Animals in Jewellery
Animals have always been a favourite motif in art and cultural history. Their shapes are used in a wide variety of artefacts and, of course, in jewellery. Originally, the adaptation of certain animals for various pieces of jewellery was associated with the idea that the physical properties and characteristics of these animals would also be transferred to the owner of the piece of jewellery. Amulets and talisman jewellery from the earliest cultures bear witness to this practice. Find out more"

Animal jewellery: from talisman to pure adornment
The jewellery often features symbolically charged depictions of animals or mythical creatures. They are supposed to protect against evil or protect against the evil eye. However, since the 1940s and 1950s at the latest, the purely decorative aspect of animal depictions has taken centre stage. Exotic animals and birds were ideal for imposing, colourful brooches and other pieces of jewellery that reflect the full diversity of the most exquisite gemstones.
