Tea & Gemstones

039. Suffragette Jewelry

Jennifer Sieverling, Jewelry Historian Season 4 Episode 39

"Jewelry is how you show the world what you're thinking without saying a word." This is a popular mantra at Tea & Gemstones. How did Suffragettes -a woman seeking the right to vote through organized protest- use jewelry for their cause? We'll learn how jewelry worked to establish their camaraderie, put forth their message (there's no social media in the early 1900s!), counter hateful propaganda, celebrate getting out of jail... and yeah, tell the world what they thought.
