For thousands of years, wealthy rulers and their families have used gold, silver, gems, and pearls to ornament themselves with costly, intricate, and often symbolic jewelry to show their social status. Beautifully crafted adornments of crowns, earrings, pendants, and bracelets provide eye-catching insights into centuries of history from Persia, Korea, Indonesia, China, and India (to name just a few). Join us to learn more about some of the wearable artworks in the Asian Art Museum’s collection during this presentation.

This one-hour virtual lecture by one of our museum community speaker docents is followed by a half-hour Q&A.
