Royalty Inspired Victorian Jewellery
By Unknown
Queen Victoria reigned over Great Britain from 1836 to 1901 and it is often believed that it was her love and affection for her husband and children that inspired the romantic and sentimental era of Victorian jewellery. It was a time of hugely contrasting classes, social responsibility and dictating etiquette and manners which was reflected in the era’s jewellery production.
Queen Victoria, and therefore Victorian jewellery, popularized mourning jewellery, jewellery that signified a social status and jewellery that signified emotions during a time stifled love and strict courtship rules. Some of the most popular pieces of Victorian jewellery include:
Forget Me Not Rings: identifiable by two hands holding a flower or heart these Victorian inspired rings were traditionally given my husbands or boyfriends to their beloved in order to keep them in their thoughts.
DEAREST Rings: Diamonds, Emeralds, Amethysts, Rubies, Emeralds, Sapphires and Topaz make up the name and the design of a DEAREST ring. DEAREST rings were popular during the romantic Victorian era as the offered a unique alternative to other types of Victorian jewellery and used many precious stones.
Snake Head Rings: Victorian society believed strongly in the romanticism of the snake and no-one was more responsible for this popularization than Queen Victoria herself who had two snake head rings made – one as an engagement ring and one as a wedding ring. The image of a snake’s tail held in its mouth is meant to represent the external cycle of life and eternal love.
Mourning Jewellery: The death of Queen Victoria’s husband Prince Albert saw a rise in the adornment of mourning jewellery, which was worn to signify either a sad or happy event. After the Prince’s death Queen Victoria would only receive visitors who wore mourning jewellery that reflected a true sense of grief or loss. Victorian mourning jewellery can be quite elaborate and many pieces include images of lost ones and locks of hair.
So if you’re after a truly royal inspired piece of antique jewellery then a piece of Victorian Jewellery is for you.

By Jay Roweson
Since time began silver has been highly valued in many forms. In modern society, silver has great value in not only the financial sense but in jewelry. More than ever women all over the world are falling in love with sterling silver jewelry. Let’s explore what makes silver so gorgeous.
It used be simply an old classic piece of jewelry, but it has made a very serious comeback in recent time. Silver, which has been around for centuries is becoming popular again. The simplicity of the color and ease of care has helped it along. Silver is one piece of jewelry that goes with all skin tones, colors and requires little care to keep its beauty. It doesn’t really matter who you are, but silver can align perfectly with no modifications necessary.
In evening functions and parties you must wear some eye-catching jewelry that glorifies your beauty in all ways. Always try to adore silver jewelry, glittering gold jewelry, platinum jewelry, antique silver jewelry, black or white diamond jewelry or sparkling gemstones to relish your inner self-esteem wearing these outstanding designs.
Silver seems to compliment all skin tones and colors. It doesn’t make you look yellow or washed out the way yellow gold does with some skin colors. It looks just as beautiful on a Caucasian woman as African American. It always has a fresh just cleaned looked that seems to fade quickly with yellow gold.
In the future, sterling silver jewelry will become more popular then ever and this movement shall continue. Are you invested in silver today?
