Jewelry

Jewelry’s first uses were for showing wealth, storage and pinning clothes together. Today, however, jewelry’s most common use is decoration. Early pieces of jewelry were made of more natural sources like bone, animal teeth, carved stone, wood, and shells. In the past, jewelry was made to show importance or status in society. It was not uncommon for them to be buried with their jewelry. Select this link to view our Crystal Lapel Pin.
Ancient Egypt showed the first signs of jewelry making some 3000-5000 years ago. They chose gold over other metals for their jewelry because of it’s rarity, luxury, and the workability of the metal. Jewelry came to show religious power and symbolize power in the Egyptian society. Worn by the powerful in life, jewelry was also worn in death, being placed in their tomb at the time of burial. You can still see the many different uses jewelry still has today in many cultures. People show their association with a group or organization by wearing jewelry. For instance, the Star of David or the Christian crucifix are examples. In Western culture, the wedding band symbolizes the union of marriage. And in some cultures wearing amulets or other pieces of jewelry are said to help ward off evil spirits or are used for protection. Select this link to view our Crystal Favor Pins.
