The necklace or chain, from exchange coin to fashion accessory



People always felt the need to accessorize. Whether it was for a practical purpose, physical protection or just symbolic,whether it had only a decorative role,jewels have never missed the list of favorite objects created by man with his own hands,with discoveries processing precious metals, chains and necklaces have always been a piece of collection for humans.
 Besides the fact that they were decorative and with aesthetic attributes to express the outfits, they also represented a currency,especially if they were made of gold or silver. Once a commercial exchange protagonist decides on the price of a product or service, payment is made in chains or necklaces worn by the buyer.
 In addition, did you know representatives of tribes made necklaces from different parts of hunted animals?Certainly not the leading role in decorative effect or fashion. For those people, having chains or necklaces was an existential important role. According to tribal beliefs, necklaces created from parts of animals hunted prey attracted and ensures community. Times have changed and we don't use necklaces and chains as an exchange currency, but as an accessory that will complement any outfit.
