The Power and Vanity in Wearing Jewellery

Repelling evil forces, arousing the spirit of good luck, healing sore muscles, pleasing the gods, tempting a valiant warrior, wooing the heart of a queen — these are why jewellery was hailed in past civilisations. It was not only considered to be a thing of beauty; it was powerful, it was magical. It adorned the temples of gods and the palaces of emperors.

It caused proud women’s hearts to soften and it had the power to attract even the most prudish gentleman. These days, jewellery is no longer a luxury that only the moneyed elite can afford. With all the materials and machines for mass production, as well as schools that teach arts and crafts, even your average Jane could go shopping for a pair of earrings to make herself prettier. Men, too, enjoy wearing accessories to complement their attires.

Of course, there are still those pieces that require lots of cash — those made of gold, pearls and other precious materials. Although jewellery in modern times is primarily used for adornment and vanity rather than for religion or magic, its wearers still believe in its power to attract affection and, perhaps occasionally, increase a suitor’s chances of winning a maiden’s love. Here in this site is a wealth of information to help you make a statement with the right choice of jewellery.
