Collection: Old English

Old English scrolling began on monastery pages in Medieval Europe and eventually became a hand-engravers art for decorative work.  Brought by European jewelers relocating to Hawaii, these scrolling patterns came into wide use in Hawaii during the Victorian Era when trade goods and styles brought in from England were the height of popular culture.  Incorporated into Hawaiian Heirloom Jewelry, the scrolling patterns evolved to rolling leaf and curl designs to better compliment the existing soft Hawaiian floral patterns.
