Vintage pendants: the charm of restored antique jewelry

Vintage pendants occupy a special place in the world of second-hand jewelry. Their shapes, engravings and styles reflect the evolution of jewelry over the decades. At Gemme, each antique pendant is appraised, restored and certified by our gemmologists.

Since 1985, our Lyon-based company has been selecting 18-carat gold jewelry from different periods, restoring each piece to its original splendour. This gives you access to unique creations that are 30 to 60% cheaper than new items, while benefiting from expertise based on nearly forty years of experience.

Antique 18-carat gold pendants: a variety of styles and eras

Vintage pendants come in a wide variety of shapes: engraved medallions, openwork pendants, crosses, pendants or photo medallions. Each model reflects the aesthetic of its era. Jewelry from the 1900s often features meticulous engraving. Creations from the 1950s tend to use cleaner lines.

Antique gold pendants are appealing for their elegance and uniqueness. Some models feature floral motifs, while others follow geometric lines inspired by Art Deco. Metalwork plays a central role: hammered, satin-finished or mirror-polished, it gives each creation a strong identity.

Gemme restores women's 18-carat gold pendants in yellow, white or rose gold. Our gemmologists systematically check the hallmark, the strength of the ring and the quality of the polish.

To discover other precious pieces restored with the same high standards, take a look at our second-hand pendants, medals and crosses, available in a variety of metals and designs.

Medallions and photo pendants: sentimental jewelry and heirlooms

The antique medallion is one of the most iconic vintage pendants. Its opening conceals an interior compartment, once designed to hold a portrait or a lock of hair. Even today, the antique photo pendant retains this sentimental value and continues to occupy a central place in vintage collections.

Our workshops restore these delicate pieces while preserving their original structure. The hinges are checked, the interiors dusted and the engravings repolished where necessary. Antique pendants for women offer jewelry that is both beautiful and steeped in history, ideal for passing on or wearing every day.

To complement an antique medallion or vintage pendant, discover our varied selection of antique and vintage rings, restored with the same care. This is an opportunity to create a harmonious set based on a theme, era or metal.
