FEELINGS OF A JEWEL

Jewelry can reflect times, types of celebrations and even moods. We know that in social groups, clothing and ornaments are what differentiate us from others, what marks social class, rank and power over others, so each piece of jewelry, one by one, will take its rightful place in our lives.

And it may be that the piece is made of the finest gold or, on the contrary, of the most humble material, but rest assured that both will carry with them that great symbolism, that message, which is the reason why we treasure and value them and which not only involves money but feelings.

Feeling makes us human. Jewels make us feel, remember and relive a moment in time with them. They are beautiful but their beauty is not only aesthetic, the most beautiful thing about jewels is that they belong to us, that they express our deepest emotions without words.

Jewelry also reminds us of someone or marks an event in our lives, whether it be happy times like weddings and births…or sad moments.

We remember someone who is no longer with us simply by finding their favorite piece of jewelry in a drawer: a necklace, a brooch, maybe a pair of cufflinks. At that moment, our mind makes us evoke the person who was so special to us and we treasure that piece as if their very essence were kept there, as if we could imprison all our love in it to give it and inherit it to the generation that will take the next place, leaving only a small jewel as a tangible memory of having passed through this world. Has this happened to you too?

The meaning behind a piece of jewelry is very powerful. Just ask yourself: what would happen if you lost that chain that belonged to your mother? Or your wedding ring or engagement ring? How about the necklace that marked the birth of your first child? I can assure you that you wouldn't like it at all and that it would leave a void in your heart, and I can tell you why: jewelry is a treasure of our souls, powerful symbols that hold great meaning and that have accompanied us throughout human existence.

Time past or future, relationships lived, personal experiences, key moments in our lives, the sense of power, of beauty are elements that jewelry contains. That is why adorning ourselves with jewelry humanizes us.
