The Truths About Beaded, Costume, and Cubic Zirconia Jewelry!

History of Beaded Jewelry

Beads have been used to create jewelry and adorn costumes since the dawn of time. If you were to look back on the Ice Age you would discover small objects crafted of natural "beads" including animal bones and teeth, seashells and colorful stones. These items were usually attached to clothing or plant fibers to form the most primitive forms of beaded jewelry.

Beaded jewelry symbolizes many different things for different people; different cultures have associated beads with varying spiritual beliefs, cultural customs and social traditions. Beads, like many other jewelry items, have been used throughout time to adorn the bodies of men and women alike, signifying power, beauty and the human spirit.

The very first actual "beads" that have been discovered date back to approximately 38,000 BC. Made by cavemen, these beads were crafted from animal parts. In later times, beads were crafted as symbols of fertility and animal spirits.

During the stone age, beads were crafted primarily as a means of adorning the body; they were also used for trading on occasion however. A couple thousand years later, beads were crafted out of coral and other "precious" substances. In ancient Greece there is evidence that carnelian beads and beads made of lapis lazuli were worn by wealthy members of society. The use of semi-precious stone beads began to become more popular about 2800 BC among the Syrians, who fashioned beads of materials like agate and serpentine.

Since that time beaded jewelry has become more and more valuable and popular. Gold and other semi-precious stones are often used to craft beaded jewelry.

Perhaps the most popular form of beaded jewelry is glass jewelry. Evidence of the first glass beads suggests that glassmaking was common in Mesopotamia around 2180 BC. Glass beads were popular then and are popular now in part because of their durability and inexpensive pricing. The Egyptian and Phoenician cultures are well known for their use of glass to make beaded jewelry. Beaded jewelry was commonly found buried with wealthy pharaohs in the ancient tombs of Egypt, though it was not uncommon for glass beads to be buried with poor families as well.

In modern times beaded jewelry is popular because of its versatility and diversity. Beads can be crafted from almost any material including the following:


Coral/seashells
Gemstones
Glass
Rock Crystal
Gold
Silver
Stone
Pearls

Beads can even be crafted out of plastic (though this is of course less lovely than some other more traditional options). Though in times of old beads served as symbols of status, wealth and heritage, today beaded jewelry is more much representative of a persons unique style preferences and personality. Beaded jewelry can be custom made in almost any style, using any type of chain and any type/combination of beads.

Beaded jewelry is just as popular today, if not more popular than it was in ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian times. Buying online is easy, and perhaps the best option for bead savvy and not so savvy consumers alike. Buying online eliminates the hassle of traveling from store to store, which can take days or more to find the right beads or beaded jewelry. By shopping online, you have literally tens of thousands of unique selections to choose from. Though no longer traded for food, modern jewelry enthusiasts often engage in bead trading for fun and camaraderie.

Costume Jewelry

Costume jewelry is sometimes referred to as "fake jewelry" by some well meaning but unknowing individuals. Costume jewelry is crafted from among other items, rhinestones, glass stones and gold plated metal or sterling silver. Costume jewelry first surfaced in the United States around the early twenties; it was very popular among European immigrants that settled into the states during this time. Movie stars and common folk alike wore costume jewelry that was carefully crafted and ornamentally designed.

Costume jewelry, particularly antique pieces, are well worth their weight in gold. Many hand crafted pieces can fetch thousands of dollars on the open market. There are some designers that are more well known than others in the world of costume jewelry:


Napier
Nettie Rosenstein
Ciner
Hattie Carnegie
Miriam Haskell

Even celebrities currently invest thousands of dollars on costume jewelry every year. Because unique pieces are harder to come buy and rarely mass produced anymore, some pieces created in the early 30s to late 40s can be hard to find. More common are pieces that were created in the 1960s or later. Costume jewelry is fun in part because the wearer is at liberty to make a bold statement. Not modest, most costume jewelry shouts out "here I am, look at me!" An excellent choice for the bold and daring, costume jewelry can be a wonderful accessory to just about any wardrobe.

Costume jewelry collecting has even become a favorite pastime among many jewelry enthusiasts, much like beaded jewelry trading and collecting. The appeal of both of these styles is their uniqueness and diversity. Though in some instances hard to find, costume jewelry can be easily explored via online shopping. When buying online, be sure to have in mind a price range and style before shopping. The selection available online might leave you a bit overwhelmed.

If you collect costume jewelry, you might be wondering just how much it is worth. Just as there are popular designers for look and feel, some designers work is more valuable than others, including:


Ciner
Marel Boucher
Eisenberg
Hobe
Kramer
Vogue
Hollycraft
Monet
Coro
Kenneth J. Lane

These precious gems are often marked when crafted.

Cubic Zirconia Jewelry

Cubic zirconia jewelry has to be among the most popular inexpensive "knock off" jewelry items to buy. Part of the appeal of cubic zirconia jewelry is its remarkable ability to look exactly like real diamond jewelry. Most cubic zirconia is hard to distinguish from its natural cousins.

The widespread use of cubic zirconia became popularized around the 1980s, when it first became mass produced. It is created through a chemical process that combines zirconium oxide and yttrium oxide, which when melted together form a radiant and shiny crystal resembling a natural diamond.

Most cubic zirconia jewelry is very durable, brilliant and long lasting. Some people have to look at a cubic zirconia under a powerful magnifying glass to distinguish it from a real diamond, a testament to its quality and aesthetic appeal. If you are looking for a clear, brilliant and inexpensive option to traditional diamond jewelry, don't hesitate to shop a wide selection of cubic zirconia jewelry. Buying online provides the most advantages, because there is a wider selection and you have the ability to customize your pieces with the click of a button.

How You Can Best Show Off Your Handmade Lampwork Beaded Earrings

How to display jewelry for the greatest effect is a question all jewelry businesses have, especially if you have handmade lamp work beaded jewelry. For the expo trade shows I do I need trade show portable jewelry display kits that show off my designs, look great, attract customers and are easy to setup and pack-up.

After a heap of searching round and testing I found the frame with mesh wire setup too hard to use, fussy for customers and had too much of a background to properly highlight the details of my handmade lamp work beaded earrings. So an earring tree idea was more want I wanted so I could display glass jewelry best. I wanted metal jewelry display sets for their durability and easy to use. I also wanted to theme my display with a range of complementary designs. I thought about having the earring stands all the same but I like a bit of variation. So to keep it in the family I got a collection of earring trees that go together and bring cohesion with their format but are also a little different to each other.

I also have my necklace display stands keeping the same theme as the earring holders to bring unity to the trade show display stand.

Having a creative jewelry display makes a huge difference for presentation and sales. Heaps of competitors us boards and frames so my earring holders with my beaded handmade earrings stand out from the crowd and bring customers directly to me. Having decorative and attractive portable jewelry display stands compliments the necklace and earring jewelry designs so they enhance my designs and that is what I want when I am working really hard to build my jewelry business at wedding expos and craft shows.

I also use my portable jewelry display kit for my jewelry party plan business with home shows so get twice the value out of the initial set up of the kit. For me this is important because every dollar I invest in my business has to work hard to sell my jewelry and create a healthy income for me.

So figuring out what best suits your needs is the easiest way how to display beaded jewelry at a craft fair, bridal expo, trade show booth or party plan home party showing. List what your requirements are and then you can easily see what meets your needs. For me it was the ability of the jewelry display stand to make my jewelry look great, attract customers over to look, easy for me and customers to handle, look really good and a simple setup and pack.

I find it much easier for customers to remember me as the lady with the really good earring holders and necklace jewelry bust display stands as well as for my jewelry in such a busy and competitive market place that is a jewelry trade show. It is a really good way to be remembered, build your brand and continually attract customers with displays that compliment your beautiful handcrafted jewelry.

Trendy Beaded Jewelry - Interesting Fashion Trends

Jewelry is always a hot fashion item and trendy beaded jewelry is no exception. Jewelry made of beads from different materials combined together can make a beautiful and unique fashion statement for the person wearing it. For example, if someone is wearing an obviously handcrafted pair of earrings and those earrings start attracting the attention of others, chances are that one pair of earrings can start a new trend. When that pair of earrings is made of something like Czech glass beads in bright colors, there can definitely be a surge in sales for stores selling similar earrings.

Beads can be made from natural materials to synthetic materials and of course, precious metals. They can be made into singular- or multiple-strand necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Beaded earrings in a drop or chandelier style can be especially fashionable as trendy beaded jewelry. Whether the jewelry is handmade or manufactured, a decent quality piece will always find its way to complementing whatever next season's clothing fashions might be. Below are some examples of how beads can suit upcoming fashions:

1. The basic black dress always looks chic on any lady, but looks even more chic with a strand of real gold or silver beads around her neck, with a matching bracelet and earrings. Beaded parures are no longer a thing of the past, and can always be mixed with other similar pieces to create a new look.

2. Vintage porcelain or glass beads worn at a weekend afternoon tea are bound to attract attention from the other ladies in the group. It is not unusual for jewelry to exist in cycles so far as fashion goes. Just like clothing, what was popular several decades ago can definitely make a comeback in the world of fashion.

3. Beaded jewelry in fun styles, like millefiori and cloisonne, can be perfect for casual wear during the day or night. Even a beaded pendant can become the singular piece of jewelry that every woman will want to add to her armoire.

Trendy beaded jewelry is one thing any woman can wear, even if she owns no other jewelry, or does not favor plain fine metals. Both manufacturers and jewelry artisans pay attention to what women want to wear for jewelry and offer a variety for sale. Clever women may even scour flea markets for vintage beads and combine them with modern beads to create their own jewelry, thus setting off a new fashion trend. A bracelet or necklace of beads from the 1930's with brand new lampwork beads can become a conversation piece that other women will want to imitate in style. Best of all, jewelry like this does not need to be expensive to make. All it requires is a little bit of local searching plus a bit of creativity to make beaded earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.

Trendy beaded jewelry is one thing that can always be in style, no matter what designs or materials are used in the jewelry.

The Art Of The Beaded Jewelry Industry

The art of choosing beaded jewelry or any other kinds of jewelry is to remember that your jewelry arrives visually before you do. When you put something on, check the whole body view, as someone else would see you. It may be a lovely piece, but if it is not right foe you, or if it does not substantially add to the overall effect, leave it at home. Graduated pearls or beaded jewelry are not the best choice for narrow shoulders or a full bust line because they draw the eye to the center. Bigger-scale beads of uniform size are the best choice.

In the 60s Courreges shocked and bemused the fashion world with helmets, plastic disc chain mail, and PVC tunics. This was the avant-garde side of the swinging generation, but their mothers were meanwhile carving out their own fashion agenda. These were ladies decked in colorful Pucci and covered in Ken Lane's latest creations. Much of this type of jewelry had strong influences from ethnic origins, from India, Africa, and South America, and one of the style imports was beaded jewelry - beads, strand upon strand of them. The 1960s was in fact the first time that beads had been used on this scale since Edwardian times.

Almost every major manufacturer produced line after line of beaded jewelry. But where the United States had taken the lead in jewelry design since the 1930s, this was once again the forte of European designers, especially the Italians. In the creative hands if such designers, beaded jewelry flourished: the adorned the front of the neck and also the back, becoming something more than just a neck adornment. Beaded jewelry became far more than just a bauble: it began to have a life of its own, and in the plural they became sculpture.
