1970s Jewellery

This 10-part series is a journey in "Jewellery Through the Ages" beginning in the Georgian era and going all the way up to modern day.

This episode is all about the 1970s. A major paradigm shift in society sees a kind of individualism take over from the revolutionary collectivism of the 60s and we discuss how this new found move towards self-expression impacted the fashion trends and jewellery of the time.

Jewellery Icons of the 1970s are Elizabeth Taylor and Maria Felix.

Producer: Ross Hannon
