Finding the Right Rings for You
Antique and vintage rings have long held a special place in the hearts of fine jewelry lovers all over the world.
No matter their origin or specific characteristics, rings are timeless, versatile accessories. They’ve carried deep meaning since at least the Middle Ages, when diamond rings symbolized strength and other kinds of rings were worn to signify romantic feelings or to denote an affiliation with a religious order. Rings have also forever been emblematic of eternity.
Over time, rings have frequently taken the form of serpents, which have long been associated with eternal life, health and renewal. Italian luxury jewelry house Bulgari has become famous for its widely loved Serpenti motif, for example, and its Serpenti ring, like the other accessories in the collection, began as an homage to jewelry of the Roman and Hellenistic eras. The serpent is now a popular motif in fine jewelry. Jewelry devotees have long pined for rings adorned with reptiles, thanks to antique Victorian rings — well, specifically, Queen Victoria’s illustrious engagement ring, which took the form of a gold snake set with rubies, diamonds and an emerald (her birthstone). Designs for Victorian-era engagement rings often featured repoussé work and chasing, in which patterns are hammered into the metal.
Engagement rings, which are reliably intimidating to shop for, are still widely recognized as symbols of love and commitment. On 1stDibs, a range of buying guides can be found for those in the market for antique engagement rings, vintage engagement rings or Art Deco engagement rings.
The most collectible antique engagement rings and vintage engagement rings are those from the Victorian, Edwardian and Art Deco eras. Named for the monarchies of the four King Georges, who in succession ruled England starting in 1714 (plus King William’s reign), antique Georgian rings, be they engagement rings or otherwise, are also coveted by collectors. Pearls, along with colored gemstones like garnets, rubies and sapphires, were widely used in Georgian jewelry. The late-1700s paste jewelry was a predecessor to what we now call fashion or costume jewelry.
The Art Nouveau movement (1880–1910) brought with it rings inspired by the natural world. Antique Art Nouveau rings might feature depictions of winged insects and fauna as well as women, who were simultaneously eroticized and romanticized, frequently with long flowing hair. Art Deco jewelry, on the other hand, which originated during the 1920s and ’30s, is by and large “white jewelry.” White metals, primarily platinum, were favored over yellow gold in the design of antique Art Deco rings and other accessories as well as geometric motifs, with women drawn to the era’s dazzling cocktail rings in particular.
Whether you’re hunting down a chunky classic for a Prohibition-themed cocktail party or seeking a clean contemporary design to complement your casual ensemble, find an exquisite collection of antique, new and vintage rings on 1stDibs.
Questions About Engagement4 Carat Rings
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023The 4Cs of engagement rings are cut, color, clarity and carat weight, but this doesn�t pertain solely to engagement rings. Established by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), the 4Cs are the guidelines that determine how diamonds are graded. A diamond�s cut pertains to how the stone�s facets interact with the light. There are five main categories of color (judged on the tone and saturation): colorless, near colorless, faint, very light and light. According to the GIA, �clarity is the relative absence of inclusions and blemishes� in a diamond (inclusions are internal features and blemishes refers to surface irregularities). Also per the GIA, �Diamonds are weighed to a thousandth (0.001) of a carat and then rounded to the nearest hundredth, or point. Over a carat, diamond weights are usually expressed in carats and decimals.� Keep in mind that because a three-carat gem can be less valuable then a one-carat stone, weight is not the most important signifier of a stone�s value. Explore a large collection of engagement rings on 1stDibs.
- Is a 4 carat ring big?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Whether or not a 4-carat ring is big is largely a matter of personal opinion. However, 4-carat stones usually do have larger dimensions. Diamonds of this size are usually quite expensive due to their size. Shop a large selection of gemstone rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023The most popular carat size for engagement rings varies from country to country. In the US, the average size is around one carat. However, engagement rings tend to be smaller in other places. For example, the average is 0.6 carats in the UK and around 0.5 carats in western Europe. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of engagement rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023Whether 2-carat is a good size for an engagement ring is a matter of personal opinion. Due to its size, a 2-carat gemstone will likely stand out and get noticed. However, some people prefer smaller engagement rings, especially if they work with their hands. Carat weight is also not the most important signifier of a stone’s value. A three-carat gem can be less valuable than a one-carat stone, for example, if all of the other attributes are of lesser quality in the larger diamond. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of engagement rings.
- What is a 4 carat diamond worth?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021A 4-carat diamond’s worth varies depending on the 4Cs of diamond quality – color, cut, clarity and carat. On average, a 4-carat diamond could cost you between $8,400 to $71,500. It is also likely that the price range per carat will be even broader. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of 4-carat diamond jewelry.

- What is a swirl engagement ring?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A swirl engagement ring is typically a ring featuring a spiral or a twirling design. The design of a swirl engagement ring typically features a prong setting that sees the band is shaped in a way that lends this ring a semi-circular swirl effect as it wraps around the center gemstone. On 1stDibs, find a variety of antique and vintage swirl rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023If it seems like most engagement rings are platinum, you’ve likely been shopping at retailers and boutiques that primarily specialize in the sale of platinum jewelry. It’s true that platinum is among the most popular metals for engagement rings. Cartier pioneered the use of platinum in fine jewelry in the late 1800s, identifying the strong, lustrous metal as ideal for bringing out the true qualities of diamonds. However, engagement rings are in fact created with a range of many other materials, such as yellow gold, white gold, rose gold and titanium. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of engagement rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023No, most engagement rings aren't platinum. Some people do prefer platinum due to its appearance and its resistance to scratching and fading. However, makers offer engagement rings in a wide range of precious metals, including white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, titanium and sterling silver. Shop a large selection of engagement rings on 1stDibs.
- Are engagement rings necessary?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024No, engagement rings aren't necessary.

However, many people do choose to present them during marriage proposals to mark the occasion in a special way and symbolize the promise to one day wed. Find a large collection of engagement rings on 1stDibs.
