We always feel that pearl jewelry has a texture like that of an oil painting.
Probably because the rise of oil paintings, together with the pearl fashion led by Queen Elizabeth I,
collectively formed the jewelry aesthetic of the entire Renaissance period.
During her coronation in 1558, Queen Elizabeth I adorned her hair with large drop - shaped pearls,
wore several strands of pearl necklaces around her neck, and her clothes were also adorned with pearls.
Suddenly, pearls became extremely popular in Europe.
Queen Elizabeth I had to issue a "Pearl Decree", allowing only the nobility to use pearls.
In portrait oil paintings, of course, the highly skilled masters couldn't help but depict and restore the luster of pearls.
And two - layer pearl necklaces became the mainstream for quite a long time.
