What is Jewelry

What is Jewelry? 

Jewelry had an important role in humans life during history. In old times jewelries and accessories were used as functional aims, however these days jewelries are used as an beauty symbol. As an example the pieces which were used to attached textiles in old times are today used as accessories and as an part of pieces to show Outlook better. 

First jewellery and accesories were sea shells, bones, animal teeths, Stones and wood. Jewelleries in old times were manufacturing for special persons, they were manufactured to show that persons status. In old times jewelleries were buried with their owners. Jewellery and accessories could be made with every tool in the nature and they could be used in every part of our body like our hair, arms, ears, finger and etc. 

The Usage of Jewelry 

The usage of jewelry served to many aims until today. Sometimes jewelry were used as an symbol of power and richness and sometimes a symbol to protect their owners from harm. Sometimes jewelry were used as an object to show our status or sometimes they were used as acessories. It is certain that jewelry usage today is just fort o be seen beautiful. When we look at the ancient times we see that jewellries were hidden as material richness. Besides richness jewelries are given to each other before marriage in Turkey. For example in an Turkish society when the boy and his family goes to the girls home to want permission for marriage they give some jewellery to the women as an present. 

Jewellery also can be an symbol of an related of an group or religion. For example Christian use Cross Jewelry, Hebrews use hexagram jewelry, Muslims use jewelleries written god or jewelries in Arabic letters. Also jewelry could be symbol of marriage, engagement . 

History of Jewelry 

Jewelry art comes from 5000 years ago. It is thought that jewellery history starts at Mesopotamia as an job. Jewelleries showed the identity of each culture , jewelleries were integrated with the cultures. When you look at an jewelry from old times you could understand where it comes from. Although jewelleries buried with their owners can be seen a lot in many cultures in anciant times. 

Jewelery in Usa in History 

Jewelry manufacturing in Usa started 5000 years ago in Middle and South United States. Jeweleries were used by only aristocrats to show their chair, power and entity. They were generally using gold in jewelries and they were decorating the gold with bird feathers.Instead of using jewelry they were votiving their jewelleries to God. The other group which were Professional jewellery manufacturers were Mayas.They were also trading precious Stones. In North America jewelleries were made by stones, sea and tree shells and turquoise. Think about the turquoise stones we are wearing today, they also used these stones 5000 years ago.

Jewelry in Turkey in History 

Turkey has an rich heritage from Osmanlı Empire and Seljuk Empire which has developed until today. Jewelery art has a top point during Ottoman Empire. Today is Turkey jewelery is used as a beauty and is available for every welcome level. If you have an high income you can find brand names in Diamonds which are Turkish Brand and has shops in all over the world, if you have middle income you could find thousands of gold shops, or if you do not want to spend a lot in jewelry you could find bujiteria, Fashion jewelry shops even in every corner. 

Costume Jewelry 

Costume jewelry has many similar meaning. Different words are used for mentioning costume jewelry. One of these names are Fashion jewelry. We can call costume jewelry as Fashion jewelry also. Costume jewelry has been manufactured as an alternative to fine jewelry. Because fine jewelry is expensive and people wanted to wear different accessories with different clothes and these made Fashion jewelry popular. Now fine jewelry diamonds or other precious stones are purchased for investment. 

In fine jewelry precious stones like diamonds, emerald, sapphire and gold as an precious metal. Instead of fine jewelry in costume jewelry non precious beads or stones, plastic beads, glass beads are used. 

With mass production of Fashion jewelry the artists also made designs in mass production. In the modern period of jewelry in history big designs were used.
When we look at 20th century we see that costume jewelry has been more popular with the designs of brand names like Chanel, Gucci, Dior. They made people care about costume jewelry more by their designs. 


Buy Jewelry Online 

When buying jewelry online you could be carefull in some points.
• If the wholesalers selling price is so chep than the normal you should be suspicious because these items have a lot of human work on them and can not be sold with so cheap prices.
• The jewelleries should not contain nickel. Because nickel jewelleries makes alergie.
• Ask the seller if he/she could give some references.
• Does she have any comments on her website? Or could she give contunies references?
• Start with an small trial order. Do not accept orders with so high minimum order quantity. With small trial orders you could see the quality of the products that the jewelry manufacturer could supply. After your first order the second order could be bigger, the third order would be more bigger and than an safety bussiness relationship could developt between the jewellery manufacturer and the wholesaler.

Jewelry from China 

 Yes Chinese products are so cheap and affordable but do you prefer buying Chinese jewelry and selling one time use products in your shop? Or do you want to be different from other retail shops, having an concept. I think when wearing jewelry the owner of the jewelry should feel special and could say ‘ I did not see any similar models to my Fashion bracelet’ and she should again come to look at your new models and she should be long term buyer when passing in front of your shop she/he should come in to look at what you have new. 

 Sometimes Chinese products are high quality but just when they manufacture for brand names and when they have to supply quality instead of low price.
