Jewellery
Jewellery (also spelled jewelry, see spelling differences) is a personal
ornament, such as a necklace, ring, or bracelet, made from jewels,
precious metals or other substance.The word jewellery is derived from the word jewel, which was
anglicised from the Old
French "jouel" in around the 13th century. Further tracing leads back to the
Latin word "jocale", meaning plaything. Jewellery is one of the oldest forms of body adornment; recently found 100,000 year-old
Nassarius shells that were made into beads are thought to be the oldest known jewellery.
