Welcome to the Fantastic World of Heart Jewelry

Christmas is only one week away, and St. Valentine’s Day will soon be here. Have you given any thought to what you will be giving those loved ones on your gift giving list?  Have you considered a beautiful piece of heart jewelry? They make the perfect present for almost any occasion. We will be talking a bit about heart jewelry in this post, and a bit about the history of jewelry in general.  Greetings to one and all…

Since the dawn of man (and women) on the world scene, jewelry has been designed and developed to give to those they love. The first recorded history of jewelry we have is in Africa, where ostrich eggs were often used to make beautiful pieces of art. When jewelry development migrated up to the Mediterranean area, jewelry was often used to cast off the “evil eye”. It was believed that a person could cast a spell on you by giving you the “evil eye”, and jewelry could be used to safeguard you from it.

When the United States emerged from the Second World War jewelry production exploded. Different artisans and artists explored different materials and designs, but the old “stand bys” are often still the favorites.  Forms of heart jewelry that are currently being developed are: crystal, diamond, desert, double-heart, glass, god’s, half-heart, gold, open, pink, silver, ruby, sterling silver and white gold. Quite the variety don’t you think?

We go into more details on this beautiful art form on our web site. We would love to have you join us in exploring this world some more. Welcome one and all…
