AJF Reside: “Rings that Rock” on the DIVA museum
The concept that an engagement ring ought to be a diamond solitaire is the best advertising and marketing stunt in historical past. Diamonds have by no means been merely treasured stones—they’ve served as symbols of authority, marked political and household alliances, and sealed intimate commitments. “Rings That Rock,” at DIVA museum, in Antwerp, Belgium, brings collectively an distinctive number of diamond rings to point out how these small objects inform massive tales about altering concepts round standing, id, emotion, gender, and craftsmanship. Be part of Bella Neyman (NYCJW founder and AJF board member) and Catherine Regout (curator, DIVA: museum for jewelry, silver and diamonds) for an enchanting journey of the diamond ring from the fifteenth century to modernity. You’ll by no means see diamonds the identical approach once more.
