Intro
The swinging London of the 1960s engendered an explosion of innovation in the jewelry industry, which spread to the rest of Europe and the USA. Besides jewelry, the exhibition showcases fashion, music, and design from that vibrant period. The timing of the exhibition could hardly be more opportune given that the 1960s and 70s are right on-trend at the moment.
