Generally, costume jewellery refers to ornaments designed sans precious or semi-precious metals though an uncommon trend of using a combination of junk metals with semi –precious stones and metals is also in existence. Such jewellery does turn out much more expensive than the usual costume jewellery but the price is justified by their exquisite quality and beauty. The mass market, however, still caters to costume jewellery in the range of Rs 500 to Rs 5000. Typical costume ornaments include earrings
Precious metals do not have their own group on the periodic table. They are arranged together on the table. These elements do have the same chemical properties, however they do not have their own classification. All of these metals do not rust, they are resistant to oxidation and corrosion and they only break down when they are in high temperatures. Gold (Au), silver (Ag), platinum (Pt), ruthenium (Ru), rhodium (Rh), palladium (Pd), iridium (Ir), and osmium (Os) all have similar properties and are
There are few certainties in life, but two of them are that they aren’t making any more land and people will always need a place to live.

Gold can also symbolize a King’s royalty, relationships and fame. Modern-day archeological evidence proves this importance of metal and treasure through the uncovered Sutton Hoo Anglo-Saxon burial treasure-hoard. The significance to Sutton Hoo shows clear evidence that at this time, society thought of gold as a symbol for Pagan beliefs into the afterlife and as precious and delicate. In Beowulf, the reader can clearly identify this value of wealth. The reader understands that the power of wealth

Every day as the sun rose and set, and every night as the moon did the same, gold-loving Felix snatched up all he could find, and when the precious metal was scarce, dreamed of possessing golden utensils, of sitting and sleeping upon golden furniture, and even bathing in pure liquid gold.

discovery, thousands of prospective gold miners traveled by sea or over land to San Francisco and the surrounding area; by the end of 1849, the non-native population of the California territory was some 100,000. A total of $2 billion worth of precious metal was extracted from the area during the Gold Rush, which peaked in 1852.

Introduction “I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.” (Bill Cosby) The reason is because there are no two people that have exactly same likes and dislikes. Everybody in this world is different. Hence trying to make everyone happy at the same time merely blow the pleaser’s mind off.
