Unusual Victorian Jewelry Trends - Sundae Brunch Replay 20/08/23

Every second Sunday you are invited to a live Sundae Brunch on YouTube!

The purpose of this live & interactive series is to cover topics including: jewelry sourcing, jewelry identification tips, and how to research and care for our pieces. We'll also take look at some of my vintage and antique jewelry finds.

This is the fifteenth episode, focusing on unusual Victorian jewelry trends!

The rise of literacy impacted society in a meaningful way - and even spilled into jewelry design. We'll look at puzzle name brooches, and lockets with hidden meaning. We'll also talk about how technological evolutions influenced jewelry - from verge fusee watch escapement upcycling, to stanhopes and more!

Join me to see some unusual treasures, and learn how and why they 'came to be'- and leave with a new appreciation for the quirky and repressed Victorian culture!

No Sundae Brunch would be complete without our "spot the listing error" segment, and we will wrap things up with a live treasure hunt!
