Costume jewelry was at its height during the 1930s. Women wanted a bit more glamour but real gems cost a fortune so it made good sense to turn to mass-produced brass and glass, because that's all it really is. It's called "costume" jewelry because it's made out of non-precious metals and glass stones. Costume jewelry has in the past, as well as now, often been looked down upon across the world. Let us examine why. One of the perceptions was/is that if one could not afford genuine jewelry, made with precious metal and stones, to pretend was somehow dishonest. And, it followed those persons displaying costume jewelry would thus be people who could not afford the real thing but were trying to appear wealthier than they were. Costume jewelry is much like fashion jewelry, the difference is only that costume jewelry is not trying to imitate a certain person's wedding ring, and they provide costume jewelry for every person and every dress-up occasion. Some items that are part of the wholesale costume jewelry area of wholesale jewelry, include anklets, rings, healing stones, toe rings, hemp jewelry, trendy earrings and thumb rings. In costume jewelry mostly stones used are either crystal or cubic zirconia. Most of the crystal is originally manufactured by Swarovski. Cubic zirconia (CZ) is a rare, naturally occurring mineral, but is synthetically manufactured as a low cost alternative to diamonds. There are a number of differences between cubic zirconia and diamonds, but most are not easily discernible to the untrained eye. The most obvious difference between crystal or cubic zirconia and genuine diamonds or gemstones is that in costume jewelry the stones are more brilliant, the colors purer, and the flaws fewer -- more beautiful. Costume Jewelry is a perfect source for special occasions, brides for their wedding day, bridesmaids for a coordinated look, teens for proms or special dances, competitors for pageants, dance groups for costumes, travelers for inexpensive vacation wear, friends and family as gifts Sometimes in the costume jewelry stores and suppliers, there are "sample packages" with a variety of wholesale jewelry, and other items many find pleasing. If you are purchasing costume jewelry, always remember to buy "what hot". What's hot now may be a silver ring with a huge, false gem on the top. Wholesale costume jewelry is very reasonably price because you are buying in bulk, however because you are buying in bulk it is important that you get every item that you paid for, and in the correct condition. If there is something missing from an order, or there are damaged items, there should always be a number to call and talk to a representative that will be able to help you, and straighten out the order.
