About

Contemporary Era

(1970 - Now)
Also referred to as the “More is More” Era. Very large-scale jewellery was starting to be produced as Pop Art and Bohemian fashions came into popularity.

Plastic became a new medium to fabricate jewellery. Other pieces were often made of other unconventional materials such as plastic or wood. Prioritizing self-expression over traditional styles and materials became the new style. Jewellery of this Era was considered “wearable art”.

As we headed into the 1980s, jewellery styles became even more extravagant and large, such as oversized hoop earrings and necklaces which were worn by women in the office with their “power suits”. With women commonly in the workplace now, purchasing jewellery for oneself became increasingly common.

Costume jewellery truly began to take centre stage during the 80s. Neon plastic jewellery was not unusual to see on the younger members of this era- especially in a large statement earring. Another staple of the 80s was cross jewellery, necklaces being the favourite.

Contemporary jewellery is something that will always be in trend, because its something that is “made in current time”.

Diamond - Carbon

The world’s most popular and recognizable gemstone- diamonds first appear in history books as early as the 4th century BC in India where they were used in trade. Slowly, they found their way to Western Europe. By the 1400s, diamonds were becoming all the rage with Europe’s elite. When the 1870s arrived, annual rough diamond production was under a million carats a year and by the 1990s it was over 100 million carats a year. Diamonds are the birthstone for April and are considered the traditional stone to propose with. They rank 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it the defining material for the scale.
