Let’s face it–when you need your antique jewelry fix, we don’t always have time to hop in a car and go on an antiquing road trip. In a perfect world, I would travel the country in search of the best antique jewelry shops, in the smallest towns–not even on a map. But like most people, I live in a fast-paced world with a full time job. That’s where the Internet comes in handy–its your virtual antiquing road trip, which can bring together jewels from all over the world. I’ve grown my collection with the help of the Internet and some awesome, well-priced jewelry websites. Here are my favorites:
1. Arrow & Anchor Antiques – really unique pieces, highly curated collection, great prices
2. eBay – a virtual treasure trove of jewelry from all over
3. Bellflower Bay – continually adding new finds, offers flexible “layaway” plans
4. Gallun Jewelry – over 50 pages of cute little Victorian rings with reasonable prices
5. Beladora Jewelry – been a fan since I visited the company four years ago, awesome pieces

Thanks for this post! It's always hard to find 'reliable' shops online and I appreciate the recommendations!

There is something about vintage jewelry that has my heart hooked. Loved pic #2 – the diamonds and dark accents went beautifully with your polish! 😉

Gallun jewelry in Cedarburg WI is my absolute FAVORITE!! If you can get there go, online is also a great way to see their wonderful pieces.

Gallun Jewelry is a real gem. Knowledgeable proprietors, unusual and beautiful pieces in all price ranges and fair and honorable customer service. They are great to work with in person but also stay on top of posting new online daily listings.

Jenny Lynn May 6, 2013 at 9:02 am:
I've got to say this list kind of surprises me. Lang Antiques, Doyle and Doyle, Leigh Jay Nacht and Georgian Jewelry are my top sites to go to. I can't believe not one was listed. Not only do they have a high selection but also easy to navigate websites. I'll have to give these others a try.
Gem Gossip May 6, 2013 at 3:43 pm:
Hey Jenny,
I wanted to list some antique jewelry websites that are "hidden gems" that most people don't know about. The ones you listed are great–top notch–but most everyone knows of them!
Jason Smith May 8, 2013 at 7:51 am:
Ancona Jewelers is an ideal place for antique jewelry. It is one of my favorite jewelry shop. By online you can see their wonderful collections.

Great list of shops! The only caution I would give is that E-bay will list some jewelry as "vintage style" or "vintage look" which will at times translate to new. But I agree, E-bay can have some exceptional deals! I own an online vintage shop myself and occasionally search these sites for my own shop. The rings are beautiful, and vintage can include so much more. Thank for the post.
India January 26, 2014 at 4:37 pm:
I love this list – really high end pieces. I am huge vintage jewellery fan, I recently purchased a vintage brooch from Mayveda Vintage which was so beautiful. I find it really difficult to find vintage jewellery that doesn't cost the earth. You seem to get more for your money most of the time! Anyway love the blog keep up the good work 😉 India x

Great list of antique jewelry websites!
In Santa Barbara, CA I visited an estate jewelry store, Bella Rosa Galleries.
I purchased an aquamarine pendant necklace, but I was also checking their amazing vintage & antique engagement rings!

Nice Post! I also have my own Jewelry store where you can buy Antique Silver jewelry.
Cosmin Cimpianu July 20, 2016 at 6:35 pm:
Although there are thousands of online antique jewelry shops out there it is fine to have these five as a starting point. Another trustworthy online shop out there is Wild Fish Gems. Since 2003 we offer gemstones that are only natural, unheated and untreated with certificates (included) from 3rd party laboratories that support that claim, and custom jewelry services which is great for someone who is trying to have e.g. a ring or a pendant made for a special occasion. Two services in one single place.

Like you said, eBay always has a good selection of antique jewelry. I've never heard of these other stores, though. I will have to check them out. You can also check out Etsy for antique and vintage jewelry. You can usually get things for pretty cheap!

Srchie.com claims to be the world's largest online flea market & can help you search millions of vintage & antique jewelry for sale in one online location. It is very helpful as it saves the time and energy of searching multiple websites.
The jewelry section can be found on https://www.srchie.com/srch/jewelry-and-watches

Another favorite of mine is Srchie. Saves you time by searching all the big vintage and antiques websites like Etsy and Rubylane.

Nice Collections, Thank you for the tips.
Oren Richards July 12, 2017 at 10:01 am:
Love the photes. Love Arrow and Anchor. One of my new favourites is Penlingtons of London. Seem to be a relatively new start but bought a lovely ring from them and came with free shipping which was a nice touch.
Madeline July 20, 2017 at 12:11 pm:
I love your article, it's super informative.
I recently discovered Penlington's, they seem fairly new but I already love the jewellery they have on their site!
I've already bought a beautiful Victorian ring from them, which I'm so happy with and I felt really looked after through the whole buying process. Check out their rings, they have a really cool website too!
