Jewelry Boca Raton

Jewelry has been a part of our lives for thousands of years.  Human beings have always dressed ourselves up by wearing jewelry.  It helps us express how we are feeling and what we want to look like.  This Fall, there are five jewelry exhibitions that everyone should see.  They are from all different time periods and feature different brands of jewelry Boca Raton.

1.   Glittering World: Navajo Jewelry of the Yazzie Family

In November, there will be 300 pieces of Navajo jewelry at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian.  The museum is located in downtown Manhattan.  All of the jewelry is authentic.  It features a lot of diverse designs that show a history of migrations, trade, and cultural exchange.  The jewelry shows reciprocity, harmony, balance, and respect for family, all things Native American’s have always preached.

2.  The Power of Style: Verdura at 75
