Love of Jewelry: If the Price is Right
Jewelry
It is sad to note that jewelry as a form of art is no ifs ands or buts taken for granted. The art in a jewelry piece is less noticed and less praised compared to the art in paintings and sculpture.
Sure, citizen will gaze in wonder at a four-carat diamond on an engagement ring. Certainly, citizen will observation if you wear a diamond tennis bangle to your prom party. However, the appreciation for jewelry is approximately all the time confined to the cost of the item and the credit that goes with owning such an obviously high-priced piece. The appreciation lies, therefore, not on the work and the artistry that goes into the yield of the jewelry piece. It lies more on its weight, its size, and its prize tag.
This single-minded focus on the cost of jewelry as well as the neglect of the jewelry’s form, create and details has taken away the appreciation for jewelry as a true form of art. Jewelry has regressed to nothing but an high-priced and brazen wealth exhibit.
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 fastener or an investment, thus the price of the jewelry is given more weight. Unless citizen learn to appreciate and give value to the artistry behind the create of the jewelry, true appreciation of the art of jewelry production may be slow to come by.
