An interesting lecture

Welcome to my blog....mostly metal clay and some inspiration and more along the way!!
Went to a great lecture on Edwardian jewellery at the V&A. Given by Susan Mumford of Antiques Roadshow we covered Arts and Crafts jewellery, Art Noveau (my favourite) and Edwardian Garland jewellery. Loads of inspiration and interesting history, did you know Emiline Pankhurst (of sufragette fame) sold jewellery?
Vevere (above) and Lalique (below) two of my favourite jewellers of the Art Noveau period...
