Talk:Blackamoor (jewelry)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Why moved from Maure

I am not an expert on this topic, and the facts I have posted have been gained through my personal experience in art and design (as well a reading lots of W magazine), so when Blackamoor was moved to "Maure," I merely assumed whoever did so, knew more about it than I did. However, after a little more investigation I can find no instance where the jewelry or figurines I describe are referred to as "Maure." So, I ask your advice. Should I move to have Blackamoor returned to its own entry, Blackamoor (jewelry)? What is really needed is an expert in the field to tell us what to do. Lacking that, I've only been able to say what isn't right (when is not constructive). --Jhlynes 00:39, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm goldsmith and knowlegable but not expert on jewelry history. IMO this is a fine little article in just the right place. Blackamoor is a jewelry form and righfully so. Again, IMO Jjdon (talk) 01:32, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
