Jewellery is the world’s oldest art form. Across every civilisation, it has served as a powerful expression of identity, belief and prestige. From the earliest carved amulets and ceremonial headdresses to the most elegant tiaras, these extraordinary objects tell the story of humanity through the artistry of adornment. This beautifully illustrated volume is both a visual celebration and a cultural exploration—an invitation to discover the craftsmanship, symbolism and timeless allure of jewellery in all its forms. Around the World in Jewellery is published by Qatar Museums in collaboration with L’École, School of Jewelry Arts, supported by Van Cleef & Arpels, bringing together for the first time iconic objects from Qatar Museums’ collections.
