The Growing Popularity of Antique-Style Engagement Rings

“Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. ” – Jeremiah 6:16

Antique style engagement rings have now been trending for over a decade, as a resurgence for the nostalgia of the past occupies the mind of many Americans. This is increasingly so as Americans find themselves in turbulent times in the modern era post-Covid, with both social and economic pressures nudging people towards a longing for the past, before the “new normal”. This trend also manifests itself in jewelry trends.

What makes many of the Apples of Gold Jewelry antique-style diamond engagement rings unique is the origin of our rings. We have two general styles of vintage rings.

Newly Designed Antique-Style Rings

Most antique-style rings in the jewelry industry today are new concepts that are creatively imagined by the jewelry designer or manufacturer. The designer will take into account past designs and vintage, older styles in order to come up with a brand new design reflective of the bygone era. Such is this case with our 3/4 carat Three Stone Princess-Cut Floret Diamond Ring, shown above, which is also available as a 1 carat princess-cut three-stone diamond engagement ring. This is a brand new design, inspired and reminiscent of past styles in the antique fashion. It’s a beautiful ring and one of our best selling diamond engagement rings for the past decade. Beign that it’s an antique-style, it never quite goes out of fashion!

Replica Antique Diamond Engagement Rings

The second way to create antique-style jewelry is to have access to the original jewelry from the past, as is the case with our 1800s and 1900s reproductions of various gemstone engagement rings as well as diamond rings. What makes this ring unique is that is not merely an imaginative reconstruction of a ring from the distant past. It is an actual exact replica of engagement and diamond rings that were being sold by actual jewelers in the late 1800s to early 1900s and were actively being manufactured and produced for jewelers of the era.

One of our top jewelry designers and craftsmen one day accidentally discovered an entire cache of antique style rings, pendants and earrings from this era, including the various parts and jewelry making tools necessary to recast and recreate them.

The above ring is not a mere creative construct, but a brand new jewelry piece being cast and made from the original, making it a perfect and exact replica of engagement rings being circulated in the 1800s and 1900s America. There is nothing else quite like it and this is what makes these rings so unique. See the entire collection of gemstone and diamonds here
