«This issue marks the 5th Volume of the Journal of Jewellery Research. It is an exciting small landmark and a good place to be since the initial idea for the journal in 2015, the first call for papers in 2017 and the launch of volume 1 at Schmuck Internationale Handwerksmesse in Munich in 2018. It was a big event to publish the first volume and it brought together a
diverse group of authors to share and discuss their views and research on issues related to the wearing of jewellery as a sign of individual positions in society, cultural and societal changes, including jewellery as an aid for wellbeing and healing processes. Since then, a steady growth of interest in jewellery research has helped us to publish a volume each year. This year we are very pleased to announce the publication of five papers.
…
We are proud of publishing a 5th volume, and that it is free to read and publish in – we see this as an important way to provide accessibility of the work and hopefully a welcoming forum for jewellery research of all kinds. In developing this journal, we continue to pursue ways of enabling academics, practitioners, and independent writers to communicate research/practice with a variety of approaches that are paramount in our field.
We hope you enjoy this volume of the journal.»
