Inspiration

The Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg contains a small sampling of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century jewelry. The pieces are valued more for their beauty, or their historical associations, than their monetary worth. Precious and semiprecious stones - diamonds, rubies, emeralds, topaz, and garnets - were as highly prized in the colonial period as they are today, as were gold and silver. Pearls were popular in Early America, appearing in portraits, illustrations, and extant jewelry examples in our collections.
