Bangles had their own charm and their own importance for being worn in the hand.

Bangles and Necklaces have been an epic chapter in the history of Indian Jewellery. All the other forms of decoration are supposedly considered incomplete if the necklaces and the pendants are not a part of an individuals` jewellery. The Romans had considerable resources available to them, and used a diverse range of materials for their jewellery, including gold, bronze or bone and in earlier times, glass beads & pearl. Tibetan prayer beads may contain beads of coral, shell, ivory, amber, turquoise and other semi-precious and precious stones.

When England was under Roman rule, fossilized wood called jet from the North of England was carved into interesting pieces. Bangles had their own charm and their own importance for being worn in the hand. However, when it came to the necklaces, they were mostly made in gold added along with the gemstones to add more fascination for the onlookers. However, apart from having their own share of fame during the earlier times, one cannot help but notice, the recent generation too getting captivated in those designs and it resulting in the same designs and patterns coming back to life, since these Moghul designs are the very base of every delicate handiwork by the modern jewellery makers.

The most common artefact of early Rome was the brooch, which was very practical with togas. 2000 years ago the Romans were using sapphires from Sri Lanka, cloudy emeralds, garnets, amber and Indian diamond crystals. Tibetan rosary contains 108 beads divided by three large beads. Has been the from of stretch, but as the holder of magical powers and fictitious magnificence. Let us categorize the same ancient jewellery in different forms and see the delicate designs, which have been the basis of our modern jewellery since the recent jewellery makers have inherited this fashion statement as well.

Being fairly easily available the coinage was the craftsman's raw material for decorative jewel work. In coinage the Romans used 18 and 24 carat gold. Although there was considerable variety in jewellery designs among early barbarian tribes such as the Celts, when the Romans conquered the majority of Europe, designs begun to gain uniformity and become fashionable. The qualities are brisk restored and frequent today as when they formed billions of years ago. Hallmarked sterling silver bangle.
