All of your rings are lovely! I am a huge fan of antique jewelry too. You’ve done a great job of collecting.

[graemehossack]

It is good that you collect thing you like and want to use them. Too many people collect things which sit in a box, never to see the light of day. The last ring shouts quality.

Nice collection.
I have a necklace that's from the late 1800s to the early 1900s.
Antique jewelry is lovely.😊

You are so lucky to have had your Gran to tell you stories. I was also lucky to be with my grandparents on both sides. Best part of my life!

Beautiful collection you have. I am also fascinated by Victorian jewelry. Thank you for sharing. ❤😊

Re antique or ancient jewellery - I remember seeing some plates and spoons from Roman times in the British museum - also necklaces and earrings, and I remember thinking that absolutely none of those objects would look out of place if used today for dinner, or the jewellery was worn out in the evening. It still looked fairly avant-garde, and in particular the earrings and necklaces looked elegant and understated - could have matched all sorts of different clothing.

I love all of them; they are just gorgeous! I don't think you need to sell if you buy another at all. I think your collection is beautiful and has plenty of growing room.

Beautiful collection! I am crazy about antique jewelry as well and the Victorian era is one of my fave eras. There are so many beautiful designs. I love Georgian as well. The top that you're wearing in this video is so pretty, goes perfectly with your hair color.

Hi Jen, your box is South American Rosewood. Very nice one. Great video of your jewelery. Also greatly agree re architecture. I live in Auckland and often study and admire Victorian architecture of buildings, both commercial/ residential.

Thanks for sharing your collection. I think I may be able to recognize this style better. Enjoyed it!

First of all, I think you have excellent taste! Personally I think my favourite of your collection would have to be The Ring, I can see why you were obsessed with it. The only ring I wear regularly is a Nouveau-style piercework silver one that's a kind of symmetric floral design. Anyway I'm really glad you decided to make this video - it's a subject I'm interested in too, so I hope you'll do some more videos about antiques etc.

As a crazy ring collector, who collects but hardly ever wears, I loved this.

Such a special collection, my favorite was the last one.

I’m a huge sap/romantic. I knew for my engagement ring, we were on a budget and that I wanted something romantic, sweet and unique. I don’t ever have time to shop in person with children, so I thought I’d check Etsy. I was surprised at how many sellers there were selling antique/vintage jewelry! I’m so glad I checked too. Saved me loads of stress, time and trouble! I have short and pudgy fingers. I’m a size 9. It’s not an easy size to find unless I’m willing to go out of my budget to pay for resizing. Any who. I had also just finished the latest season of Bridgerton, and was inspired by the ring Anthony gave to Kate with the sweet pearls! 🤣😂 I’ve also always loved pearls! I think they’re timeless and romantic! Unfortunately I could not find one in my size, BUT I did find a SWEET and dainty uncommon belcher ring! It was an antique 14k gold setting with a modern champagne stone! I’m so in love and feel like it was meant to be!! It also helps when some shops accept monthly payments! I am on the hunt still for a seed pearl and ruby or garnet ring! Loved this video!! I also have had my eye on an art deco star ring, and FINALLY found one today for a decent price in my size! Had to treat myself as an early birthday gift! TBH, since I’ve found my engagement ring, I think I might just have to start a collection as well. ☺️😍

I’m 60… about every 7-10 years many, not all, but a lot of people change their interests. I didn’t fall in love with antiques until I was about 25. I have a collection of antique jewelry, kitchen gadgets, I love love my old cast iron pots!

I feel sad when people change things I love, but dang it freedom and free will 😂😂😂

[LonKirk]

Nice video. I like old stuff too, but I prefer furniture to jewellery antiques.

[maureenfitzgerald]

Lovely lovely lovely! Wear your antique jewelry all the time. A lesson I learned later in life. Meant to be enjoyed. At worst you may damage (& repair) or lose a piece - but rings should be worn……. 🥰
