Jewelry has a long history as an important part of many cultures. Until the 1880s and the discovery of diamonds in South Africa, India was the world's only source. Diamonds drew distant visitors to South Asia's shores and the Indian courts were known for their wealth in precious gems. Specific examples of jewelry on display here were worn only by men and others only by women. The turban ornament, for example, was exclusively for the adornment of the king.
