Dear esteemed friends, collectors,
and fellow jewellery aficionados


At Adin, our fascination lies in the delicate art of unlocking a jewel's history - its era, craftsmanship, and the possible tales and/or symbolism it carries. This journey into each piece's past invites both aficionados and newcomers alike to a deeper appreciation of the artistry and stories encapsulated within.

Immerse yourself in the thrill that jewellery experts feel as they unravel the mysteries of an antique's provenance, just as with this ring, hailing from the cusp of the Georgian era, circa 1820, believed to be of Southern Netherlands origin. Crafted from 18k red gold and silver, and set with seven rose cut diamonds, their beauty enhanced by a foil setting, a nearly forgotten craft.

Beyond its aesthetic allure, the ring's excellent condition after more than two centuries is a marvel, evoking both admiration and wonder. Holding this ring is like holding a portal to the past, each facet and sparkle hinting at untold stories of love, triumph, and timeless elegance.

If only it could speak, imagine the mesmerising tales it would share. Imagine the privilege of wearing such a storied jewel, a beacon of the past's unmatched elegance.

Dear esteemed friends, collectors,
and fellow jewellery aficionados


At Adin, we find great joy in exploring the history and symbolism of vintage and antique jewellery. Particularly, we delight in uncovering the stories of those who once wore these pieces, their reasons, and the narratives or figures depicted.

Our latest endeavour involved a deep dive into the backstory of the depicted antique brooch. We discovered that this jewel is not just an accessory; it's a conduit to the opulence and secrets of the French court, with a spotlight on the enigmatic 18th Century Madame de Pompadour.

Madame de Pompadour transcended her role as Louis XV's companion to become a pivotal fashion and arts patron, shaping French culture with her intellect and influence. A formidable figure, she rose to power, advising the king and supporting key Enlightenment figures, leaving an indelible mark on the cultural landscape of her time. This mid-19th century brooch, celebrating her legacy, mirrors the sophistication and elegant taste she introduced to French fashion. An exquisite testament to this strong woman's ingenuity and lasting influence, this piece highlights her as an unforgettable character in French history, inviting one to imagine the significance of donning such a historically rich jewel.

Renaissance Elegance: A 500-Year-Old Diamond Ring


In an era veiled by the mists of time, around the mid-1500s, a ring of unparalleled distinction was forged. Crafted in the fires of artistry from 18K yellow gold, this ring was adorned with three diamonds, shining with an inner light that rivalled even the stars of Eärendil. Its surviving enamel, though time-worn, still bears the secrets of ages, a silent testament to the profound artistry of a bygone era.

To wear this ring is to embrace a legacy far beyond mere ornamentation. It is a declaration of a unique journey through time, akin to the 'One Ring to rule them all' in its singularity and allure. This is no ordinary jewel; it is a beacon of history, a personal ensign that carries the weight and wonder of nearly five centuries. A ring to rule the realms of history and art, a precious guardian of time's treasures. Let yourself be swept away by the potential histories this ring may hold, a journey through time and imagination.
