Today overshadowed by female jewelry, male jewelry has long been a real craze. Much more than an element of adornment, it is at once a social and cultural marker, an instrument of power assertion, a communication tool and a fashion accessory. It crosses symbolic and ornamental functions.
The conversation will be an opportunity to rediscover the importance of male jewel in History.
This online conversation will be broadcast live from L’ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts in Paris.
