It is interesting to watch the innovations in the world of fashion jewlery. As we know, the objective of creating fashion jewlery is to develop designs, colors, and patterns that are appealing to the customer – primarily the teenage customer – while at the same time, maintaining the affordability of the jewlery. This is particularly interesting in today’s market, where gold sells for about $800 an ounce! So designers and sellers almost have to stay away from precious metals and precious gemstones when designing their creations. The use of base metals like copper for fashion jewlery appears to be been spurred by the current economic crisis. Copper has been used in jewlery designs for a long time. Early designs were quite crude, by today’s st
andards. However, as craftsmanship and techniques improved, so has the quality of copper jewlery. Take for example, the beautifully crafted copper pendant shown in this picture. The focal bead is natural, jet-black onyx. It is no doubt, a pretty stone. But by itself, the stone is not particularly outstanding. But put in into a pretty rustic rose copper setting, and suddenly you’ve got yourself a stunning piece of fashion jewlery! At $20, this copper pendant satisfies both key requirements for fashion jewlery – a beautiful piece of jewelry at a very reasonable price!
