The Back Vault’s edit of signed vintage jewelry is shaped by more than five decades of expertise in diamonds and fine jewelry, and a collector’s eye for what makes a piece truly distinctive. Sourced through a longstanding international network, the edit brings together extraordinary stones, defining designs, and particularly fine examples from the world’s great jewelry houses. That knowledge extends beyond the signature to the history, evolution, and nuances that give certain works their significance. Based in New York and sought out by collectors around the world, The Back Vault offers an extensive selection of jewels with presence, history, and enduring appeal—pieces as compelling to wear as they are to keep.
