week 1 > A PIECE OF JEWELLERY FROM THE PAST

The birth of necklaces is believed to be as old as the Stone Age, which is around 40,000 years old. The oldest necklaces were made of purely natural materials - before weaving and the invention of string, durable vines or pieces of animal sinew left over from hunts were tied together and adorned with shells, bones or teeth or colourful skins of human prey animals, bird feathers, corals, carved pieces of wood, colorful seeds or stones or naturally occurring gems, or other beautiful or artful natural elements found nearby.

A variety of new metals are available for necklaces that earlier generations could not properly melt until high-temperature crucibles and blowtorches were developed. The development of technology we can use more metal and precious stones, it also means going to spend more on one artwork. So then those beautiful necklaces and jewellery more owned by the royal family and nobles. So a beautiful necklace but also a symbol of the rights and dignity. I really like this emerald necklace, which consists of Queen Elizabeth saved, exquisite workmanship, even now also a beautiful and stylish necklace. Each jewel is crystal clear, with diamonds all the more emerald sheen.
