Vintage jewellery has become a massive trend recently for those that wear jewellery. It is some of the best-crafted jewellery that the world has seen. It is understandable why it is so popular in the 21st century. Vintage jewellery is second-hand jewellery that is in great condition and requires a new home.
The Impact On The Environment
There are quite a few problems when it comes to the environment and jewellery making. For starters, the mines that are used to mine gemstones pump a lot of pollution into the world’s atmosphere. Not only are they there for a long time but, the machinery that is used to mine produces a lot of CO2.
When it comes to buying jewellery. There are two things that you can look out for to help do your bit for the world. Firstly, you can buy jewellery that has lab-created gemstones. These use all the chemical reactions that are needed to make a gemstone in a lab. Meaning they are made up of the same minerals that a natural gemstone is made of.
The second option is to buy vintage jewellery which is the most efficient and cost-effective way to save the planet when it comes to buying jewellery.
Great For Value
One of the best positives for vintage and antique jewellery is the cost. You will be paying much less compared to buying brand new jewellery. You also do not have to pay the manufacturing price for vintage jewellery.
There is one issue with jewellery. If you need to sell a piece of jewellery because you no longer like it. Expect the price to go down because the quality would have depleted. Nonetheless, vintage jewellery has a chance of becoming more valuable over time. The longer you hold onto vintage and antique jewellery, the rarer it becomes.
Better Quality
The quality of the average piece for vintage jewellery is usually much better quality than jewellery made today. A great example of this is pearls. The quality of a pearl is much better from 50+ years ago compared to the pearls today. The reason for this is because of the pollution that is in our oceans today.
Vintage jewellery can be more durable than jewellery that is made today. The reason for this is because vintage & antique jewellery used to be handcrafted by talented artisans. This is one of the reasons why the jewellery is more durable. Not to mention it has been tested over time because of how long ago it was originally made.
Summary
Vintage jewellery is great for many reasons. Not just because of saving the environment. The quality also feels much better than the jewellery that is made today. If you are planning to propose, there are plenty of vintage engagement rings out there that you could buy. Not only will you save money but you will also be saving the world as well.
