Please note: We are not purchasing jewelry from individuals at this time and do not offer ring mountings for sale without a center stone. We offer only high quality jewelry and stand behind all purchases with a no questions 60 day money back guarantee. It is a bit nerve wrecking to buy anything really expensive online, especially a wedding ring.
An authentic antique engagement ring comes from a certain historical Era. Truly vintage engagement rings are from the 1980's or older, which includes all the earlier periods as well. These Eras are the inspiration for our company name, EraGem. Victorian Engagement Rings 1837-1900 were primarily crafted of yellow gold, the halo setting was popular, and the tradition of engagement/wedding rings became widespread.
Estate Jewelry describes pieces that were previously owned, it sounds more elegant than used or old jewelry. Both vintage and antique are types of estate jewellery. Antique Jewelry is typically at least 100 years old but often Art Deco jewels crafted during the 1920's to 1930's are included. Fine antique jewelry is generally made of either yellow gold or platinum.
This gorgeous bi-color sapphire engagement ring is centered with one (1) round brilliant cut no heat Nigeria origin sapphire weighing 1.62 carats and set into a four-prong head. The sapphire displays a rich teal top and bottom and a vibrant yellow in the middle. The shoulders of the ring are each accented with one (1), channel set, tapered baguette cut diamond.
EraGem features the Northwest's best selection of pre-owned jewelry treasures. EraGem is primarily an online jewelry company, all our current in-stock jewelry has detailed photographs and descriptions on our website. If you find an item or style of jewelry in our inventory you would like to purchase, we encourage you to ask any questions via email (contact form) or phone (800) 417-1925, and then purchase directly through the website.

How fortunate was I to find EraGem when searching for a retirement gift for my beautiful wife.
Purchasing a piece of jewelry, sight unseen, can be very nerve racking. Michael answered every email I wrote, no matter when I sent it. I certainly did not expect return emails after hours but he did. He was patient and put me at ease throughout the process.
The ring I chose is perfect - more beautiful in person than on line.
You will not be disappointed if you work with EraGems for your special purchase.
The packaging was first class and all documentation was sent with the ring. And it arrived before

I bought a beautiful ring from EraGem online and have been so pleased with my experience. After having the ring for a couple of months it was damaged. The process to have it repaired was so easy and stress-free. The team at EraGem answered all of my questions (some of them were a little crazy). They were professional and prompt. I will definitely buy from them again. And I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone looking for a unique piece of beautiful jewelry.

The first time I saw their website I knew I loved their jewelry. I dropped that tip in my then, boyfriends ear. Two years later he presented me with my dream ring. We went to another jeweler to have the band added. Eragem had communicated with him a lot before the sale. When I got my ring it was in a nice box inside of a larger rectangle box with the official ring documents. The ring is stunning and the quality is superb. Definitely recommend.

Excellent and personal customer service. I highly recommend Era Gem. The ring was delivered with no issues and sized perfectly. I was pretty stressed out about the whole process and dropping a ton of cash on a ring sight unseen but they were in constant contact and always available to answer my calls. I will be a repeat customer for sure. Thank you Era Gem!

We bought my engagement ring through Eragem online and I love that it's one of a kind, antique and super unique! While in Seattle we decided to go visit in person. Mark and his staff were amazing! Even though they do most of their business online they took time for us to show me the pieces that I was interested in and help me find a band for my engagement ring. I love love love this company and their products! Highly recommend!

I am very happy with this company and my ring purchase! I was trying to decide between two rings, one with Eragem and one with Brilliant Earth. In the end, Eragem's customer service won me over. I received very fast personal and thorough responses to all of my emails, unlike the many other companies I spoke with. The ring was resized and shipped to me within only a couple of days after purchase. I will purchase from this company again and again!

I can't say ENOUGH GREAT THINGS about this business. They sell BEAUTIFUL and very high quality Estate jewelry (I believe all their jewelry is Estate jewelry, as I always want my reviews to be 100% accurate).
I have bought 5 pieces' of stunning jewelry from them in the past 5 years' and amazingly, have never been to their actual jewelry business located in Bellevue WA yet. EraGem does such an EXCELLENT job at presenting and showing their wonderful jewelry selections, that it is the ONLY jewelry store I have ever felt confident enough to shop at online, versus going there in person

I absolutely loved working with EraGem. They're customer service was amazing, and they went above and beyond for my Fiancé and I. We ordered the ring and received it within just a couple of days, and this was with then resizing it. They have so many beautiful rings to choose from. I absolutely recommend them.

Excellent customer service. My husband surprised with two rings for our anniversary last September.
One needed to be resized. I dropped it off on a Friday and picked it up on that following Thursday. It was resized correctly and cleaned.
Just recently purchased a pair of earrings and men's ring, bought them on a Thursday, ready for pick up the following Monday. Brought in another ring that needed to be fixed and they did it on the house for me, was ready within 24 hours.
Fantastic customer service, personable owners. Will continue to patronize this local business.

So happy I came across this site via Google. I was seeking a palladium engagement ring and had few options available online and in-person.
But when I came across this 1940s palladium ring, I knew I found the perfect ring. Their rep sent me more pictures, videos, etc. I never felt rushed.
The ring looked even better in-person and the history lesson behind it makes this ring one of the best things I've ever bought in my life.

Truly I was apprehensive about such a large purchase all online, but to my pleasant surprise Eragem has far exceeded my expectations.
The buying process was simple, easy to use and secure. I felt they handled my order quickly and was given email confirmation almost instantly.
The shipping process was flawless, as was the ring. The package it came in and the documents were prepared professionally and the package was befitting the price we paid for jewelry site unseen. The ring exceeded the pictures. I felt we got a great value for what we wanted and are very happy with it. They sized it initially

I was really worried about purchasing on line. I found these earrings and really wanted them - they were appraised at quite more that I paid - I took them to my local jeweler because I had 60 days to return...they were appraised at 1000.00 more that the original appraisal and 2200.00 more than I paid. I am really impressed and the items they have are beautiful... I just like to window shop there from time to time ( on my computer of course - I live in Athens Ga.)

EraGem was an absolute gem to work with! I bought my fiancé her ring from here and the customer service was excellent.
It is a bit nerve wrecking to buy anything really expensive online, especially a wedding ring. But EraGem put me at ease with their prompt communication and answered all my questions.
I highly recommend buying from EraGem because of their quality and transparency when it comes to certified gem documents.
They priority shipped me my ring and it was available the next day in Los Angeles, CA!

The best most honest person and place is EraGem at 1200 N. East 8th also in Bellevue. Their phone number is 206-832-6850 Michael is the owner. He is most accurate knowledgeable fair and honest. He offered a fair price for outstanding jewelry.
Originally I charted 11 stores that would buy our precious jewelry. After looking them over on yelp and elsewhere on the Internet we focused on 5 stores to drive around for a price quote in one day. We started early in the morning and finished at 5 PM here with EraGem.
I asked each store if they would hold their price quoted today until 5 PM. Each

Quite happy with my experience. I was able to purchase a one of a kind/unique vintage engagement ring which I knew my girlfriend would prefer to a new edgy cut modern ring. The ring I wanted was a bit pricey, but they helped me out with a down payment and allowing me to pay the remainder a bit later and not lose out on the ring. They were very accommodating in letting me pick up the ring after hours, and provided good customer service. There are allowing us to re-size the ring with them complimentary which is a very nice touch. Beyond all this, the ring was a big hit. She is hesitant to even give

Era Gem truly is as good as it gets.
I was searching for an engagement ring for my girlfriend who loves vintage jewelry when I came across the Era Gem website. Their site is easy to navigate with excellent pictures. Everything from the ring size, to clarity, to the year it is from is explained in detail for each piece. Very informative and easy.
I didn't really realize that their store is by appointment only, but when I showed up, they accommodated me without one. It was very personal, just me and the jewelers. I didn't feel pressure to buy, or like they were upselling me at ANY moment
