By the end of the Edwardian era, the suffrage movement was in full swing and certain jewelry was meant to symbolize the movement. The color green meant hope, white was for purity and purple signified dignity.
Edwardian jewelry was meant to replicate the patterns of lace and frilly designs in clothing. The Edwardian period was a time of laces, frills and intricate patterns in dresses. It was a celebration of pomp and royalty. This type of design was also transferred to jewelry.
Chokers were made popular by various duchesses and princesses across Europe.
Earrings dangled and were usually encrusted with diamonds or colored gems.
