Over three thousand jewels tell the story of jewellery in Europe from Ancient
Greece to the present. From a great gold Celtic breastplate to medieval love
rings and pendants given by Elizabeth I to her courtiers. From enamelled watches
to diamond tiaras and jewellery in paper, acrylic and titanium. From jewels by
Cartier to animals by Fabergé and jewellery by an international selection of
contemporary makers. The gallery explores how jewels have been not only at the
centre of fashion, but of the deepest human emotions.
