    Dear fellow collectors,
    As I have already announced at some of you I have written my report on my visit to the only jewelry museum in Pforzheim, Germany in the world. Today, the Schmuckmuseum’s collection contains thousands of historical and contemporary items from Greek, Etruscan, and Roman antiquity; the Renaissance and Baroque eras; and the Art Nouveau period, which is known in Germany as Jugendstil. The earliest pieces in the Pforzheim collection date from the latter half of the third millennium BC;
    There are pictures of beautiful antique jewelry to see in this museum. I hope you will enjoy just as the undersigned.
    You can find the article and photos on the main page of Collectors Weekly or via this link:

      Congratulations on your much-deserved triumph, Agram!!! : )

      I am struck by the mourning ring here. I have never seen a skeleton encased in a ring. Thank you for posting it.
