Jewellery as investment
In the Hindu, Jain and Sikh community where women do not inherit landed property, precious metal jewellery was a major component of the streedhana (gifts given to a woman at the time of her marriage). Jewellery, because of its easy convertibility into cash, was thus regarded as security and investment.If you are thinking of purchasing a piece of Jewellery, perhaps to celebrate a special occasion, why limit your choice to what is available to anyone?
The majority of Jewellery sold is mass-produced. Hundreds of people will probably have bought that piece before you, and as many more will buy it after you. Is that really such a "special" gift? A little extra thought and planning can mean you are able to give a piece of Jewellery which large numbers of other people can't just walk into a shop and buy. It makes your gift so much more personal, and special.
