Like a window to the past, the unique gold jewellery offers a glimpse into other times. The Halsbandaffaire presents treasures from three centuries, from rococo jewellery to selected pieces of modern jewellery.

Antique jewellery: buy online and on site
In our online shop, we present antique jewellery from around 1750 to the present day. Selected modern pieces of jewellery from current collections of small, fine manufacturers, preferably from Germany and Italy, complete the range. We also produce our own designs such as coloured stone and cultured pearl necklaces, bracelets and earrings in our own workshop.
The Halsbandaffaire was founded in 2011 by art historian, gemmologist and diamond appraiser Christiane Scharrer-Sieb. We invite you to experience the history of antique jewellery both online and in our shop in Munich-Schwabing.
Unique antique jewellery from three centuries
There are many reasons to buy and wear antique jewellery: a ring for an engagement, a sense of individuality or an appreciation of unique craftsmanship. The old goldsmith's work is unique, in keeping with the fashion of the time it was created, but has lost none of its balanced beauty to this day. What's more, antique jewellery always tells us its story.
Discover our beautiful pieces of jewellery from the Art Déco, from the first half of the 20th century, from the turn of the century and Art Nouveau, Historicism and Belle Époque as well as Biedermeier. Find your new favourite piece of jewellery and wear it, because antique jewellery is not there to be displayed, but to be worn and given new life.
What makes antique jewellery so special
Antique jewellery from past eras always tells a story that is worth discovering. At all times, jewellery was an important signal for people to underline their own personality and to please. In addition, individual jewellery gave people the opportunity to express feelings such as love and loyalty, family ties, friendship or memories and souvenirs.
Antique pieces of jewellery are unique, one-of-a-kind pieces of the highest quality craftsmanship that have survived peacetime and wars, and have been loved and cherished. From generation to generation, jewellery experiences the changes in our society and is ultimately an eloquent witness to its own time of origin for us today.
Holding old jewellery in your hand always means reaching respectfully for a small piece of a bygone era. Wearers of antique jewellery are characterised by their keen eye for timeless beauty and genuine quality, signalling individual style and true connoisseurship.
Let yourself be enchanted by our selection of antique earrings, because earrings are among the dominant pieces of jewellery in all eras. However, the shape is always characteristic of the respective period of origin and ranges from stud earrings to long pearl earrings.
Antique rings
Rings are among the longest worn pieces of jewellery that have had a symbolic value for thousands of years. An antique ring can also be worn independently of other pieces of jewellery. Discover our antique rings from different eras. You can also find signet rings and men's rings here.

Whether diamond, gold or pearl necklaces, you will always find the right model to set special accents with your antique necklace. Chains and necklaces have undergone many changes over the last three centuries and so we can find very different designs from different eras that still enchant us today.
