Take flight! There is no other creature so dually harmonizing pure aesthetic beauty and meaningful imagery than the bird. We discuss the origins of bird jewelry (about 130,000 years ago) and trace mankind's fascination with birds rendered into bling through ancient civilizations, Napoleon, World War II and into the modern high jewelry houses like Tiffany & Co's iconic "Bird on a Rock" and a certain controversial Cartier flamingo... The combination of symbolism and beauty (plus they can fly!) makes the bird an enduring, favorite jewelry motif worthy of analysis.
