Wedding Jewellery: Metals in Demand
Who fought well! The Tacori blue bridal hairpin with five faceted blue jade petals with a topaz in brightest silver or the five carat Tiffany Novo diamond Engagement Ring?
Don’t be surprised. We are not talking about any designer fight. It is about the two best friend brides in the movie ‘Bride Wars’. The movie, starring Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson, featured wedding jewellery by Tiffany & Co. through the characters played by these two charming actresses. They showcased two very elegant types of wedding jewellery. One is the diamond engagement ring and the other is the tacori blue bridal hairpin. Like ‘Bride Wars’, there are tens of thousands of movies across the world cinema where featuring new designs of wedding jewellery is a very common thing. In Hollywood specially, most of the big names in the fashion industry promotes their new ranges/designs through films. Since, film is the most effective way of promotion.
Though these films try to convey only the latest designs and types of wedding jewellery and casual jewelleries, yet they bring only the addition to the older section of types and designs. From necklaces to hair pins they add newer collections. With new collection comes the use of different metals. From a pendant to a necklace, every single jewellery item is now available in all the metals present and used in the industry. These are platinum or white gold, Yellow Gold or gold – Aurum, silver and even the bronze.
But could you imagine upliftment without a base! Certainly you cannot. Similarly, in case of jewelleries also, you cannot ignore the old and traditional styles. For example in UK, the wedding dress and the wedding jewellery are purchased together. And the material in demand in UK for wedding jewellery is platinum. Likewise there are different traditions worldwide when it comes to the material to be used in the jewellery. Worldwide the most famous metal for jewellery is Gold. Almost every second women in the world has one gold ornament with her. Immediately after gold the metal in use wide often is silver. There are other metals also in the scene of jewellery making. White gold is the next most common thing used in the jewelleries across the world.
You can also find some wedding jewelleries using the handmade technique. Handmade jewelleries are not cheaper than those made of either platinum or gold. Though they sound less costly yet the craftsmanship they demand is of higher quality and it requires specialists. And as you know specialists’ inclusion add extra to the cost of that jewellery. So, ultimately it would be you who have to pay an extra for a handmade item. In India, almost 79 percent of people prefer the traditional handmade gold jewelleries for every special occasion like a wedding. In some places of Africa and Andaman Island using bones and claws of animals in jewelleries is a very common thing. Some people even use the shells of pearls as traditional wearing. For example, Riji the pearl shell is traditionally worn by Aboriginal man of Australia. They mainly use these shells for their masculine jewelleries.
So, irrespective of geographical location and caste; use of metals like platinum, gold, silver, bronze and even bones are there in jewellery making whether it is meant for a casual wearing or for a special occasion like a wedding.
