Bespoke jewellery designed, diamond grader and goldsmith with 30 years experience, using precious &

The most intimate Victorian jewelry wasn't made from gold or gemstones, it was made from human hair. Long before photography became commonplace, Victorians turned to a deeply personal material to preserve memory: human hair. Woven into rings, lockets, brooches, and watch chains, mourning jewelry transformed strands of hair into lasting keepsakes, allowing loved ones to remain physically present long after death. The practice may seem unusual today, but in the 19th century it was an expression of grief, love, and remembrance. Seeing hair return as a powerful symbol in the haunting opening titles of the new *Wuthering Heights* adaptation is a reminder that some ideas, (memory, loss, and longing), never truly leave us. Swipe through to explore the history behind these remarkable pieces. slide 1 image @hairanthropology slide 6 image @mementos_entwined . . . . . . . antiques, antique history, curiosities, oddities 18/06/2026
