1960s Jewellery

This 10-part series is a journey in "Jewellery Through the Ages" beginning in the Georgian era and going all the way up to modern day. We have arrived in the swinging sixties, a decade of sweeping social change and political unrest, when an entire generation of young people all over the world broke free from society's norms and went their own way. We discover how this counter-cultural revolution impacted the jewellery from the time. Jewellery Icons of the 1960s are Jackie Kennedy Onassis and Sean Connery. Producer: Ross Hannon www.courtville.ie
