Ancient Treasures: The Birth of Jewelry

The history of jewelry dates back to ancient times, when people began to adorn themselves with materials such as shells, pearls and stones. Jewelry not only had aesthetic purposes, but also symbolized social status, spiritual beliefs, and even protection from evil forces. Gold and silver became the preferred materials of the elite, making jewelry an expression of wealth and power.

Medieval splendor: goldsmithing and precious stones

The Middle Ages brought about a flourishing of goldsmiths, who created magnificent pieces of jewelry for nobles and royalty. Gemstones such as diamonds, rubies and sapphires found their way into royal crowns and pendants, while ornate engravings and delicate details characterized Renaissance jewelry. Craftsmanship reached new heights and jewelry became true works of art.

The Elegance of Modern Times: Stylish Revolutions

With the advent of modern times, jewelry underwent further transformations. The Victorian era gave rise to romantic motifs and sentimental symbols, while Art Nouveau emphasized organic shapes and the beauty of nature.
