The Antique Ring Boutique was founded in 2019 by Samuel Mee and deals solely in antique and vintage rings: Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, Belle Époque and Art Deco pieces spanning nearly three centuries, sold online and from a Mayfair showroom at 6 Brook Street, by appointment only. Every ring comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Google shows 365 reviews. We analysed 350: 345 are five star and four sit below four stars, with 117 arriving in the past twelve months, a fast-growing record for a specialist. Every stone here is natural by definition, which puts them at No. 3 on our Natural Diamond list.

The stock runs from diamond solitaires and toi et moi rings to sapphires by colour, Colombian emeralds and rubies, from under £4,000 to the high five figures, and a steady share of the business is remote: reviewers describe buying from overseas with the ring shipped out.

Our Top 100 ranks every London business we could verify as a genuine engagement ring jeweller, 311 of them from a pool of 1,120 candidates, on the strength of their Google review evidence. The Antique Ring Boutique ranks #48 of 311.

They also appear on three of our ranked lists: No. 3 on our Natural Diamond list, and they are on our Outside Hatton Garden and No-Pressure Jewellers lists.

This suits a buyer who wants a ring with genuine age rather than a modern setting in a vintage style, and who values the authentication: every piece is certificated, and the knowledge theme in the reviews says the expertise is real. An antique ring is also the sustainable choice, with no new mining behind it.

It suits remote buyers too; the overseas pattern in the reviews is established. Less suited to anyone who wants a brand-new bespoke design or a lab-grown stone; neither exists here, by design.
