Why Do We Love To Receive Gold Jewelry So Much? |

What is it about the gift of gold jewelry that makes the recipient feel so spoiled and indulged? My husband has given me several items of gold jewelry over the years but for me it never gets old. I am just as delighted about receiving it today as I was when we first met. I think perhaps the gift of gold jewelry is so well received by women is that we associate it with glamour and prosperity. I can remember hearing tales of princesses who wore gold jewelry and fine clothing when I was a young child and I would picture myself as the protagonist in the tale. I also think the common love of gold jewelry has something to do with the fact that it is a gift that looks fantastic and lasts for a whole lifetime provided it is well looked after. The same cannot really be said for an item of clothing or a bottle of perfume. There are items of gold jewelry in my armoire that I have had for years and I intend to treasure them for the rest of my life and hand them down to the next generation one day.
