TYPE OF MOURNING JEWELRY USUALLY MADE FROM THE LOCK OF HAIR OF A LOVED
DECEASED. HOWEVER, NOT ALL HAIR JEWELRY WAS MOURNING JEWELRY. SOME WAS
ACTUALLY MADE FROM HORSEHAIR BECAUSE IT WAS COARSE AND EASY TO WORK WITH.
IF ONE DID NOT WANT TO MAKE THEIR OWN JEWELRY THEY COULD SEND THE HAIR OFF
TO ANY NUMBER OF PLACES TO HAVE A SPECIAL DESIGN MADE. THERE WERE JEWELRS
IN NEW YORK AND LONDON THAT SPECIALIZED IN MAKING THIS TYPE OF JEWELRY. a
YOUNG LADY WOULD PRESENT HER BEAU WITH A NECKCHAIN OF HER HAIR - THAT WAY
A PART OF HER WOULD BE WITH HIM AT ALL TIMES........HMMMMM. THIS QUOTE FROM
GODEY'S IS TYPICAL OF THE FEELING TOWARD HAIR JEWELRY:
"HAIR IS AT ONCE THE MOST DELICATE AND LASTING OF OUR MATERIALS, AND
SURVIVES US, LIKE LOVE. IT IS SO LIGHT, SO GENTLE, SO ESCAPING FROM THE IDEA OF
DEATH, THAT WITH A LOCK OF HAIR BELONGING TO A CHILD OR FRIEND, WE MAY ALMOST
LOOK UP TO HEAVEN AND COMPARE NOTES WITH THE ANGELIC NATURE -MAY ALMOST
SAY "I HAVE A PIECE OF THEE HERE, NOT UNWORTHY OF THY BEING NOW.".
