Die Edwardiaanse era is vernoem na Engeland se koning Edward VII en verwys na die kort tydperk van sy bewind tussen 1901 na 1910. Gedurende hierdie tydperk, die handwerk van juweliersware het floreer, met baie nuwe style en materiale wat die toneel betree. Platinum het die gunsteling metaal geword, as it allowed for delicate filigree work without losing its strength and integrity, while diamonds, colorful gemstones and elegant metalwork became the norm.
Jewelry was worn to show rank and wealth, and the jewelry designs were meant to convey power and majesty with their elegance and delicacy. Although the period ended very quickly, effectively dying out with the First World War, it has had a lasting impact with elements of the era influencing vintage and modern designs alike today.
