History of jewelry

A course that everyone would like to re-attend at every edition! Its beauty and importance cannot be understood except by registering. A journey along a century and a half of history, from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day.
One hundred and fifty years that have dictated the rules and esthetics of modern jewelry and goldsmithing. Knowing the history of the jewel means understanding the costume, interpreting its dynamics, predicting its trends. These are analyzes that you will not be able to find on the web or in jewelery history books because they belong to a wider scoop of reasoning that refers to both sociological observations and the general standards of taste which change from season to season.

All embellished with a very rich and highly selected iconography created by our teacher and made available to our students.
