Suites
Suites, also called ‘parures’ from the French ‘parer’ or ‘to wear’, comprise a set of matching jewellery pieces. A full suite includes a necklace, earrings, bracelet, and brooch, sometimes with an additional hairpiece or tiara, while demi-suites will often simply include a necklace or brooch and a matching pair of earrings. By the mid-eighteenth century, suites crafted from coloured stones and fine goldwork became popular for wear at formal events, and their popularity endured through the nineteenth century.
