Question 1

What is the difference between Chanel Fine Jewelry and Chanel Fashion Jewelry?

Accepted Answer

Chanel Fine Jewelry is crafted from high-value materials such as 18k gold and diamonds and produced using traditional high jewelry techniques. It is distinct from Chanel Fashion Jewelry, which uses costume materials and is not part of the fine jewelry category. At The 1916 Company, we are proud to be an authorized retailer of Chanel Fine Jewelry.

Question 2

What are Buccellati's signature jewelry design elements?

Accepted Answer

Buccellati is known for its hand-engraved gold techniques—rigato, segrinato, and modellato—which create lace-like textures that resemble fine textiles. These artisanal methods are unique to the house and give each piece a rich, heirloom character.

Question 3

How do Messika diamonds differ from traditional designs?

Accepted Answer

Messika's diamonds are cut and set to emphasize movement and lightness. The brand's signature "Move" collection features mobile diamonds that glide within their settings, representing love's past, present, and future.

Question 4

What is a cabochon gemstone, and where might I see it used?

Accepted Answer

A cabochon is a gemstone polished into a smooth, rounded dome rather than faceted. You'll often see this technique used in jewelry by brands like Pomellato, where it enhances the color and softness of the stone.

Question 5

What's the best type of necklace for layering?

Accepted Answer

Short chains (14-16 inches), mid-length pendants, and longer sautoirs (28 inches or more) create ideal depth when layered. Vhernier, Messika, and The 1916 Company's private label all offer elegant styles suited for layering.

Question 6

Can pre-owned Cartier jewelry be authenticated?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All pre-owned Cartier pieces at The 1916 Company are thoroughly vetted and authenticated by our experts for material quality, hallmarks, and design integrity before they are made available for sale.

Question 7

Is it better to buy a ring in platinum or gold?

Accepted Answer

Both are excellent choices depending on your aesthetic and lifestyle. Platinum is naturally white and hypoallergenic, ideal for durability and low-maintenance brilliance. Gold—available in yellow, white, or rose—offers warm tones and is often used for more sculptural or color-rich designs.

Question 8

What are the best jewelry brands for heirloom-quality pieces?

Accepted Answer

At The 1916 Company, we only carry fine jewelry from the world's most trusted luxury houses, including Chanel, Buccellati, Chopard, Vhernier, and more—each renowned for its craftsmanship, materials, and heritage.

Question 9

Do you offer engagement rings and bridal jewelry?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our Bridal Jewelry selection includes engagement rings, wedding bands, and anniversary styles in classic and modern settings.

Question 10

Is The 1916 Company an authorized retailer for all of its jewelry brands?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We are official authorized retailers for over 50 global luxury brands, ensuring every new jewelry piece comes with the manufacturer's warranty and authenticity guarantee.

Question 11

How do I choose between diamond studs and drop earrings?

Accepted Answer

Studs offer timeless simplicity and are perfect for daily wear or understated elegance. Drop earrings make more of a visual statement and add movement, ideal for evening wear or special occasions. Both are available in styles from brands like Chopard, Messika, and our in-house label.
