Why vintage engagement rings never go out of style

There’s something undeniably romantic about vintage-inspired rings. In York — a city filled with history and beauty — they feel perfectly at home.

Whether it’s the intricate detailing, old-world charm, or sense of legacy, these rings make a statement that’s both personal and timeless.

Popular antique styles York couples love

1. Art Deco
   Bold lines, geometric shapes, and symmetry.
   Perfect for lovers of architecture and modern vintage flair.

2. Edwardian
   Delicate filigree, lace-like patterns.
   Often set in platinum with milgrain details.

3. Victorian
   Rich yellow gold, coloured gemstones, sentimental motifs.
   Often designed with floral or heart elements.

4. Mid-century Retro
   Dramatic, sculptural shapes.
   A bold take on classic elegance.
