- The popularity of black-a-moors originate back to ancient times when used as gifts for protection during wars to our century for being including in a famous novel by Hemingway. The black-a-moors have been appreciated also by persons of international prestige as Barbara Hutton, Ernest Hemingway, Arthur Rubenstein, Elton John, Liz Taylor, and continue to be a longed-for object for élite collectors and for the international fashion.
In the 1920’s and 1930’s exquisite Ebony busts with delicate 18kt collars were sold to visitors in Italy, primarily for use as a charm on their bracelets. This popular use caused extensive damage to many original pieces, so few managed to survive throughout the years. The finest examples of these pieces were sought out by noted artists such as Nardi and other master jewelry designers who turned their remarkable talents to adoring these treasures with lavish jewels in turbans and breastplates. Terry shared in Nardi’s passion in these rare artifacts and created her own exclusive design line of these precious pieces.
In our century the originality and fantasy of the Venetian people created an endless variety of black-a-moors representations: bust and turban have become a space where the best local goldsmith's techniques are represented, with fretworks, engravings and filigrees. In recent times the monochromatism often prevailed with pearls, brilliants, emeralds or rubys for an extremely selected clientele like noble and royal families; even Grace Kelly owned a black-a-moor and the royal family of Spain recently purchased in Venice beautiful black-a-moor brooch. -
