If Jewels Could Talk with Carol Woolton

Jewels are the starting point to discuss past eras, romance, lost fortunes, revolution, precious stones and personal histories. This podcast explores every facet of jewellery – from who makes it, to who wears it, and why – and is a must-listen for everyone who loves jewellery or might be buying a piece of jewellery; anyone interested in design and history; and all those who love a rollicking real-life story. Carol Woolton is Britain’s leading authority on jewellery and gemstones and has entertained and informed the readers of British Vogue and Tatler as Jewellery Editor for more than 25 years. She is a writer, lecturer, historian, editor, curator, stylist, and author of five books on the fascinating subject of jewellery. She has contributed widely to magazines, newspapers and online supplements around the world including the Financial Times, Vogue China, Vanity Fair, Air Mail, American Vogue, Tatler and the Daily Telegraph. Carol mentors and promotes young jewellers and designers and is a founder member of the Leopards charity (#londonleopards), established in 2016, to preserve the expertise, innovation and design excellence in jewellery as well as identifying and nurturing young talent critical to its future.

    Great content, horrible audio.
    Get a proper microphone. In this day and age it’s ridiculously easy. The sound echoes like it was recorded in an empty house using a cheap phone set on a table across the room.

    Fascinating!
    The episode with Aja Raden was absolutely fascinating! Great conversation and will be really thinking about how we connect with diamonds, emeralds, the color green, and jewels in general. Thank you for a great listen!!

    Stoned!
    Just listened to the interview w/Aja Raden, author of Stoned. Loved it! Have read the book several times, and she’s just as fascinating an interviewee as she is a storyteller about jewels and why we love them. If you love jewelry be sure to listen to this segment and the entire series.

    Jewelry bias
    The First Lady show was ruined by your disdain. FYI Melania supported American designers-she wore the blue Ralph Lauren suit to the inauguration for God’s sake;Partisanship should be kept at bay in this otherwise amazing podcast.

    Lame
    Could have been an interesting topic with the proper commentary, but this is really just the ramblings of fatuous wind bags.
  • A few little gems
    One of the best!
    I look forward to every new episode!
