@anyathroughtime: Yay or nay for the hair jewellery? They had so little to remember their loved ones by (limited photos and certainly no videos) so I think it's rather sweet. I know it's still practiced by a few artists. #victorian #mourning #historytok

Anya you are looking stunning 🥰💞

Emzy :

I think death has become very taboo in modern times. My Nan (born 1930) said they used to keep loved ones at home until the funeral and it was normal to go round someone’s house and there be a coffin in the living room. It seems it’s only relatively recently we’ve become so weird around people dying.

My grandma had those envelopes . I’m 62…

Vic :

Not too sure about the hair jewellery, but on seconds thought it probably would be a nice thing to do with baby’s first hair

So we aren’t the only generation to turn everything into an ✨aesthetic ✨

Eduardo Loto :

Hi, I don’t know if you’ll read this, but I watch your videos and I’m learning British English, so I was wondering if you could add English-Spanish subtitles. I’d really appreciate it. Bye!

ThatsJustJoJo :

I've got a few pieces of memento mori hair jewellery pieces, and many other mourning jewellery pieces made of vulcanite (an early plastic) and Whitby jet. Brooches, lockets, bracelets, pocket watch fobs and necklaces. I even have a Victorian mourning bonnet.

Dani :

I've always loved the idea of mourning jewelry. I want a piece for when both my parents pass

Notthemomma :

Fascinating I had no idea this happened

Jade Griffiths :

Watching the queen and seeing the mourning of her father when he passed and how different it was throughout the years of the royals and traditions is always so interesting no matter how much I know about it 🥺

Kay Langridge :

I have two pieces of hair jewellery and it's such fine work. Not macabre at all 👌

Death photos were happening into the late 1960’s. My great grandfather took a picture next to his dead wife in 1968. ( I didn’t keep that photo)
