Queen Victoria ruled England from 1837 to 1901 and was a major trendsetter of her time. After the death of her husband, Prince Albert, she entered a period of deep mourning that gave rise to mourning jewelry. This style often included black enamel, dark onyx, and symbols that remind us of loved ones.
