Humans of all times, races and regions have worked out ways to look presentable. From ancient times, this effort has involved cosmetics and ornaments made with precious stones and materials. However, this was not only considered as decorative but at the same time, the jewels and the colours represented deep meanings. Jewellery was worn by both the genders, it symbolized their culture, status, and emotions.

Today as we look around us, Jewellery has lost its meaning. Such ornaments are made by machines with cheap materials at low cost and are considered as disposable items. They often don’t last long and the owner does not feel any emotional connection with them. The low-cost jewellery items are found in fast fashion stores and are usually bought impulsively which reduces the chances of them being an item to be cherished to or kept as a fine memory. Such ornaments are usually substandard and are tossed or forgotten due to lack of emotional connection and no historical event to associate them with.
