The Late Victorian era (1885-1901) was also referred to the ‘Aesthetic Period’. Conservatism and tradition were rejected. Jewels of this period were different from the previous typed of jewelry. The Jewels became simpler, lighter, smaller (studs…), less heavy, less dark but feminine. These jewels fitted with an active life.
The Romantic period (early Victorian reign, 1837-1860) celebrated and represented the love of a nation for its young queen and the love between the Queen Victoria and her husband. Jewels were used to symbolize and express sentiments.
