Given this is the very first post for STACK & STONE, it felt only right to start with an area of jewellery I’m quietly obsessed with: vintage. More specifically, vintage jewellery brands that bring a modern perspective to pre-loved pieces, shining a new light on what it means to invest in them.

There’s something undeniably special about vintage jewellery. Most pieces are one of a kind, completely different to what’s endlessly available online through fast fashion and mass-produced brands. They feel considered, personal and full of character, jewellery with a past and a future.

As a UGC (User-Generated Content) creator, I spend far too much time online. I’m constantly scrolling my explore page in search of new jewellery, new jewellers and new inspiration. But with so much jewellery now available at the click of a button, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, and I do… Where do you even begin when looking for vintage pieces before you end up turning your phone off altogether?

I want to share five vintage jewellery brands I’ve had my eye on throughout 2025, and ones you should definitely be watching as we head into 2026. This year is all about sustainable, long-lasting jewellery… the kind your kids will one day want to have as their own!

Saint L’amour Vintage

Saint L’amour Vintage is the kind of brand that makes you stop scrolling. Every piece is genuinely to die for, and you can immediately tell how much care and thought goes into each selection. This isn’t vintage for the sake of it, it’s considered, curated, and deeply cool.

You know a brand is for the cool girls when you meet the owner and she’s effortlessly styled in the most incredible vintage ring stack. Honestly, it’s the stuff dreams are made of. The founder regularly shares insight into the value of gold and the importance of viewing vintage jewellery as an investment. I’ll be honest, before discovering Saint L’amour, I hadn’t really thought about jewellery in this way, but she couldn’t be more right. Investing in gold pieces is investing, full stop.

Saint L’amour Vintage is absolutely one to keep your eye on in 2026.

Lucky Sunday

This brand, I honestly cannot get enough. From bangles to pendants, bracelets to rings, Lucky Sunday is for the girls, I’m telling you.

Although not UK-based, Lucky Sunday is run from Florida, USA. The name is inspired by Sunday flea market visits, an ode to “getting lucky” and scoring seriously cool vintage finds. Lucky Sunday specialises in carefully curated vintage and pre-loved jewellery, giving unique, one-of-a-kind pieces a new life.

It’s a refreshing take on vintage jewellery, blending sustainability with quality, and making thoughtfully made pieces more accessible. Lucky Sunday is definitely a brand for the cool girls in 2026.

Magpie Chats

When I tell you that you need to save this page – do it. Magpie Chats is one of those brands where a quick scroll turns into seriously considering draining your savings. She often drops a handful of pieces at a time, and they go fast.

What really sets Magpie Chats apart is her take on the classic signet ring. By adapting traditional signet styles with gemstone cuts, she creates truly unique, one-of-a-kind pieces that feel both timeless and unexpected. Since following her page, I can honestly say my love for gold and ruby rings has become even more profound.

Every piece is solid gold, and while the initial price point may feel steep, it’s worth taking a step back and remembering that these are pieces you’ll have for a lifetime. Investment jewellery, in the best sense of the word.

Golden Trove Jewellery

This small business has an incredible eye for vintage jewellery. From rings and necklaces to bracelets and earrings, every piece is solid gold, meaning the value and longevity you get from your purchase makes spending feel that little bit less guilt-ridden. Her Instagram is beautifully curated and truly showcases the stunning collection on offer.

Because each piece is one of a kind, hesitation isn’t really an option, if you love something, it will most likely be gone before you know it. Golden Trove Jewellery offers both bold statement pieces with striking gemstones and timeless, stackable designs that effortlessly elevate any ring stack.

While browsing the collections, I also spotted the cutest jewellery boxes available to purchase, perfect as a gift or for travelling with your favourite pieces safely and stylishly.

Dot Collins Jewellery

Dot Collins Jewellery is a brand I’ve only recently come across, and honestly, I’m annoyed it took me this long to find her page. Run through Etsy, Dot Collins Jewellery showcases a beautifully curated collection of vintage jewellery and watches that feel timeless in the truest sense.

There’s something that hits deep when I see a solid gold ring set with stones that look like they’ve lived a past life. Pieces like these don’t just accessorise an outfit, they tell a story. You can almost feel the history in them, the hands they’ve passed through, the moments they’ve witnessed.

I’ve had my eye on a vintage gold watch for a while now, so Dot Collins Jewellery is on my radar. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on what’s to come for Dot Collins Jewellery in 2026.

Picking just five vintage jewellery brands was no easy task. There are so many incredible curators out there, and plenty more I keep my eye on for upcoming drops and future additions to my collection.

Vintage jewellery makes such a cool gift, these are pieces you’ll have for a lifetime. And the best part? No one else will have what you have. So when someone inevitably says, “Oh, cool ring” you really can say “Thanks, it’s vintage”.
