Georgian Brooch, Romanticism Period, Mourning Jewelry: Starting in the late 18th century, Romanticism had a profound impact on the development of western jewelry. Perhaps the most significant influences were the public's fascination with the treasures being discovered through the birth of modern archeology, and the fascination with Medieval and Renaissance art.

Standing apart from the jewelry of the masses, not only through use of precious metals and stones but also though superior artistic and technical work. A category unique to this period and quite appropriate to the philosophy of romanticism was mourning jewelry.
