Vintage Jewelry

Vintage never goes out of style. Not to mention that sometimes a piece of vintage jewelry can fetch a pretty penny when sold to the right people. One of the best parts about vintage jewelry is not only wearing it, but searching for it can be like a treasure hunt.

Estate sales and garage sales are a great place to look for vintage jewelry. Often the jewelry can be purchased for much less than what it’s worth. Other great places to look include flea markets and online auctions such as eBay. Buying vintage pieces at consignment and antique shops however, may cost more.

To buy the best vintage pieces learn to recognize the age by identifying certain features like closures and motifs. Especially prized pieces will have the designer’s name somewhere on it. Never buy broken jewelry or jewelry with missing stones; it usually costs more to repair the piece than it is worth.
