    During the Industrial Revolution, the concept of mass production enabled the newly established middle class of society to purchase items such as jewelry boxes, in addition to other luxury items. As jewelry boxes were being manufactured in bulk, the cost involved to produce them, as well as the cost to the consumer, was considerably less. What was considered a luxury item could now by enjoyed by
  • A Charmed History: Charm Bracelets Provide Hope and Comfort Throughout the Ages
    As far back as the Neolithic era, humankind chose to carry unusual stones or a piece of wood as protection from enemies or evil spirits.

Charms were also used to identify an individual to the gods in the afterlife.

  • Cigars And Music: A Natural Combination
    Or maybe it's because both cigars and music are contemplative pleasures.

But to really enjoy a great performance, or a good tobacco, sitting still and paying attention are necessary.

  • Extreme Diamonds Fascinate Those Who Behold Them
    Marie Antoinette was known for her dazzling jewelry collection and love of bling.

  • Fantastic Philadelphia: Educational Travel Has Never Been So Fun

  • Fun Facts About Gold Jewelry

  • Going, Going, Gone...Through The Roof!: Cigar Prices At Auction
    Pre-embargo cigars (the only kind on which Americans could legally bid) escalated in price, going in some cases for over $2500, and this market outlook in turn encouraged some longtime cigar collectors to loosen their grip on their prize smokes. The number of cigars available at auction grew alongside the prices these boxes might fetch.
  • Gold Mining: How We Dig It
    There are two main gold mining methods, one is called "placer" and the other is "vein" mining. And another type of mining is when gold is collected as a by-product in the mining of other metals.
  • Great African-American Jockeys In American Thoroughbred Racing
    American sports, like most American institutions, has a history of shameful racism, and this includes Thoroughbred horse racing - as anyone who has scanned the insulting, stereotypical names of some racehorses of the 1920s will confirm. At the same time, one of the inspiring things about sports is that way that, at least some of the time, excellence triumphs even in the face of prejudice.
  • Great Contemporary Thoroughbred Horse Jockeys
    Many sports rival it, but you'd be hard pressed to name any competitive human activity harder than being a jockey. There's the food deprivation - the constant training - the danger, even likelihood, of bone-crushing accidents. No wonder that of all athletes, jockeys face some of the highest insurance premium costs in sports.
  • Great Quotes In The History Of Cigars
    Every great pastime inspires its own rich history and lore, including its own library of great sayings - though these are often edited a little by tradition.
    In sports, there's Yogi Berra's "It ain't over till it's over." In classical music, expressing a similar sentiment: "It ain't over till the fat lady sings."
  • Great Racehorses Of The Seventies
    The 1970s represents one of the last decades when high-stakes Thoroughbred races dominated the public mind as they had done during the 1920s, '30s and '40s, when great horses like Man O'War, Seabiscuit, and Citation went from being sports-page celebrities to bona fide culture heroes. Take a look at two great stories of '70s horseracing: the rivalry between Affirmed and Alydar, and
  • Holy Smoke!: When Tobacco Was A Religious Ritual
    Many cigar smokers know that their chosen indulgence was once, for many Native American groups, part of religious ceremonies. But do they also know that as late as 1586, one British scientist was so taken with the mind- and feeling-altering powers of tobacco as to call it a "holy smoke"?
  • Horses In Art, Literature And Mythology
    Few animals have influenced the history of human culture like the horse. These four-legged running machines gave us food, mobility, and enhanced success at hunting hard-to-catch animals. And the influence goes both ways: archaeologists say that horse skeletons dating from 2000-2500 BCE already show differences from those of wild horses that attest to the effects of breeding and (partial) domestic
  • Horses In Art, Literature And Mythology II
    European artists and storytellers had a rich tradition to draw on in depicting the sometimes-crucial relationship between humans and horses. Greek and Roman myth yielded such vivid horse-characters as the winged Pegasus, the man-eating Mares of Diomedes, and the horses who drive Apollo's sun-chariot across the sky. More recent Norse mythology, also, associated horses with nobility and power.
  • Horses In Art, Literature And Mythology III
    During the twentieth century, representational paintings of horses became increasingly the domain of "horse painters" such as Richard Stone Reeves (1919-2005). The New York City-born artist is, himself, representational of this genre of painting.
  • How Are Cigars Rated?

  • How Birthstones Were Born
    The conception of birthstones can be traced back to the first century. It was believed that gemstones possessed virtues or cures. By assigning a specific gemstone to each month of the year, the power of that stone was released to those born in that month. In the early 1900s, the American National Association of Jewelers instituted a list of 12 gems that represented each month of the year:
  • How To Become a Jewelry Designer
    Creating jewelry requires more than just sketching ideas on a pad of paper or stringing together a few beads. Designing jewelry requires experience in forming metal through soldering and casting, for instance. Experience in metalworking will come in handy as well, possessing the ability to shape metal.
  • How To Build A Cigar Memorabilia Collection
    Many cigar smokers throw out those paper bands encircling their favorite stogies on the way to smoking them. As for the boxes the cigars come in - what about them? Old cigar advertisements, humidors that no longer humidify, and other cigar-related accoutrement are often subject to the same ignoble fate. But for others that cigar band, that old humidor, that cigar box, are all bits of history - collectibles that evoke the magic and mystery of smoking.
  • How To Care for Sterling Silver Jewelry
    Since ancient times, silver has been used to make jewelry and decorative items. However, since the 18th century, more silver has been mined and used than in all prior centuries combined. Silver alone is a soft metal and therefore too soft to be used for jewelry and other items. To make it more durable, it is mixed with other metals, known as alloy, to create sterling silver.
  • How To Tell A Real Cuban Cigar From The Fakers
    Cuba was involved, then, in the very birth of the cigar. From early on - 1830 or so - much of the region's tobacco was grown in the Vuelta Abajo (or Vueltabajo) district of Pinar del Rio Province, in the shadow of the Organos Mountains. This area is considered a "microclimate" - its climate differs from the area surrounding it - perhaps because of the influence of the mountains; for whatever

  • Jewel Box of the Indian Ocean: The Story of Sri Lanka's Gems
    Imagine a place where gems are so prolific, they are scattered among the sandy bottoms of smooth-flowing streams. The beautiful and exotic island of Sri Lanka is just such a place. Marco Polo wrote of its jewel-like wonders: "from its streams comes rubies, sapphires, topazes, amethyst, and garnet."
  • Know What You're Buying: Understanding Your Diamond Grading Report

  • Log Cabins And Lincoln Rear Ends: The Strange World Of Collectible Cigar Boxes
    The novelty cigar box began with a Federal decision in 1878, when postal codes were changed to allow packages of cigars (a heavily-regulated good, in the post-Civil War economy) to be mailed in any shape or size, as long as you could still put a stamp on 'em. This legislative loosening just happened to come along at a moment when new tobaccos were being developed and demand, stimulated by a generation of Union soldiers who'd had to pass through tobacco country and acquired the smoking habit.

  • Mixing It Up: Food And Drinks That Go Well With Cigars
    The question about beverages is easiest to answer: Wine, the finer the better. After all, the two items make a kind of sense together: they're both somewhat acquired tastes, they both benefit from aging, and they both need to be savored, not rushed. Many experts recommend red wine, especially rich red wines such as port.
  • Moissanite: Imitation Diamonds from Space Feature Spectacular Fire
    One of the hottest new trends in jewelry, moissanite was borne from the stars to earth by a meteorite.

Dr. Moissan, after which the crystal is named, observed the stone's sparkle and mistakenly thought it to be

Even the museum's exterior has been put to artful use with a mural by artist Barry McGee.
  • Nicaragua: The Tobacco-Producing Country That Endures
    To cigar smokers, Nicaragua is already legendary. Through regime change, social upheaval, and revolution, this Latin American nation has produced some of the world's finest tobacco. And since the post-1959 "cigar diaspora" - when many of Cuba's great cigar makers fled the country to seek more propitious conditions than those they expected to find under Castro - it's produced many of the world's
  • Novelty Cigar Boxes: The Second Wave
    The novelty cigar box began with a Federal decision in 1878, when postal codes were changed to allow packages of cigars (a heavily-regulated good, in the post-Civil War economy) to be mailed in any shape or size, as long as you could still put a stamp on 'em. This legislative loosening just happened to come along at a moment when new tobaccos were being developed and demand, stimulated by a generation of Union soldiers who'd had to pass through tobacco country and acquired the smoking habit.

  • Some Of 2008's Top Cigars
    The end of 2008 has induced the same kind of retrospective mood among cigar devotees--with the result that people who write for cigar publications and blogs are trying to argue out which of the cigars introduced during the past year provided the richest, most satisfying smoking experience. Without serving as final arbiter among such judgments, here are some names that have popped up multiple times
  • Sport Shooting: We Owe It All To The Civil War
    What may be surprising, however, is the origin of the sport, and its roots in American history. The idea of practice and target shooting as a pastime began in the period after the Civil War - a war in which, as it turns out, poor marksmanship was widespread. Two Union Army officers were bothered enough by this dearth of good marksmen among the citizen-soldiers of the War Between the States that
  • Stories Of The Cigar Companies: Camacho
    Famous literary critic Harold Bloom (as seen on TV, elderly, wild-haired and wild-eyed, pounding some talk show's table on behalf of the Great Books) likes to argue that all of literary history comes down to competition and struggle. Each poet (or novelist, or essayist) must fight against some privileged, influential ancestor, trying to emerge from the earlier writer's giant shadow.

  • The History (And Value) Of Cigar Bands

  • Tobacco: The Rich-Tasting, Smokable Part Of Virginia History

  • Unnatural Selection: A Brief History Of Horse Breeding

  • Utility Knife to Artful Weaponry, the Knife Leaves Its Mark in History
    As ancient as mankind itself, the knife is the earliest form of weaponry for which there has been no substitute.

  • V-Cutter, Cigar Guillotine Or What? A Cigar Smoker's Weapon Of Choice
