The astonishing elegance and diversity of styles and motifs that characterizes the jewelry of the Victorian Era exerts a powerful allure on people, not limited to the antique enthusiasts.
This video outlines the different themes, materials and techniques, such as the extraordinary use of enamel (cloisonné, champlevé, basse-taille), that mark the jewelry creations of this period.
The inspiration to make this video was drawn from the Oscar-winning movie "The Age of Innocence", directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Michelle Pfeiffer, Winona Ryder and Daniel Day-Lewis, a magnificent movie which not only perfectly captures the quintessence of the period, but also features close shots of beautiful Victorian adornments (bracelets, earrings, pendants, etc.).
