The Alcazar Palace of Seville, Spain, was the touchstone for this collection
lavished with European crystals and timeless motifs. Like all Brighton designs, the origins of the Alcazar Collection began with hand sketched renderings.

A combination or Romanesque and Renaissance architecture can be seen in the Alcazar's designs. With stylized hearts as one of its repeating patterns, Alcazar remains steadfastly feminine yet also modern.

Brighton jewelry is created through a multi-step process that begins with a designer's hand sketch. Each piece is cast in solid brass or zinc alloy and is plated in pure silver. Since silver has a natural tendency to tarnish (oxidize) and scratch, we add a protective layer of lacquer to assist in retarding this natural process.

Brighton earring posts, French wires, and lever backs are composed of sterling silver (925). Clip on earrings are not sterling silver, they are stamped brass with a plating finish.
Brighton does manufacture certain ring styles with sterling silver. These rings will have the stamp of 925 on the inside.
