Used jewelry
Opposed by definition to new jewelry, second-hand jewelry is part of a logic of revaluation of pieces worn, then put aside by their owners out of weariness or lack of opportunity. A radical change in style can also explain why a once beloved piece of jewelry is now hated or at least forgotten at the bottom of a jewelry box.

Second-hand Chanel, Boucheron or Cartier jewelry rubs shoulders with nameless pieces without any hierarchy through our online store.
Signed or unsigned, second-hand jewelry makes luxury accessible to a greater number of consumers. Less expensive than their new versions, they then invite fine jewelry into the consumption habits of lovers of fine jewelry on a limited budget, demonstrating an inclusiveness which certainly contributes to the growing popularity of second-hand jewelry in our modern societies.
Why choose second-hand jewelry?
In addition to greater accessibility, second-hand jewelry is also distinguished from new jewelry by greater eco-responsibility. Faced with a double logic of overproduction and overconsumption, more and more second-hand gems are in circulation, in search of a new owner. Giving them priority therefore amounts to encouraging the circular economy, which guarantees a reduction in production and better management of natural resources by extension.
Accompanied by precious materials such as gold, silver, diamond and other (semi-) precious stones commonly used by jewelry artisans of yesterday and today, second-hand jewelry already products and put back on sale seem to us to deserve the right to be seen, worn and transmitted endlessly, in the same way as new pieces.
Beyond their eco-responsible dimension, we also love second-hand jewelry for the beautiful life stories they have to tell us. At Castafiore, we often prefer to talk about second-hand jewelry, an expression which seems to us to stick more faithfully to the singularity of these jewels with a sometimes rich and poetic past.
Behind a second-hand piece of jewelry hides, for example, a love story, a friendly encounter or any other unique life moment capable of awakening our sense of imagination. If new jewelry is synonymous with neutrality, second-hand jewelry is the perfect symbol of the jewelry of life(s), a universe filled with treasures to discover with a smile on your lips and stars in your eyes.
