Junk Jewellery

Jewellery has become par for the course of modern human beings' dress code, especially ladies, and this happened over time. People wear different types of jewellery pieces as a decoration or as a mark of religious, social, or other beliefs in our time.

One can classify jewellery into two major types; fine jewellery (real) and junk jewellery (fake). Fine jewellery is fabricated using expensive metals like gold, silver, platinum, real gemstones, etc. Most of these items can be repaired and reworked again and again, whenever damages occur. However, the creation of junk jewellery is by using low-cost materials. Junk jewellery items have different names, such as costume jewellery, fashion jewellery, fake jewellery, imitation jewellery, etc. It is also possible to create a junk jewellery piece, which will look precisely like beautiful jewellery.

Junk jewellery ornaments are low-priced, which are generally worn on simple occasions or small parties. Also, people who can’t afford fine jewellery will usually go for junk jewellery. Inexpensive materials and gemstones are used for the creation of these ornaments. They still look elegant as the other expensive ornaments in the market. The major drawback is that it is not easy to repair once they are damaged.

People also use junk jewellery to make an impression of jewellery items. These are pretty cheap and easy to buy and are highly stylized and fashionable. These ornaments are manufactured with metals like copper, bronze, and other raw materials like leather and acrylic. They are often electroplated with gold or other non-precious metals. Other inexpensive metals like glass, plastic, artificial stones, brass, beads, jute, ceramic, stainless steel, etc.are also used for manufacturing them. Most of these raw materials/metals are durable, so they won’t lose their shine, even if used for a long time.

Junk jewellery can be worn with modern as well as traditional costumes. It is available in large medium and smaller sizes, with simple and unique designs. It can be easily worn during any event. Junk jewellery manufacturers are located throughout the world. With the availability of an array of designs, the demand for such fashion jewellery items, having low-cost and light-weight characteristics has increased globally.
