Popular in the Victorian era, a gemstone doublet was a clever innovation that allowed for the creation of colorful, gem-like appearances by combining a thin slice of a natural precious gemstone with a base of less expensive material, like glass. This technique enabled jewelers to emulate more costly gems by enhancing the color and depth of opals, emeralds, and other stones, making luxurious jewelry more accessible and versatile. On Victorian. A young Queen Victoria assumed her role in 1837 and her taste in jewelry quickly became culturally influential, within England and beyond. Her relationship to jewelry was enmeshed with her husband, Prince Albert, who gifted the Queen for their engagement, a snake ring, embedded with an emerald (her birthstone) in its head. Continuing from the Georgian era and intensified by Queen Victoria’s taste, sentimental and figural jewelry was a major trend throughout the Victorian era. When certain ideas and words were deemed too forward or improper to be spoken, jewelry and symbolic meaning was used to communicate what was left unsaid. _gsrx_vers_1680 (GS 9.8.3 (1680))
