[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1589806, member: 2844"]This style never traveled to Spain, it is not seen in Spanish jewellery of any period. This is simply because the Citedine style dates from long after the Moorish occupation of Spain (partial). Besides, it is seen more in Tunisia and Algeria, and some in Libya and Egypt. Not so much in Morocco, where the Moors started their conquest of Spain from. So, sorry, no link to Spanish colonials in the New World. There is a 20th century Mexican jewellery designer who was inspired by ethnic jewellery, including the Citedine style. She never influenced NA jewellery makers though. I keep forgetting her name, but I mentioned her before in another thread. Not that it has anything to do with Spanish colonial jewellery styles in the New World....;)[/QUOTE]
