Mughal Empires And The Apparels Of The Mughal Empire
The apparels of the Mughal emperor were imported from various countries, which denotes noble trade relations with other countries and their political
power. Their clothing was made of the finest cotton, silk, decorated with gold; they carried beautiful scimitars. Their clothing was slightly different
from their European counterparts. With the long gowns, the emperors wore pearl necklaces and jewelled turban ornaments (V&A Archives [a]).
Furthermore, they lived in very picturesque and outlandish places.
Domestic items such as bottles, spoons, wine cups and mirrors were all produced in luxurious materials like jade, silver or delicately painted glasses
(V&A Archives [a]). Materials such as Jade, silver and glass were rare and expensive during that time. Particularly nephrite jade, a valuable hardstone
became popular during the reign of Jahangir, it was imported from Khotan and was used to make small wine glasses and thumb rings for the emperor
(V&A museum wall). This connotes, the rich taste of Mughal and enough money to acquire the same and the control they had over trade relations with
different countries and empires. Several artisans were employed in the court to make luxurious and exceptional items for the court and the emperors.
During their reign, the Mughals had shifted and moved capitals several times to gain control over other respective kingdoms and places by declaring a
war or battles. The capital moved from Agra to Fatehpur Sikri to Lahore to Agra and finally

Jewelry Today and in Ancient Egypt
I would like to think that I know a little bit about jewelry, seeing as I just got engaged a few weeks ago. I know that it runs the gamut from small
subdued pieces to garish pieces. When shopping for a ring I was able to see many different types of jewelry the modern world has to offer, although I
concentrated on diamond jewelry and more specifically rings. I will talk first about different ways that ancient Egyptians adorned themselves and then I
will move on to the modern era and finally sum it up with the differences and similarities that I see.
Even though I started off talking about jewelry there were many ways that Egyptians adorned themselves. Egyptians used jewelry, makeup, and tattoos.

We can see many similarities between Egyptian society and current society. The materials used for jewelry have not changed much in three thousand
years. Other materials have been discovered and used, diamonds and platinum are two examples, but the use of gold is still very popular as is the use
of semiprecious stones. Designs have also survived until now. Some scholars argue that the use of the cross does not date back to Christ, but rather all
the way back to ancient Egypt and their use of the ankh. Finally we can use the idea of the cross also to illustrate that one of the purposes for jewelry
has not changed; religious significance. People still have good luck charms and will continue to wear them on their body for another three thousand
years.
The main difference between adornments today and in ancient Egypt is that they are losing religious significance. Although I feel that people will
always place significance on jewelry the purpose for most jewelry is for aesthetics. Wealth and power is in there as well, but people buy it to look
good not to ward off evil spirits. Makeup has also shifted squarely in the secular column instead of medical and religious reasons. Tattoos today are for
"expressing one's self" and not to protect an expectant mother in pregnancy.
In summation we see that in today's society we have dropped a lot of the religious significance to jewelry and now use for decorating and making one

2. Changing fashion trends and increased consciousness of the consumers has resulted in competition among the major manufacturing nations, and also
shifting of the industry to low labor cost countries. 3. Retailing sector has also been affected due to competition from other luxury goods, declining
investment in the sector (largely in the developed economies) and increasing consumer sophistication. Future Prospects The future scenarios for the
global fashion jewelry industry, based on the recent trends, are that the mining countries will capture a huge share of the polishing sector as well.
Substitutes of precious stones such as synthetic diamonds and non–precious metals will replace the precious stones. The plain gold jewelry sales will
keep on declining and China and India will emerge as large retail markets. Based on the above trends the projections for growth of jewelry industry are
as follows: The growth in sales of the industry as a whole will slow down and the world will notice the emergence of new markets. The global fashion
jewelry sales will grow at the rate of 4.6% annually and is estimated to reach US $ 185 billion by 2010 and US $ 230 billion in 2015. China and India

Angels And Mourning Figures: Artwork Analysis
Artwork can be produced with the intention of telling a narrative, impressing an audience, or demonstrating wealth. Sometimes, a piece can do all
three. A prime example of this, a member of the collection of the Lindau Gospels, is the "Crucifixion with Angels and Mourning Figures" binding
(Stokstad and Cothren 451). This gospel cover was crafted around the late ninth century, 870–880, under the Carolingian Dynasty. Specifically, the
binding was likely produced at "one of the monastic workshops of Charlemagne's grandson, Charles the Bald" (Stokstad and Cothren 450). Today, the
piece resides at the Morgan Library and Museum in New York City, New York (Stokstad and Cothren 451). Aside from possessing an unparalleled

For starters, since the piece was created in the ninth century, it is understood that all of the religious texts produced at the time were handwritten in
monasteries. No printing technology existed, meaning that an exorbitant amount of effort went into producing just one gospel. The texts "represented
an enormous investment of the time, talent, and materials" that went into the project. As a result, the covers designed to protect the texts had to be
equally as elaborate and impressive. Consequently, gospel covers were fashioned out of sumptuous material, such as precious metals and gems, and
artists employed elaborate techniques to make the covers as ornate as possible. In the case of the "Crucifixion with Angels and Mourning Figures",
some techniques used include repoussГ© and illumination focused craftsmanship. In regards to repoussГ©, it is defined as being a "low relief

I found that there is a myth that was in a novel written by Sir Walter Scott, that claimed Opals were a stone of bad luck, which is completely false.
Quite the opposite in fact, Opals are a luck bringing stone. They are not just the birthstone of October, Opal is also the traditional 14th wedding

Morganite Ring Research Paper
If you're on the fence about a Morganite ring, you're not alone. While many women love the color and the unusual settings that feature Morganite
stones, it can be a tough decision without a real list of the pros and cons of the stone, which we are providing for you here.

to clean the stone when they make sure to remove it when applying hand lotion. Luckily, the jewelry is easy to clean. A soft toothbrush and soapy
water will do the trick.
Needs a Sturdy Setting
While the stone is a 7.5 on the Mohs Scale, that's more than a few points below the strength of a diamond. The edges of the Morganite stone could
easily chip if it's banged around on a daily basis. This requires a protective setting around the Morganite. A stunning alternative to a prong setting is to
use a halo of diamonds to protect the pink stone.
Varying Quality
The quality of the stone can dictate the price. There is no certification from GIA to protect the customer, but some have other ratings to help the
customer make a decision based on the quality. You want one that doesn't have visible inclusions. Be wary of a stone that is incredibly cheap since it's

What Is The Irony Of The False Gems By Guy De Maupassant
Final Project Topic 3
Guy de Maupassant's story "The False Gems" is often referred to casually as "The Jewelry." The story is about a man of modest means who is madly
in love with his beautiful wife, who has a predilection for two things, the theater and false jewelry, both of which the narrator loathes. Irony is woven
throughout the story, such as when the narrator discovers that the jewels are not really false at all but that his wife is,and son on.
The story that you refer to is "The False Gems," in which the main character M. Lantin is married to a woman that he truly loves, he adores her, as

Lantin was struggling financially, he felt that the rich could have no problems because their money could make them happy. He believed that
money would equal happiness. However, once he got rich off his wife's jewelry, the happiness that he hoped for didn't come with it. He kept lying
about how much money that he really had and his second wife didn't bring him much happiness either, in fact she caused him much sorrow.So the
main irony of "The False Gems" by Guy de Maupassant is clearly that the gems ended up being real. Throughout the story, Mr. Lantin was
convinced that his wife's jewelry was false, as she so assured him. After his wife's death he was in desperate need of money and decided to pawn her
jewels for what little they were worth. Ironically, and little did he know, the jewelry was real and worth a lot of money.
His wife must have had an admirer, a rich one, who gave her the gems as gifts. So in fact, his loving, attentive wife, was probably having an affair.
Yet he never knew it, he was shocked.M. Lantin decides to remarry, his second wife is very virtuous, she will be a faithful wife. The irony is twofold,

form within the Earth's crust, spare peridots and diamonds which form in the mantle (Smigel). The lower surface of the crust is cracked and fractured
in many places which allows fluids like magma, which are rich in nutrients and rare chemical elements, to pass through, making the crust the ideal
place for gemstones to form. Small fragments of gemstones tend to be found scattered fairly sparsely throughout large bodies of rocks, or growing in
small cavities in the Earth's crust ("Natural Gemstones– Geologic Environment"). In order for gemstones to form, the perfect combination of
temperature, pressure, space, chemical elements, and time must occur. Gemstones typically form in igneous rocks, but sedimentary and metamorphic
can also contain gem minerals ("Natural Gemstones– Geologic Environment"). In nature, gemstones form in one of four ways: from solutions via
precipitation or dissolution, melting/crystallization, vapor condensation, and extreme environmental changes

another. When selecting a mineral to conduct a research report on, one could be drawn to Lazurite for a multitude of factors whether it be the

halfway point between the weakest minerals and the strongest. As for another feature of Lazurite, the color usually falls in an array of blues from
light to dark and sometimes green or even violet. When Lazurite is ground into a powder formally known as a streak, it brings forth the true color of

Like butterflies and hummingbirds that acquire their colour when light hits their bodies, opals gain their 'play of colour' when a light ray encounters
small obstacles or slits. When the light wave bends as it passes around the edge or through the small openings, the ray breaks apart and scatters the
wave into visible rainbow hues. This phenomenon is known as diffraction. To understand how this happens, you need to learn the structure of opals.
The Structure of Opals Opals consist of silica and water. When silica from the soil mixes with water, a silicate–rich solution is formed. This solution
enters a cavity or is trapped in layers under the earth, forming different types of opals. Over time, the silicate–rich solution settles and the water
evaporates, forming layer upon layer of silica spheres. The layers of precipitated silica spheres turn into a jelly–like water mass, producing a diffraction
grating when the spheres are even in sizes and well–ordered. This creates a 'play of colour' from within the stone when it is moved and the light hits
the spheres in different angles. The Size of the

Mughal Empires And The Apparels Of The Mughal Empire

  • 1. Mughal Empires And The Apparels Of The Mughal Empire The apparels of the Mughal emperor were imported from various countries, which denotes noble trade relations with other countries and their political power. Their clothing was made of the finest cotton, silk, decorated with gold; they carried beautiful scimitars. Their clothing was slightly different from their European counterparts. With the long gowns, the emperors wore pearl necklaces and jewelled turban ornaments (V&A Archives [a]). Furthermore, they lived in very picturesque and outlandish places. Domestic items such as bottles, spoons, wine cups and mirrors were all produced in luxurious materials like jade, silver or delicately painted glasses (V&A Archives [a]). Materials such as Jade, silver and glass were rare and expensive during that time. Particularly nephrite jade, a valuable hardstone became popular during the reign of Jahangir, it was imported from Khotan and was used to make small wine glasses and thumb rings for the emperor (V&A museum wall). This connotes, the rich taste of Mughal and enough money to acquire the same and the control they had over trade relations with different countries and empires. Several artisans were employed in the court to make luxurious and exceptional items for the court and the emperors. During their reign, the Mughals had shifted and moved capitals several times to gain control over other respective kingdoms and places by declaring a war or battles.

  • 3. Jewelry Today and in Ancient Egypt I would like to think that I know a little bit about jewelry, seeing as I just got engaged a few weeks ago. I know that it runs the gamut from small subdued pieces to garish pieces. When shopping for a ring I was able to see many different types of jewelry the modern world has to offer, although I concentrated on diamond jewelry and more specifically rings. I will talk first about different ways that ancient Egyptians adorned themselves and then I will move on to the modern era and finally sum it up with the differences and similarities that I see. Even though I started off talking about jewelry there were many ways that Egyptians adorned themselves. Egyptians used jewelry, makeup, and tattoos. We know this because the Egyptians ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... We can see many similarities between Egyptian society and current society. The materials used for jewelry have not changed much in three thousand years. Other materials have been discovered and used, diamonds and platinum are two examples, but the use of gold is still very popular as is the use of semiprecious stones. Designs have also survived until now. Some scholars argue that the use of the cross does not date back to Christ, but rather all the way back to ancient Egypt and their use of the ankh. Finally we can use the idea of the cross also to illustrate that one of the purposes for jewelry has not changed; religious significance. People still have good luck charms and will continue to wear them on their body for another three thousand years. The main difference between adornments today and in ancient Egypt is that they are losing religious significance. Although I feel that people will always place significance on jewelry the purpose for most jewelry is for aesthetics. Wealth and power is in there as well, but people buy it to look good not to ward off evil spirits. Makeup has also shifted squarely in the secular column instead of medical and religious reasons. Tattoos today are for "expressing one's self" and not to protect an expectant mother in pregnancy. In summation we see that in today's society we have dropped a lot of the religious significance to jewelry and now use for decorating and making one ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Changing fashion trends and increased consciousness of the consumers has resulted in competition among the major manufacturing nations, and also shifting of the industry to low labor cost countries. 3. Retailing sector has also been affected due to competition from other luxury goods, declining investment in the sector (largely in the developed economies) and increasing consumer sophistication. Future Prospects The future scenarios for the global fashion jewelry industry, based on the recent trends, are that the mining countries will capture a huge share of the polishing sector as well. Substitutes of precious stones such as synthetic diamonds and non–precious metals will replace the precious stones. The plain gold jewelry sales will keep on declining and China and India will emerge as large retail markets. Based on the above trends the projections for growth of jewelry industry are as follows: The growth in sales of the industry as a whole will slow down and the world will notice the emergence of new markets.

Sometimes, a piece can do all three. A prime example of this, a member of the collection of the Lindau Gospels, is the "Crucifixion with Angels and Mourning Figures" binding (Stokstad and Cothren 451).

Specifically, the binding was likely produced at "one of the monastic workshops of Charlemagne's grandson, Charles the Bald" (Stokstad and Cothren 450).

For starters, since the piece was created in the ninth century, it is understood that all of the religious texts produced at the time were handwritten in monasteries. No printing technology existed, meaning that an exorbitant amount of effort went into producing just one gospel. The texts "represented an enormous investment of the time, talent, and materials" that went into the project. As a result, the covers designed to protect the texts had to be equally as elaborate and impressive. Consequently, gospel covers were fashioned out of sumptuous material, such as precious metals and gems, and artists employed elaborate techniques to make the covers as ornate as possible. In the case of the "Crucifixion with Angels and Mourning Figures", some techniques used include repoussГ© and illumination focused craftsmanship.

There is little to no appreciation for how its made or how valuable it is, just as long as it glistens and glows.

Gemstones form with concrete mineral systems which affect the way they grow and the way gem cutters can cut them. All gemstones have a set crystalline structure, chemical formula, and a regular three dimensional arrangement of atoms (Smigel). Nearly all gemstones form within the Earth's crust, spare peridots and diamonds which form in the mantle (Smigel). The lower surface of the crust is cracked and fractured in many places which allows fluids like magma, which are rich in nutrients and rare chemical elements, to pass through, making the crust the ideal place for gemstones to form. Small fragments of gemstones tend to be found scattered fairly sparsely throughout large bodies of rocks, or growing in small cavities in the Earth's crust ("Natural Gemstones– Geologic Environment"). In order for gemstones to form, the perfect combination of temperature, pressure, space, chemical elements, and time must occur.

Like butterflies and hummingbirds that acquire their colour when light hits their bodies, opals gain their 'play of colour' when a light ray encounters small obstacles or slits. When the light wave bends as it passes around the edge or through the small openings, the ray breaks apart and scatters the wave into visible rainbow hues. This phenomenon is known as diffraction. To understand how this happens, you need to learn the structure of opals. The Structure of Opals Opals consist of silica and water. When silica from the soil mixes with water, a silicate–rich solution is formed. This solution enters a cavity or is trapped in layers under the earth, forming different types of opals.
