craftsmanship, incredible gemstones, a touch of history, memories of past fashions, interesting designs, something different and great value!
Antique estate jewelry includes any jewelry item made at least 100 years ago, although many consider estate jewelry from the 1920’s to be antique as well.
Estate jewelry includes any item that has been previously owned. Estate jewelry is not necessarily antique.
Unfortunately, unless you are in a museum or auction house, you will probably never see authentic ANCIENT jewelry. The oldest items discovered were fish vertebrae necklaces that date back to at least 18,000 B.C. But you will love many of the estate jewelry pieces we carry.
We at Distinctive Fine Jewelry do not have any fish vertebrae jewelry in our Estate Jewelry Collection Aren’t you glad???
Jewelry designs are moving in many different directions. Who knows for sure what the future holds, but jewelry has survived for thousands of years and will continue to evolve with the ever changing times. For that reason estate jewelry often yields some rare treasures.
