Vintage engagement rings are not only unique, but they also have a history attached to them. Some couples like the idea of choosing a ring with a story that can become a part of their own journey together. The combination of rarity and character makes a vintage ring that much more special and symbolic of your bond. The fact that the ring is an heirloom that can be passed down through generations is another positive to consider.
Vintage rings also have the added benefit of being sustainable. Instead of using brand new stones that have to be mined, shipped, inspected and cut from scratch, you’re taking stones that have already gone through that process and repurposing them.
Even if an actual antique ring isn’t in your budget, you can take still take your favorite features from jewelry trends of the past to create a one-of-a-kind piece that will become part of your future together.
