Victorian Era- What inspires my jewellery.

Alot of my inspiration on jewellery is based on  the Victorian Era. Why? I don't know, it just attracts me like sugar attracts ants. Maybe it is the romance and peacefulness or maybe the thought of Queen Victoria decked out in bling head to toe and the beautiful gowns she wore.

Well I may not know why I am so infatuated with this but let's take a look at jewellery elements of the Victorian Era.

• Hearts
• Anchors, snakes, crosses, birds, clasping hands, flowers
• Greek, Etruscan, Egyptian revival
• Fligree works of gold
• Lockets
• Jet black enameling
• Dragons, crecents, moons, stars, butterflies, salamanders.
