Gold Jewelry from Tibet and Nepal by Jane Casey Singer, X

Gold Jewelry from Tibet and Nepal by Jane Casey Singer, X
In Tibet and Nepal gold jewelry has always been rare, a luxury reserved for the wealthy and powerful. Jewelry reflected not only the owner's personal wealth, but also social and political status - frequently, promotion in rank entailed promotion in jewelry, both for male government officials and their wives. Himalayan jewelry also conveys ancient cultural values and, particularly in its form as an amulet box, it serves a powerful talismanic function. In the great religious traditions of Buddhism and Hinduism, gems and jewels - connoting preciousness, rarity and supreme refinement - often served as metaphors for ideals of the faith, and Himalayan deities were magnificently adorned with crowns and earrings, armlets and anklets, and lavish necklaces. Through a lack of archaeological and literary evidence, as well as recent political upheaval, Himalayan jewelry has never been systematically studied, much of the information on the subject being derived from accounts of Western travellers or Tibetans in exile. Now, Gold Jewelry from Tibet and Nepal offers an overview of the subject, exploring how jewelry was defined and appreciated in the Himalayan region, its materials and manufacture and its social and symbolic functions. Illustrated with some of the finest examples of gold jewelry produced in the region in recent centuries - from elaborately designed turquoise earrings to gem-encrusted amulet boxes - this fascinating book offers a rare insight into ancient traditions. With 110 illustrations, 100 in colour.

White gold - White gold refers to an alloy of gold and other white metals such as silver, palladium, or nickel. The natural color of white gold is light gray, so jewelry made of white gold is typically coated in highly reflective rhodium (sometimes coated in platinum and palladium), adding a more brilliant shine.

Rose gold - Rose gold is gold alloyed with copper widely used for specialized jewelry (reddish color). This is sometimes called Pink gold.

Fashion jewelry - Fashion Jewelry (British: Fashion Jewellery), once known as "paste" - named after the theatrical jewels that were "pasted" onto costumes - and later as "Costume jewelry" because of it's theatrical roots - by the 1960s the term was coined to represent a wide category of earrings, bracelets, pendants, ring}rings and other similar accessories that were made of lesser value materials than traditional or "real" jewelry like gold, silver or diamonds.
