If gold and silver jewelry is too expensive, then organic
jewelry can provide the same decoration for a much cheaper price. Organic jewelry started from the Native Americans by using connecting simple seashells
together. Today, organic jewelry has evolved into a major role in the fashion
industry. The most popular type of organic jewelry today would be in the form
of pearls.
Where do pearls come from? Pearls come from an irritation in an oyster's shell.
The irritation is then covered with calcium carbonate which after many years
turns into a pearl. Pearls were first used for jewelry by the Native Americans
that first settled the land. Thousands of years later, they are now considered
a must-have fashion accessory.
Pearls are used in many forms of jewelry including Necklaces, bracelets, and
rings.
Pearl necklaces are very popular, and they come in a variety of forms such as
Bib, Choker, Matinee, Opera, Princess, and Rope.
Pearl bracelets also work very well as fabulous fashion accessories. The
classic single strand of different pearls can be used to match any outfit.
You can never go wrong with a pearl ring. A gorgeous pearl ring set with gold
or sterling silver will made any woman happy.
If pearls are not your thing, there are many other forms of
organic jewelry such as bamboo and hardwood. Bamboo is not considered a type of
wood, but is instead a type of grass. There are many types of bamboo that are
yellow, tan, green, brown, and even purple providing a great fashion accessory.
The most common use of bamboo for organic jewelry is earrings. Although they
are relatively easy to take care for, the wearer has to re oil the earring
periodically for easy insertion. If you like designs, bamboos can have great
designs burnt in them. The best part is that bamboo earrings only cost around
fifteen dollars.
A more expensive alternative to bamboo is actual hardwood. Wood plugs are
usually hand crafted and each piece is unique. Plugs work best on dry areas of
the body like ears and might cause an allergic reaction. Like bamboo, hardwood
jewelry has to be re oiled from time to time. Common oils used are olive oil,
peanut oil, and jojoba oil. There are six major types of wood used for jewelry:
Chakte Kok, Chechon, Ebony, Granadillo, Katalox and Maple each of these a different
color.
ChakteKok is a glowing reddish yellow and is lightweight. Chechen is brown and
gives a natural look. Ebony is black and is the heaviest. Grandillo is dark
brown. Katalox is very dark brown and is almost black. Katalox is the rarest
type and is hard to obtain. Maple is light brown and is almost yellow.
If you're interested in wood plugs, they come in many different shapes: Saddle
shaped, cylinder shaped, flared, nail shaped, taper shaped, and spike shaped.
When ordering wood plugs, you must specify in diameter and length. These are
just a few examples of modern organic jewelry. There are many other types of
organic jewelry including bones, horns, stone, and amber. While each type of
organic jewelry is different, they all serve as a great alternative to
expensive silver and gold jewelry.
