Abstract: (450 Views)
Jewelry is one of the delicate crafts that received special attention from the kings during the Qajar era, and had various effects in different fields. Among these, we can mention royal Jeqqe, which were considered the most important court jewels and adorned the crowns of the kings. Due to the special status of Jeqqe and their variety during the reigns of Fath-Ali Shah and Naser al-Din Shah, it seems that the formal quality, execution techniques, and decorative methods used in these works display a dual identity of this art industry. Studying them can lead to a better understanding of the jewelry-making tradition of the Qajar era. The purpose of this research is to study the technical and visual characteristics of jewelry making in Jeqqe attributed to the reigns of Fath-Ali Shah and Naser al-Din Shah. The research questions are: 1- What technical and visual characteristics are evident in the court Jeqqe from the Fath-Ali Shah and Naser al-Din Shah Qajar periods? 2- What are the similarities and differences in these characteristics in the Jeqqe from the Fath-Ali Shah and Naser al-Din Shah periods? In terms of purpose, the research method is developmental and applied, and the research approach is descriptive-analytical with a comparative approach. The information is based on library-documentary sources, focusing on the collection of court jewels from the Fath-Ali Shah and Naser al-Din Shah periods, located in the National Treasury of Iran. The results indicate that the Jeqqe of the courts of Fath-Ali Shah and Naser al-Din Shah share common technical and visual features, such as the use of precious metals like gold and silver, adorned with decorative methods like setting and enameling. Additionally, the court Jeqqe in the era of these two rulers differs in the application of proportions and abstract and realistic patterns.
