As we approach the later half 2024, the jewellery scene is buzzing with fresh styles and exciting trends. And where better to explore these than at Hatton Garden, London’s famous jewellery district? Whether you’re looking for something bold and contemporary or a piece with a rich history, Hatton Garden jewellers have it all. At Farringdons, we’ve been following these trends closely, and our collection of antique and vintage jewellery is more relevant than ever. Let’s take a look at the trends that are set to dominate the year.
1. Vintage Revival: Old Meets New
This year, vintage jewellery is enjoying a major resurgence. More people are seeking out antique pieces that carry both timeless beauty and a story. From the intricate designs of Georgian jewellery to the delicate details of Victorian pieces, the charm of bygone eras is irresistible. Whether it’s a romantic Edwardian ring or a bold Art Deco necklace, vintage jewellery brings a touch of history and elegance that simply can’t be replicated.
At Farringdons, we’ve seen a growing demand for jewellery that hails from past centuries, with many of our customers choosing to invest in pieces from the Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, and Art Deco periods. These pieces are perfect for anyone wanting something truly unique, as no two vintage items are ever exactly the same.
2. The Power of Colourful Gemstones
2024 is the year of colour, with vibrant gemstones leading the charge. While diamonds will always have their place, this year’s trend sees a move towards rich, bold hues. Emeralds, rubies, sapphires, and amethysts are becoming the go-to stones for those who want their jewellery to make a statement. Colourful gemstones bring a fresh and personal touch to everything from engagement rings to everyday jewellery.
At Farringdons, our collection reflects this trend, with a range of antique pieces featuring stunning, richly coloured gems. These gemstones add personality and flair, making each piece stand out in its own way.
3. Sustainable and Ethical Jewellery
With more people becoming aware of their environmental footprint, sustainability continues to be a key trend in 2024. Many jewellery buyers are now seeking ethical and sustainable options, with a focus on pre-owned and recycled jewellery. Choosing vintage jewellery is not only about owning a beautiful piece from the past, but also about making a more eco-conscious choice.
At Farringdons, we’re proud to offer a wide range of antique and pre-owned jewellery, allowing our customers to make ethical purchases while still enjoying exquisite craftsmanship. Vintage jewellery offers the perfect blend of style, history, and sustainability.
4. Art Deco Glamour
Art Deco designs are still going strong in 2024, with their bold, geometric shapes and striking patterns capturing the imagination of jewellery lovers everywhere. The influence of the 1920s and 1930s can be seen in everything from rings to earrings, bringing a sense of glamour and sophistication. The clean lines and vibrant colours of Art Deco jewellery make it the perfect choice for those who want a piece that commands attention.
At Farringdons, we have a stunning selection of original Art Deco pieces, each one reflecting the daring and creative spirit of the era. Whether it’s a dramatic ring or a statement bracelet, Art Deco jewellery is ideal for making a lasting impression.
5. Personalised and Unique Jewellery
In 2024, jewellery is all about telling a story. More people are turning to personalised and bespoke designs that reflect their individual style and values. This trend is also pushing the demand for vintage jewellery, where each piece comes with its own unique history. Whether it’s a locket with a hidden compartment or an antique ring engraved with initials, these items carry a sense of intimacy and meaning.
At Farringdons, we love helping our customers find jewellery that feels personal and special. From vintage engagement rings to one-of-a-kind pendants, our collection is full of unique pieces that reflect the individuality of the wearer.
6. Non-Traditional Engagement Rings
Traditional engagement rings will always be in style, but 2024 is seeing a shift towards more non-traditional choices. Many couples are opting for vintage engagement rings, drawn to their uniqueness and history. Instead of the classic diamond solitaire, more are choosing rings with coloured gemstones, intricate settings, or unusual designs.
At Farringdons, our selection of vintage engagement rings offers something for every taste. From Victorian rings with delicate detailing to Edwardian bands with intricate filigree, these pieces are perfect for couples looking for a ring that tells its own story.
