Portugal was relatively isolated from Europe's dynastic conflicts but was favorable situated on the sea route between Southern and Northern Europe. Jewelry making and jewelry styles in this Mediterranean country have been influenced by this heavy trade and exposure to distant cultures. Fine silver and gold pieces and colorful gems have been long produced here, and today’s Portuguese artists incorporate these traditions into their modern works.
