About Gilded Age Jewelry

Where history meets craftsmanship, and heirlooms are born.

At Gilded Age Jewelry, we believe that jewelry is more than ornament. It is memory cast in gold, history held in gemstones, and beauty crafted to last beyond a lifetime. Every piece we create is a singular work of art, shaped by the romance, refinement, and imagination of the Belle Époque, Edwardian, and Art Nouveau eras — interpreted with a modern hand.

Founded by designer Timothy Vanover, Gilded Age Jewelry grew out of a lifelong devotion to antique jewels and the stories they carry. With an eye trained on detail and a heart attuned to history, Timothy brings rare gemstones, noble metals, and period-inspired motifs into harmony with contemporary craftsmanship. Each design begins with inspiration — an old-world brooch, a curve of architecture, the palette of a winter evening — and is realized in collaboration with master goldsmiths who share his dedication to excellence.

We source exceptional gemstones from around the world and work only with artisans who honor the integrity of their craft. Whether you choose a ready-to-wear treasure or embark on a bespoke commission, you can expect a piece that is soulful, meticulously made, and destined to become part of your own legacy.

Our mission is simple:
to create jewelry that does more than adorn — it enchants, endures, and feels as though it has always belonged to you.
