Lola Bear Vintage

Sunday stack!!

Is there anything better than the sparkle of old cut diamonds? For me personally they top brilliant cuts every time.
There's just something about them 🥰 maybe it's how unique they are because they were cut by hand. They are never perfectly symmetrical and I adore that about them.

When the evening light hits them, or even better - candlelight, they come alive and are a sight to behold.

Anyway! Happy Sunday guys. Enjoy the sunshine. Xx

*personal collection, nfs ❤

Now available 💕

3 new pairs of earrings live on the website for your perusal.

All 9ct gold and in excellent condition.

DM me if you need any info!

Now available 💚💚💚

One of my favourite rings in a while! I am lucky to be a May baby, and I just love my birthstone. Emerald has a certain glow that is hard to beat.

It really draws you into its little universe of inclusions, which are such a beautiful characteristic of the stone. Every single one is so different. And when set in an Art Deco style?! It can't get any better for me.

This ring is a size K/5.5 and can be resized to about a size P at an additional cost. 18ct gold, emerald and diamonds. More info is available on the website and if you have any questions, as always, DM me.

Payment plans can be arranged with a maximum payment time of 4 months 😊

Price €1,350.

Just listed! 14ct ruby and diamond ring 💞

Hallmarked 2004 (she's vintage now, dont come for me 🤣)

This ring gives me 1940s 'tank ring' vibes but on a much smaller and more delicate scale. I love the tension setting, it's not one I see every day!

Size 7.5/O and I would personally not recommend resizing.

Priced at €585

This bombshell will be with its new owner tomorrow but looking at it makes me feel relaxed and happy. So here it is again 💙

My is this sparkling delight ✨ 18ct gold and approx half a carat of diamonds. Still available on the website 💎 💛

I think this would be a stunning engagement ring, but ALSO, how fabulous to buy a diamond ring all for yourself?

There's something really lovely about commemorating a life event or achievement with buying yourself a special piece of jewellery.

For me personally, the pieces I reach for again and again are the ones that have the most sentimental value. That necklace I bought to commemorate my dog's passing. The antique ring I found while on my first buying trip abroad 🥰 And when I graduate 🎓, I'll be hunting for something special too.

If you are going to invest your money in a piece of jewellery, make it vintage, make it gold and make it meaningful! That way, you will never regret it. 💕

Shiny Happy Hoops! 💛Yellow gold hoops currently looking for homes 💛

These are all available on the website ✨ Im always on the lookout for more so if you're searching for a particular pair, do let me know!

This sapphire ring is available for a pre-list price on my story sale for as long as the story lasts! How utterly gorgeous is she? What a showstopper.

There are also 2x white gold hoops for sale with it! If anything catches your eye and you'd like to nab it for my best price, you have until tomorrow 🥰

DM with interest.

☁️ Rings of the day

The sky was grey, as per usual. Some days I want to wear colours to contrast the weather and others, I take the path of least resistance 😏

I adore my beautiful onyx and OMC diamond ring from . The onyx signet is also .

Hope you all had a good Bank Holiday Monday!

Ill have new stock coming very soon. # # #

!Reminder to get your rings checked!

Your stone-set rings should be looked over by a jeweller at LEAST once a year, but honestly, for me every 6 months if preferable. I wear my rings daily and while I take them off as soon as I get home, throughout the day they go in and out of pockets, snag on fabric and even get the occasional knock against a hard surface. Not to mention lifting and carrying things, which can put pressure on the ring shank and affect the setting over time.

Im slightly OTT; I check the stones in my rings several times a day. It's nearly become a tic at this point. I lost a small ruby from a ring once and didnt notice. Since then, especially with smaller, cluster size stones, I like to keep an eye on everything 👁

The prongs keeping the stones in place might need a re-tip, or even just a tighten as they wear over time. ***And don't think that because your stones are channel or bezel set that they'll stay there forever! Those settings can become loose and damaged too. Better to check and save yourself the potential heartache I say!

And now a question: do you get your rings checked on a yearly basis? Did you know you needed to? Let me know below!

Just dropped off these two at ! Both 9ct yellow gold 🥰 💛 ✨ 💓 😍 💖

Tiffany & Co 1837 band in 18ct yellow gold. A masterpiece.

I love everything about this ring: the hefty weight, the concave design, the inscriptions on the outside, the fact that it's a true Tiffany's piece 😍

This ring is a size i/4.5, 4mm wide, and not resizable (trust me, I asked. I nearly begged).

Available now on the website for €795

This 9ct white gold CZ tennis bracelet is another beauty that sold via DM last week 😍

I wont lie, selling on my stories is the best sometimes. Especially when I know I wont have time to list an item for a while.

But it's not just about me here, so I pose a question to you all - and I'd love if you guys voted in the poll! 💕 Do you like being able to claim pieces via DM when I first show them? Or do you prefer when an item is fully listed and you can view all the specs first in your own time? 💕

Just added at this gorgeous, dainty square link bracelet in 9ct yellow gold.

18ct white gold modernist pearl ring. This is the most unique and striking ring I've had for sale in a while!

In very good vintage condition, and the pearl is *perfection*.

This is a weighty, solid ring.

The Euro ring shank adds an extra level of detail as well as the practical function of reducing spinning. The ring is obviously top heavy so this shank style is ideal for keeping it still and adding a kind of counterweight!

Size L 1/2. I can enquire with my jeweller if you'd like it resized. €525

Two 💞 rhodochrosite 💞pieces on the website.

26" beaded necklace €145
18ct bead ring €385

The colour of these stones is to die for. And somehow it is flattering on every skin tone 😍

DM if you need any more info!
