Rooted and Shaped

Years in the Making

For the past four years, we have worked steadily on our new website. Piece by piece, it gradually took the shape we had hoped for. The jewelled bee in the picture felt like the right symbol for that patient work.

‍

Like bees building something of value through countless small, shared efforts, we too have brought many small parts together over time into something we are glad, and even a little proud, to share with you. We hope it may become a lasting source of knowledge for those who come after us.

‍

One of the first things we would like to share with you on the new site is a completely renewed overview of Western jewellery styles, spanning 2,500 years viewed not through general art history alone, but through the jewel itself.

‍

You can explore it here: Adin Antique Jewellery Academy: Styles & Periods.

‍

We wish you much reading pleasure.

Antiqualy yours,

The Adin team
