In Venice, I met Alberto Nardi, a third-generation representative of the Venetian jeweler well-known for its “moretti”. This jewel depicting Moorish heads today arouses controversy fueled by the new cancel culture: it is associated with racism...

Can a slave be represented like this, decked out in precious materials?”  To answer them and to highlight their beauty rather than any political connotations they might have, he now carves these "Eastern princes" in turquoise, amber, lapis lazuli, etc.    Nardi, the Moor of Venice  https://www.thefrenchjewelrypost.com/en/style/nardi-moor-venice/  Have a look at the french jewelry post Instagram https://www.instagram.com/sandrinemerle/  About the french jewelry post An insider's eye by Sandrine Merle, to help understand jewelry and watches by placing them within fashion, historical, geographical and societal contexts.
