Saturday Night Live – The Best of Steve Martin

Jewelry stands come in all shapes and varieties and are a favorite dresser adornment for people on the go.  While the jewelry box is great for keeping all our jewelry safe and protect in addition to keeping it tangle free, the jewelry stand is a convenient place to store every day items.  Jewelry stands are a decorative and serve to hold the jewelry we wear every day and to keep it from getting damaged.  Cherie jewelry stands add feminine charm to any dresser, bureau or night stand.  People have even used them in the bathroom.  Designed to look like a Victorian woman, these stands are dressed in a Victorian gown with hat.  You can just feel the Victorian era flow.It is reminiscent of the old time mannequins dress designers used to pin patterns and clothing on back in the day.  We all imagined what the woman wearing the dress would look like and it is the symbol in our minds for design.  As little girls we all loved dolls and playing dress up.  The Cherie jewelry stand brings it all back with the stand dressed in a Velveteen gown and beaded colored hat.  The eight twisted, rope style, metal jewelry holders act to hold necklaces, bracelets and ear rings.  The gown and hat come in blue, tan, or Black.  Standing 6″ x 6″ x 15 3/4″, both teens and adult women love it.Teens love to decorate their dressers and display their favorite jewelry.  It may be their favorite costume jewelry from the accessory store or a treasured necklace from a parent or godparent, and yes even jewelry from a boy friend is displayed on the jewelry stands.Jewelry stands can be used in place of or to accompany a jewelry box.  Where the jewelry box holds more, the jewelry stand is more convenient.  Sometimes it can be used just as a decorative piece, holding a few necklaces that we do not wear as much and yet, want to display.  The Victorian style compliments any bedroom and adds a little bit of style and femininity at the same time.Women have loved jewelry through the ages.  It can symbolize so much and be passed down through generations.  Once a symbol for men to show power and status, women soon relished in the jewels given to them by men.  Where at one time only royalty had the privilege of wearing such precious items, soon the masses came into play.  Costume jewelry hit the scene to accommodate those who could not afford real stones, yet wanted to have the same style as those who could.  The cubic zirconia has been so perfected that only a jeweler can tell the difference from it and a real diamond.In fact, some diamonds on the market can be so flawed that the fake diamonds look even better or richer.  Diamonds have always been a girls best friend and it continues to this day.  A symbol for marriage and unity, the diamond engagement is now a tradition and a medal of honor to those who find the man of their dreams.
