  Berlin Iron Jewelry

  

   

  Today, we often see jewelry made from silver and gold but in the 19th century, it was common in Europe to see jewelry made from iron! After Napoleon's invasion of Prussia (now Germany), citizens were encouraged to give their gold to Prussia. In exchange, they received iron jewelry, which is known today as Berlin Iron.
