Seasons change. Fashion changes. So does the styles and accessories. But one thing has always remain constant – our love for jewelry. Come fall, come spring, the styles and trends of jewelry may have changed. Various elements or materials have ruled different times and different seasons; some have successfully made a comeback like Pearl Jewelry, gemstone jewelry, and some have always been around like gold, silver and beads. Sometimes, the trend is brought on by new inventions, and sometimes the credit goes to the various fashion designers around the world.
Jewelry has never been restricted to one gender. Both genders have equally loved wearing jewelry right from the start of human evolution. With time, this love for jewelry has evolved along with human development and evolution of jewelry. Today, we have men donning and flaunting neck chains, rings and bracelets. Men flaunt different kinds of bracelets and pendants that best express them or their mood.
Jewelry has never been restricted to any particular strata of the society or any particular clan or tribe. Everyone loves wearing jewelry and everyone has their own set of trinkets for different kinds of occasion. Even the tribal communities have their own kind of jewelry, which are most of the times made by themselves and, therefore, are closer to nature. On second thought, some people, though they belong to different strata of the social hierarchy, prefer tribal jewelry as these ornaments have a very ethnic touch.
Apart from tribal jewelry, people prefer jewelry of other materials such as beads, pearls, gold, crystal, silver, platinum etc. The list is endless. In fact, it is not what material the jewelry is made of; rather, it is about what goes best with your personality, the surroundings you are in, your social status and the occasion you are part of.
