Why women are giving more importants to jewels

Still in marriages we can see lot of women wants to wear jewelry. They are comparing each persons jewels and asking in which jewelry they bought it?. Every year akshaya tritiya day is the women day. Why they are more and more investing in the jewelry and increasing the price on the market?

Buying gold jewellery in akshay tritiya has gained popularity in the last few years. Earlier it was limited to marriage. But jewellery is like an investment..acts as a contingency fund in times when we most need it, when we fall short of money during financial crunch.

Yes I agree with you. In Dhanteras people flock in jewellery shops to buy gold, silver and even utensils. It is a custom and at that time there are lot of Diwali offers, schemes and discounts and people make best use of it. In this unpredictable economic condition jewellery can give you more value in the long run. Many people because of its fluctuating value stock jewellery in advance when it's price is low so that it can be later passed on to their children.

Women love to wear gold jewels. Jewels makes women beautiful. Apart from this Jewels is one of the best option to invest. Price of gold jewels are never fall.

Gold jewelery not only enhances the beauty of woman, they act as a life saver at times. Also certain male members of the society also decorate themselves with lot of gold jewellery. So it is not quite right to say why only woman give more importance to gold jewellery. After all, it is one of best way to invest and at the same time accrue the benefits for a life time.

Why only women ? Even men too evince lot of interest in possessing Gold ornaments. I for one look in to Gold as a wise investment and a beautification tool.

Jewellery is originally made to make women appear beautiful and feel confident in themselves and also act as a sure guarantee of saving the family during hard times. But lately, the kind of craze that is seen is quite disturbing. People with a little extra money to spare, even the poorest of ones, will flock the jewellery shops to buy gold during Akshay Trittiya, a day which has now become an important event for many. Celebrations of Akshay trittiya are originally meant for something else but is now limited to buying gold, diamonds, and thus helping rocket the prices of gold through the roof!

@Rambabu, true...men are not lagging behind in terms of wearing gold. You should see several politicians in Maharashtra wearing kilos and kilos of gold! :blink: :blink: Flaunting it boldly all at the expenses of the commoners.

True. I have seen Datta Phuge's Rs. 1.25 crore worth of a shirt woven with gold thread. He's an aspirant for a seat for the elections. So naturally he has to display his worth. It doesn't take much time to recover the amount once he's elected.

Traditionally, women love jewellety. Some items of jewellery are also considered as symbol of marrid status or 'suhag'. Moreover gold and silver have been source of investment since long when there was no banking system even. Personally, I have no gold or any ornament- not even a ring in finger. I feel that ornaments are unnecessary burden on body. I wonder how women carry so much weight on their body.

//Some items of jewellery are also considered as symbol of marrid status or 'suhag'.// this is made and sometimes imposed on married ladies..but now even married women do not like to wear heavy gold jewellery or symbols of marriage. This is again a trick played by a male dominated society, because I have never seen a married man wearing symbols of marriage. It is only prevalent among Christians ..as per my observation to wear a ring as symbol of marriage. A few married couple who hail from Kerela also engrave the name of their spouse on these rings as symbol of being married.

Practically, also it is not possible by married women to wear heavy jewellery to work places.

If the demand is high and the product is available the price will definitely should come low. But in the case of gold it is increasing day by day because people are ready to buy it at any cost. Why we want to artificially increase the price. The pawn brokers are making lot of tricks in jewels. They are earning more and more but if you go the jewelry shop and put your old jewelry and wants to buy a new one he will claim wastage,wage etc.. and increase the new jewel price also. We are not experienced in that line. Every time you buy a jewelry the shop owner will get benefit but you will get the loss and we are accepting the loss. For an item like TV, Fridge if you sell you can adjust the loss because these are electronic items any time anything can happen. Day by day new jewels are coming like smartphones. Our taste will differ in the future. Even the children will not accept our old jewelry. If you go the bank and pledge it for loan they will also calculate the wastage,wage etc.. So every time we are getting loss. This is the right time to think about this whether it is men or women.

Jewelry is part of dressing up, you wear dresses and jewelry to complement your looks, I dont see anything wrong in that if it is within sensible limits . It is only when wmen go to extreme lengths and it begins to become a status symbol that it seems ridiculous and superficial. It is nice to have a few pieces of jewelry which you can wear occassionally when you attend a formal function or even for daily wear if and when you feel like it ...I wear anything - gold, silver or junk jewelry if it looks nice but dont believe in hoarding or think of it as a status symbol.

I agree with you. Jewelry when worn in a simple and elegant manner will add beauty to woman. Even men too wear jewelry. Wearing jewelry is not restricted to women alone.

Though we cannot negate the fact that gold jewellery is much in demand, but now women also like wearing fashion jewellery. Now buying gold is mostly limited to special occasions like marriage, engagement or anniversary and then they are safely kept in a locker. More and more women have joined offices and workforces so wearing heavy jewellery is not in anymore.

Exception is AP. here still it's considered as a status symbol.and they wear even in offices. You can have look at the Rasoi programmes, women are bedecked with tons of jewellery from head to toe

In several states still gold is considered as a status symbol. Whenever you consider it as a status symbol the prices are automatically increasing. When women enter with jewel there is a chance for thief and chain snatchers to do their work easily.

Yet another reason not to wear gold jewellery...chain snatching is very common in of late.

Even such incidents of chain snatching which are rampant here, would not deter our AP women from wearing gold jewellery. They attend night shows wearing jewels. The purchasing power of Teligus is very high.

We cannot predict about the robbery person mood what he wants from us jewel or life. You should not lose your life for the sake of jewels. Life is more important than jewels.

Sometimes people who wear gold jewellery lose both life and gold jewellery because of wearing gold..

No day passes here without an incident of chain snatching or burglary. Chain snatching are not just restricted to roads. . Chain snatching and looting the travellers in the trains have become a regular feature.
