The term sustainability in the present era has become an essential term in all aspects. Even the world of fashion is shifting towards sustainable practices. The rise in popularity of collectible jewellery is a good example of how people are changing their attention from modern to antique pieces. If it had been only for the sake of sustainability, then the fashion enthusiast might not have appreciated it as much. But, collectible jewellery includes timeless pieces, basked in history and mind-blowing craftsmanship which promises to make a statement. Thus, these items are slowly but gradually emerging as the new protagonists of the fashion world.

At The Artest Foundation, we are backing the idea, as we have always believed that beauty should coexist with responsibility. Our collectible collections of vintage and antique jewellery guarantees to garner attention from people of all walks of life. These pieces are miles apart in comparison to the mass-produced jewellery, and a perfect fit for every occasion. Let us offer our valued clients an insight on how collectible jewellery is reshaping the fashion world for a better tomorrow.
Redefining accessories in an era influenced by passing trends
The term luxury is deeply connected with jewellery, as these illustrate a sense of extravagance and uniqueness where only a handful of people managed to wear them. However, in the modern age, the mass-produced items have flooded the market, and consumers have free access to these jewellery at an affordable rate. The very essence of luxury is getting lost, as it was becoming too common for everyone.
Here is where the collectible jewellery steps in. These pieces have stood the test of time, and their style quotient still remains intact. Furthermore, they are durable, and has historical relevance. Whichever item you pick in this category for example, a ring, brooch, or necklace, it illustrates exclusive art work that too handcrafted emphasizing quality over quantity. Therefore, when you own one such piece, it is bound to elevate your elegance.

Collectible jewellery is recyclable
The production of mass-produced jewellery requires extensive mining, wastage of natural resources, leading to environmental damages. Collectible jewellery addresses the above issue as they were already in use and is no longer necessary to be reproduced. There isn’t any demand for raw materials, and you are eventually breathing new life to an age-old beauty.
Thus, by choosing an antique ring or a Victorian pendant, you are contributing to the environment. It is reducing the demand for newly mined metals and gemstones. Then again, it prevents usable items ending up in landfills, and most importantly, you are supporting the reuse and preservation of old pieces.
The “other price” of new jewellery
Sorry to break the heart of those who still prefer modern jewellery over collectibles. While the modern versions boasts of sparkle and dazzle, in process it leaves environmental footprint that causes irreparable damage. For items like gold, diamonds, and other precious stones, mining is obligatory. It results in deforestation, water contamination, and increasing levels of carbon emission. Contrastingly, the old collectible pieces as mentioned before eliminate the need for extraction.
Above all, you are not sacrificing beauty. When you blend collectible jewellery adequately, you can become the show-stopper of any occasion. So isn’t it better to take up the sustainable option and show the world, you are a responsible citizen?
Timeless pieces still have the spark
Alongside being eco-friendly, collectible jewellery can be as elegant as you ever imagined. These are items that promise to enhance your personality and are a hundred times better than the modern variants. Here are some examples:

The practice of giving or gifting jewellery has been on for ages. We usually send these gifts to someone very close to our hearts. When you gift them a vintage or collectible piece as a token of appreciation, it becomes a priceless collection for the receiver.
