Fashion is changing, but brooches remain elegant and classic. Although few people have worn them in recent years, more and more people are realizing how beautiful they can be a decoration. The history of these unusual decorations begins in the Bronze Agewhen they were used to fasten winter clothes. Back then it was purely functional. During the Renaissance, brooches evolved into ostentatious decorations worn mainly by aristocrats and members of royal families. They are usually made of gemstones and precious metals e.g. silver and gold.
In the Victorian era, they were worn, among others: by the British royal family. During this time, Queen Victoria gave the brooch a more subdued and mournful design. At the beginning of the 20th century, they underwent a metamorphosis, becoming delicate and simpler. However, Renaissance-like patterns returned after a few decades. In the 1980s, extravagant brooches reigned supreme and went well with the fashion of the time.
In the 21st century, they were somewhat forgotten, but they are slowly starting to come back. Models with insects are the most popular. You will find lots of beautiful brooches with butterflies, bees and other animals. There are also plenty of fanciful shapes and flowers.
