Since time immemorial, metal jewellery has been a huge part of multiple cultures and traditions across the world. Having trickled down to fashion, some of the most monumental moments in accessorizing stems from metal jewellery. But what we often miss out in the chaos of fashion and trends is the significance of the metal we wear.
