Edvardovská éra je pojmenována po anglickém králi Edwardu VII. a odkazuje na krátké období jeho vlády mezi nimi 1901 na 1910. Během tohoto období, klenotnické řemeslo vzkvétalo, s mnoha novými styly a materiály, které vstupují na scénu. Oblíbeným kovem se stala platina, 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.
