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.

- Why are wedding rings stacked?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Wedding rings are stacked to allow a person to wear all of their bridal jewelry at once. Often, a person will receive an engagement ring when accepting a marriage proposal. Then, a couple will typically exchange a set of rings on their wedding day. Stacking makes it possible to show off both the engagement and wedding rings. Some people position the wedding ring on the bottom so it is closest to the heart, while others prefer to put it on top to securely hold the engagement ring. Explore a large collection of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- What are stacked wedding rings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023Stacked wedding rings are multiple wedding bands worn together on the same finger.

You can also find matching triple-band stacking sets, which can symbolize the Christian Holy Trinity or a couple's past, present and future. Explore a wide variety of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023How wedding rings should be stacked is up to you. Traditionally, brides place their engagement rings above their wedding rings, so the jewelry they exchanged during their wedding ceremonies is closer to their hearts. However, many people now choose to place their engagement rings on the bottom and use their wedding bands to secure them. Explore a wide range of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023You can stack wedding rings in any order you wish. The most common approach to stacking is to wear the wedding band closest to your heart, followed by the engagement ring and then an anniversary ring or second wedding band over top. However, other arrangements can work just as well, so let your own preferences be your guide. Shop a diverse assortment of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024The difference between vintage, antique and estate engagement rings comes down to age and history. Rings that are over 100 years old are antiques, while those produced 20 to 99 years ago are vintage. Estate engagement rings are any rings that have had a previous owner. They can include antique, vintage and even contemporary rings produced during the last 20 years. Shop a large selection of engagement rings on 1stDibs.
