only to our jewelry is much better and more diversified

The history of jewelry - Throughout time - man (and woman) is trying to stand out from the crowd. Even animals are clean and parade in the mating ritual. This is a natural phenomenon for man and animals.

Early adorned themselves with the fact that people in there - sometimes a string of shells, fish bones and animal claws. Documented examples of the "jewels" can be dated to around 20.000 BC. You are using that might have. We are not very different - only to our jewelry is much better and more diversified.

in different periods have always been used to create a certain status in society - Jewelry has many roles over the years have been. It was also used as a religious proposal, freshwater pearl, decorations for the church and the clergy have the stones to reflect the disease and unhappiness. Jewelry has won a number of roles in human life. Frankly, it's all the same. As a rising young executive does not want to sport Rolex or other shows to succeed? Yes, jewelry is still playing an important role in our society and continue to do so.

History of "costume" jewelry - the history of many sources of credit Coco Chanel (Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel was born in 1883) than the first, to present an acceptable fashion jewelry accessories. In 1910 she opened a hat shop (in France) and in 1913 she began designing and clothing. In 1919 she opened a fashion house where the lady to go and can be decorated from head to toe with clothing and accessories - the "real" and beautiful jewelry! This remarkable woman has developed and published their popular perfume Chanel № 5 @ 1923 When the Second World War was inevitable - she retired (@ 1939), but came out of retirement in 1954, once again dominate the world of fashion. She gave us a wonderful legacy they have passed in 1971.

Several years ago, Ziegfield Follies was an amazing show. Laws and women in suits with rhinestones glittering parade (same as expected so far for the show in Los Vegas). Use these richly decorated costumes and accessories has wonders for making sparkling jewels. As the demand for new and better suits has increased - he has helped many jewelry continue to thrive. My research shows that Hobe was a major supplier and stupidity. It was a good choice - Hobe designed and produced some outstanding piePrior this development - jewelry was known as a fake or imitation jewelry. People to develop and sell, is not considered a true master. Silly helped industry to get the degree of acceptance.

Probably the most important event was Hollywood. In addition to the stars started wearing these extravagant pieces in their films - the average person develops the desire for them. Changes in fashion jewelry, he had to buy much cheaper and more affordable for ordinary people. You can go to the cinema to see your favorite stars and leave the theater and head to the store and buy a similar piece. You can just look like Elizabeth Taylor! Well, almost looking like Elizabeth Taylor.

Back in those days - the average person does not travel a lot. Many of them are nothing more than a hundred miles from their place of birth, but - we had a movie in Hollywood and show us what is fashionable. We could not see what people are beautiful and we wanted to be good people!

Jewelry was developed several years ago. Originally, it was still done by hand - often in gold. The only difference will be a stone or stones. How to go back in time as 3500 BC - Discover the artists that gold has been heated, hammered and shaped to be easy. metals, silver, copper and bronze were also used at the time.

We expected that the definition of wealth - During the kingdom and held court. Precious stones were very expensive! Work was not relevant. When he took Fashion Week stone in his hand - so be it. Jewellers operation of these parts to share the cost of production of precious stones. Traveling with valuable jewelry was not a good idea. The distance between the kingdoms often long and harsh.

History of Robin Hood comes to mind. I do not think that should have been a lot of poor passes, but I think the rich, gold jewelry and is responsible for transport and the environment, suddenly surrounded by thieves and their objects of value. Therefore, the court need luxury items required by their position, but that could address these treasures fly again?

kingdoms of the poor can not afford real gems still project a certain image - the industry was born! This jewelry was well made, still beautiful, and often much more time-consuming because of the design and processing of raw materials in brilliant copy of the original.

As already mentioned - the real gems were expensive and difficult to acquire. Alternatives are needed. How to simulate the shine and brightness of diamonds and precious stones? Finally, the method has been developed on the ground glass to a powder. It can be colored to simulate other gemstones or left the net effect of diamonds. It was put into shape and fired. Hardened paste "can be cut and shape and polished to an acceptable answer.

Countless hours were devoted to the new gems, but labor was cheap and in many professions as to supplement their meager incomes by producing these treasures simulation.

This method, or "stick" George Rhinestone (1701 -1773) Advanced. Mr. Strassmann developed pastes brilliant crystal soil lead, potassium and other additives that could be repeated for different stones are made transparent. This mixture is heated to a certain brilliance and ability to break down the existing light never seen before in the jewelry modeling! He also developed a formula (by adding some metal oxides and salts) for the different colors to simulate produce many other precious stones and precious day. This method was Aftershocks are often called "street" or "glass paste" - in honor of Mr. rhinestones. This is certainly a milestone in the history of the treasures of today.

My favorite factor for the development of our modern fashion jewelry was and remains a Daniel Swarovski. Mr. Swarovski was born in Austria and the "business". He succeeded his father in business, but it was not a slow laborious process of production of these stones. After nearly ten years of research and trial and error - Daniel managed machines, which could reduce the crystal (leaded glass) with greater accuracy and precision that the local artisans produce hope to achieve. A wonderful side effect is that not only are these stones can be cut with more precision, but is much faster.

may be within a few minutes or less reduced - rather than days or weeks to create the best rock! Daniel Swarovski was a great success, china pearl jewelry, but it still was not satisfied. He was always dependent on suppliers for the quality of the crystal to his room while - he began experimenting and eventually developed his own recipe for a thin crystal, which are high lead content. This particular recipe, it seems a perfect combination of perspective and refraction.

That a person could possibly revolutionize the industry? What's left? Well, one thing that the process down quite stuck. The stones were what was expected, is very fast, but - in many cases, these new units was a movie called Space. Here is a bottleneck. So if you can make thousands of stones on the day, but can support only fifty? So, Daniel Swarovski in the foreground.
He has developed tools and techniques to an empty plate at the rear of his car with sheet rock to make costly and time consuming step in the production of high quality stones. Daniel can now produce a lot of stones in the process! Rarely a person does the same for their chosen field, and I admire his skill and ingenuity.

Swarovski stones are widely used in the United States and dominate the market. You can also hear it called Austrian crystals. His legacy lives and society thrives. In 1985 she started her own design and marketing. At present, creator of the Swan label, and I think they are very collectible. We are fortunate to have several pieces, and they are very tasty.

@ In 1953 - the process of creating the popular crystals Northern Lights was perfected. They are often abbreviated and referred to simply rocks AB. This name is credited to the Stones shows similarities with spectacular Northern Lights. I can not disagree with the analogy - it's incredible! This stone is applied very thin metal layer on the surface, and is a great effect. Fast holographic occurs stone changes color, the light changes or motion. credit history of that evolution to guess which company? Swarovski certainly a good note, with the support of Christian Dior. These stones are often used to great results.

was admitted to the copyrights to / use of fashion design jewelry - in 1954. This was an important event not only gave certain rights to the company, but also jewelry borrowed test their products and efforts. This is not the fashion jewelry is also ran, but a thriving industry with all the rights and recognition of each industry. Jewelry officially arrived!

The birth of your old jewelry - What was that beautiful work of art that will take you to get at your disposal? Here's an example - of course it can vary depending on the item, style and time. Several years ago a designer came up with the idea. He pulled out of the difficulties, and then decide what color of stones and better ideas. After many hours of testing and comparison - he finished his last picture. Then, the drawings and specifications were artisans who try it will happen. They spend hours on the original form of craft or design. Then, after she was satisfied and the designer - The die is cast with a metal base. Then the form is removed and trimmed of excess metal and polished by hand and polished to a brilliant creation.
After this phase was completed successfully - the room was ready to throw him or jewelry. As a rule, good copper plating for sealant and adhesive was applied. Then, nickel surface is smooth and shiny, and it was done. Finally, after all - we need to start plating process in which the last layer of gold, silver or rhodium was done.

Electroplating is a process, a metallic coating of metal or other conducting surface by means of electricity. It is designed to improve the appearance of materials and corrosion protection. Element, brass plated cleaned by immersion in acid and alkaline detergents. Then the solution of the metal, you want to cover the plate or get a point. Metal in solution as positive ions, atoms that have lost one or more electrons. The article then connected to the cathode or negative end of the electrical energy source. Anode, or positive electrical terminal or at the end when another driver, which is linked also placed into the solution.

Now acting on the metal ions in solution. Ions are attracted to the cathode side, and the coating is applied to an element of the metal surface. Of course, after each process will have a lot to be cleaned and polished. Finally, the question of the stone setter, where he laid the stones hand sent. Of course, this may vary depending on the difficulty of the stones were pens, tape recorder, put the dogs teeth, glasses, or even imprisonment. Often, part of several types of parameters. Although the trip to what is often referred to as fake jewelry!
