Vintage Jewellery Zürich

Hedley Prynn runs Vintage Jewellery Zürich at Fraumünsterstrasse 19, near Paradeplatz, with the showroom on the first floor and the entrance in Kappelergasse, alongside an online shop. The stock is antique, estate and second-hand jewellery plus some contemporary work, with engagement rings, eternity rings, earrings, pendants and more, and dated pieces such as Victorian diamond jewellery and Art Deco rings turning up regularly.

Prynn is a qualified gemologist who buys and sells, and he sets store by getting the description right: time period and provenance are weighed when valuing a piece, and gemstones and diamonds of any real value are certified by independent laboratories. The site is available in English and German. If you would rather try on genuine period pieces than browse photographs, the showroom is worth a visit.
