A Course that you would like to attend again every year! You cannot understand its beauty and importance without enrolling. A journey through a century and a half of history, from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. One hundred and fifty years that have dictated rules and canons of today’s goldsmith and jewellery making. Knowing the history of jewellery means understanding the custom, interpreting its dynamics, predicting its trends. These are analyses that you will not find on the web or in jewellery history books because they belong to a broad-ranging reasoning that refers to both sociological observations and aesthetic canons that are different each season. All embellished with a very rich and highly selected iconography created by our teacher and made available to our students.
