About us
On April 1, 2023, Vintage Jewellery officially opened, Julian Oosterloo's second jewelry store. The store sits on the Gasthuismolensteeg, one of the nine streets. For almost a year now, we have a tremendously enthusiastic team full of passion for our vintage jewellery. Besides Vintage Jewellery, we have over 40 years of experience in buying, restoring and selling jewellery. In fact, in 2007 Julian took over his father Tom's jewellery business. Since then, we have worked hard to build websites to sell hand-selected vintage and pre-owned jewellery. By bringing in our own expertise and craftsmanship, we can accomplish every facet from buying to selling ourselves. In addition to selling vintage jewellery, we have also designed our own Atelier collection, which is expanding with time. Thus, our team is extremely creative and we could also help you to design your own dream jewellery, so please stop by our store in the nine streets.
Besides our store in the Nine Streets, we also have a jeweler in Monnickendam, Sako Juwelier. In this store only a different concept applies, here you will find mainly new and/or branded products such as Hugo Boss and Zinzi. Besides new products, they also sell second-hand jewellery, these products are durable but can still be bought new in several other jewelers. Only you can get them at Sako Juwelier for a much better price, from bracelets without stones to rings with colorless stone, such as diamond or zirconia. Also, in Monnickendam we have 40 years of experience in buying old gold, here in Amsterdam we have recently started to do so as well. The price we offer per gram for your old gold can be found on oudgoud.nl. This depends on what carat your old gold is, if you do not know we can always check it in the store for you. So come by one of our stores, you can also take your broken jewellery (and more) and sell it to us.
ENDURING BEAUTY AT VINTAGE JEWELLERY
At Vintage Jewellery, we embrace the timeless elegance of days gone by, with our commitment to beauty going beyond aesthetics. We believe in sustainability as a core value of our mission. Every piece of jewellery we sell carries a story from the past and reflects our commitment to environmental stewardship and responsibility.
But what makes us different?
- Reclaiming heritage: Each piece of jewellery in our collection is carefully selected for its unique history and exquisite craftsmanship. By choosing vintage jewellery, we reduce the demand for new mining and production, helping to conserve precious natural resources.
- Quality and durability: Our jewellery is not only beautiful, but also made to last. By investing in vintage pieces, you are investing in timeless quality and avoiding the disposable culture that is so harmful to the environment.
- Support local retailers: By choosing vintage jewellery, you are not only supporting sustainability on a large level, but also locally. Reusing existing pieces promotes a circular economy and helps preserve traditional crafts.
At Vintage Jewellery, we strive to minimize our carbon footprint and encourage positive change in the jewellery industry. Every piece of jewellery that leaves our store represents not only timeless beauty, but also a commitment to a more sustainable future. Each piece tells a story and contributes to a greener, more responsible world. Choose style with a conscience today.
OUR STORY
Originated as a family business,
grown into one of the largest vintage jewellery specialists in the Netherlands.
The idea of Vintage Jewellery actually came about because while shopping for "old gold," we noticed that so many beautiful treasures were being turned in and eventually taken to the scrap yard. A large collection of jewelry being turned in were simply too beautiful and too special to be melted down. We could no longer get this over our hearts and then decided to restore and or clean them if necessary so that they would be completely ready for a new life. So thankfully everyone now knows better and we are working hard to convince people that buying vintage jewelry has multiple benefits. Therefore, while choosing vintage jewellery is very durable, the jewellery of the past was also made with a certain craftsmanship that you pretty much don't find in today's jewelers. Therefore, we can greatly appreciate the quality and timeless beauty of vintage jewellery. Timeless beauty, high quality and durability are therefore at the heart of Vintage Jewellery. We select the most beautiful vintage gems for you, so that you can enjoy them for the rest of your life.
