Discover inspirations behind jewellery design in this six-module online course led by Vanessa Cron. See how jewels have shone in fashion and film. Learn about gemstones, gold and silver jewellery and jewelled accessories. Explore jewellery houses like Boivin, Belperron and Fabergé, and spend time with Andrew Prince, the creator of Downton Abbey’s historical jewellery.

Included alongside your lectures, our documentary-style special features form an ever-more important part of your studies in Jewellery: Gemstones, Metal, Fashion, Film and Objets d’art. Each feature is longer and more in-depth than in the first course, which means that you get much closer to exceptional jewellery houses. Linger over the extraordinary jewelled objects of the Cartier historic collection, from Coco Chanel’s enamelled gold vanity case to the Duchess of Windsor’s famous tiger lorgnette. See how the mixture of great creativity and inspired family collaboration come together to give birth to the jewellery of Hemmerle, or see how Scandinavian modernism as well as international designers were the source of extraordinary silver jewels at Georg Jensen. You’ll meet historians, creative directors and family houses, and even see inside their workshops.
