Modern day photographs of Beijing and the Forbidden City provide me with a style and theme for my early presentation boards. These images were found on Google Earth and allow me to imagine how a gallery themed around Ancient China should look. The fact that these palaces have been preserved and opened to the public show the potential for educating tourists about Ancient Chinese life. The Western market are also interested in the culture and History behind these sites, generating huge markets selling replica goods of this original style and symbolic nature of these items. I have recently found a collectors guide to Hair comb collecting which sites Oriental design as a major influence in Art Deco Jewelry. After further researching jewelry trends on the internet it appears that there are many collectors and enthusiasts who would love to own a piece of Oriental jewelry for themselves at present day, due to their vintage appeal and high value.
