Keep your classic jewelry

 

Keep your classic jewelry in a jewelry box and never pull out jewelry when you want to wear them as they lose their luster, rubbing against each other. Always clean your vintage jewelry before and after you wear it and store the pieces back in the boxes. To avoid scratching, you must always store your vintage jewelry separate and not with other jewelry items. You can even store them in separate pouches if you do not have a jewelry box.

Topaz is the birthstone for those who were born in the month of December. I have developed a fascination for topaz after learning that it is my birthstone. Presently I have collected quite a sizable blue topaz jewelry collection. My favorite is a pair of earrings given to me by my husband on Mother's Day. Topaz is inexpensive, although it has a dazzling shine and hue that can rival any other gemstone.

This disconnection from the true and pure meaning of jewelry can be attributed to the materialistic mindset that's prevalent today. Jewelry is viewed as a status symbol or an investment, thus the price of the jewelry is given more weight. Unless people learn to appreciate and give value to the artistry behind the design of the jewelry, true appreciation of the art of jewelry making may be slow to come by.

There's a profound truth to the saying, "It's not the cost of the gift, but the thought behind it." Gifts of jewelry create precious memories, yet all too often the person giving the gift feels as though he must spend more than he can afford in order to demonstrate his feelings to the woman he loves. Unfortunately, the jewelry industry often reinforces this belief, going so far as to offer guidelines about what a man should spend on an engagement ring, for example. (The "guideline" is two months' salary.)

pearl strands wholesale requires consent I didn't consent. I wasn't even conscious and I generally don't have sterling silver 925 when I'm unconscious. RAPE ISN'T EVEN ABOUT SEX. It's not motivated by desire. RAPE IS ABOUT VIOLENCE AND CONTROL AND FORCE. A robber might use a gun or knife as a weapon. THOSE WHO RAPE USE SEX AS A WEAPON. Sometimes they use sex and a knife or a gun or in my case pearls and crystals necklaces and amnesiac drugs. I avoid the term DATE RAPE DRUGS here because I wasn't on a date when this stranger decided to drop something into my drink, follow me from the bar then rape me.
