fine jewelry

Gold and diamonds

Fine jewelry refers to pieces made from precious metals like gold, platinum, or silver and set with genuine gemstones such as diamonds, rubies, or sapphires.

It is distinguished from costume or fashion jewelry by its use of high-quality, valuable materials and typically superior craftsmanship.

Fine jewelry is often purchased for significant occasions—engagements, anniversaries, milestone birthdays—and may be passed down as heirlooms.
