    Jewelry can do many things. Jewelry has long been a symbol of spiritual strength, wealth or power and, of course, a means of personal expression. Specific pieces of jewelry can enhance a person's appearance. For example, dangling earrings can help lengthen the look of the face, while choker necklaces can shorten the appearance of a long neck. The right jewelry can add texture and pops of color to outfits and draw attention to the wearer. In some cases, jewelry can have a symbolic meaning, the way an engagement ring is a reminder of a promise to marry, and a cross necklace is often a sign of religious faith. Shop a large collection of jewelry on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
