In 1867 Castellani aroused a certain surprise during the Paris Exhibition, alongside his creations in Byzantine and Etruscan style he exhibited, divided by region, a notable collection of "Italian National Goldsmithing". This collection included necklaces, earrings, hair pins, brooches, bracelets and rings. The aim was to show the Italian goldsmith tradition to the international public and influence modern production. It is therefore not surprising that after the Exposition Universelle, this collection was purchased by the Art and Science department of the South Kensington Museum. In 1884 the Musée des Arts décoratifs in Paris purchased a complete series of jewels from the so called "Peasant Collection" and a group of Indian jewels collected by Alessandro Castellani.

Nel 1867 Castellani desto’ una certa sorpresa durante l’Esposizione di Parigi, accanto alle sue creazioni in stile Bizantino ed Etrusco espose, divisa per regioni,una notevole collezione di “Oreficeria Nazionale Italiana”. Questa raccolta comprendeva, collane, orecchini, spilloni per capelli, spille, bracciali, armille e anelli. Lo scopo era mostrare al pubblico internazionale la tradizione orafa italiana ed influenzare la produzione moderna. Non sorprende quindi che dopo l’Exposition Universelle, questa collezione sia stata acquistata dal dipartimento di Arte e Scienza del South Kensington Museum. Nel 1884 il Musée des Arts décoratifs di Parigi acquisto una serie completa di gioielli della collezione contadina ed una collezione di gioielli indiani raccolta da Alessandro Castellani.
