During
the early periods of The Byzantine Empire, jewellery developed as a
continuation of the Roman jewellery both in terms of form and method. The
distictive Byzantian forms, patterns and methods developed after the 6th
century when Constantinople became the centre of jewellery. Furthermore, in
order to improve the court jtewellery, creaion of a Byzantian style was enabled
by sending for craftsmen from Alexandria and Antakya. Colourization of metal,
the unique Byzantian jewellery method began to develop in flashy jewelleries
that were created with precious and semi-precious stones together with precious
metals, especially gold. Just like the Anatolian people before them, the
Byzantians wore their jewellery both for adornment and showing off their wealth
and for protecting themselves from evil and showing their piety. As unique
outputs that blended the traditions of Roman and Hellenistic periods and
Christianity, the Byzantian jewelleries affected both West and the jewelleries
of the Seljuks and Ottomans, who lived in Anatolia after them. As unique

determine the lands-societies that affected and were affected by the Byzantians
in terms of “the history of jewellery” by studying the design, material and
aesthetic values of Byzantian jewelleries.
