Why did ancient people bury jewelry with dead people inside a coffin? In ancient Egypt, they believed that buried objects could be used and enjoyed in their next life. At the same time, it is a tradition of burying jewellery, fine clothes and objects with the dead emperors in the ancient China dynasty. They were a symbol of status and wealth back then, and they still are to this day. It is not only until recently jewellery is commonly bought and kept as an investment. This trend is on the rise thanks to their affordability; any regular person can own simple jewellery these days.

Pink Fantasy Jewelry Collection By Ivy T

Do you think pink is a lovely colour? In this set of jewelry, the pendant and earrings main stone consists of Pink Opal and Pink Rhodonite with pink gold (rose gold). Supplement stones will be Tourmaline, Garnet and Spinel. The color of pink was chosen because of the admiration of pink flower such as cherry blossom and peach blossom. The inspiration also drawn from not only the flower, but the details such as the petal, bud and blooming flowers that made up the color and shape combinations.
​
Another combination is the choice of cabochon and facet cut stones which made up a balance reflection or you may call understatement because opaque stone create unique luster and facet stone create light reflection. Each type of cut has its beauty and in this design when put up together, it creates a different outcome. In this jewelry design variation it is definitely a perfect choice to use pink (rose) gold base for the great matching finished.
