Understanding Makes the Difference
Antique jewellery requires a fundamentally different approach. The materials and techniques of Victorian, Edwardian, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco pieces differ significantly from modern equivalents. Our Murwillumbah restorers understand these nuances, recognising when to use traditional techniques, when modern methods offer advantage, and when to preserve the wabi-sabi of age as part of a piece’s charm. We source period-appropriate materials: old European cut diamonds for Victorian rings, calibre-cut sapphires for Art Deco, hand-carved cabochons for Art Nouveau. Your piece’s history is as precious as its materials, and we treat it accordingly.
