Fig Leaves are Out and Art Deco Engagement Rings Are In!

#Tatiana Schlossberg of the NY Times fashion section wrote an article on 5/24/17 "Fig leaves are out and what to wear to be kind to the planet." Our collection of ethical engagement rings (featuring antique engagement rings and vintage engagement rings) is the perfect jewelry choice to be kind to our planet. We know that vintage rings are always ethical and conflict free. When consumers purchase Victorian or Edwardian jewelry, they are being kind to the environment.

By not using underage labor, children can go to school to study to become doctors, or lawyers, or whatever they want to be. As Ms. Schlossberg said, let's be good to our planet by enjoying Art Deco engagement rings , which will also have a positive impact on our planet. Enjoy our rings!

Why We Love Art Deco Engagement Rings

Why do we love the words "Art Deco" or "Vintage?" There's nothing so special about these words, but maybe we love Art Deco engagement rings because of the beautiful filigree, milgrain or latticework that master jewelers used on these works of art decades ago. Or is it the journey, the stories and history these pretty antique rings have behind them having traveled all these years? Could it be that we love the beautiful look of mine cut and european cut diamonds, the simple elegance of them? Or the beautiful worn look antique engagement rings have after decades of enjoyment, like your favorite pair of worn in jeans!? It could be, but I think the reason we love vintage engagement rings so much is the symbolism these rings bring. One magic moment, when that special person in your life gives you that unique piece. A Vintage engagement ring is like an old friend who puts a smile on your face everytime you see them. At least that's what they do for me. I know every time I put my antique engagement ring on, I think of my mother who gave it to me. It takes me back to a time when she also loved wearing her ring, and I would watch, every time she put her ring on, the joy it brought to her face. Then she gave it to me, as I will give it to one of my girls. So go ahead, start your journey with a vintage engagement ring, or antique diamond ring, and I guarantee it will put a smile on your face. Every time you put on your antique engagement ring it will brings you back to that a special place. I welcome you to enjoy five beautiful Art Deco engagement rings!
