Questions About High Jewelry
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    How you define high jewelry versus fine jewelry is largely a matter of personal opinion because the terms do not have formal definitions. Generally, fine jewelry is any piece of jewelry carefully crafted out of precious materials like metal and gemstones. High jewelry is a term used by collectors to describe jewelry of significant value. Exceptional craftsmanship, one-of-a-kind signs and highly sought pieces may fall under the category. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of antique and vintage jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    High jewelry is the term for luxury jewelry made with the highest quality of materials and with the highest level of craftsmanship. Often, the phrase implies that the jewelry maker produces bespoke or one-of-a-kind pieces. Generally, high jewelry features only the finest metals and rarest precious gemstones and is usually made by hand. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of high jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024
    Quality and rarity define the difference between fine jewelry and high jewelry. Any jewelry that features fine materials, like precious metals and gemstones, may be considered fine jewelry. The term high jewelry usually refers to one-of-a-kind jewelry that is often crafted entirely or partially by hand. Shop a diverse assortment of jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024
    To tell if jewelry is high quality, first look for hallmarks that indicate the metal's purity. You can use trusted online resources to determine what the hallmarks mean and learn more about the benefits of the materials. Examining the hardware featured on jewelry can further help you identify quality pieces. Holding a magnet near the jewelry can also be helpful. Solid precious metals usually aren't magnetic, so if the magnet sticks, you may have a piece of costume jewelry crafted out of less expensive materials. Well-made necklaces, earrings and bracelets usually feature sturdy clasps and fasteners that are simple to operate but can stay securely closed. When in doubt about the quality of a particular piece, seek the opinion of a certified appraiser, experienced jeweler or other expert. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of antique, vintage and contemporary jewelry.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between Chanel high jewelry and fine jewelry comes down to exclusivity. The Chanel fine jewelry collection consists of pieces featuring precious metals and gemstones. These are available to purchase through Chanel boutiques and other authorized dealers. Chanel high jewelry is the term for one-of-a-kind Chanel jewelry. These pieces are custom-designed by the luxury fashion house's high jewelry artistic director and made to order for each customer. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of Chanel jewelry.
