About 1950s and 1960s jewelry:
The manufacturing of jewelry depends on prosperity. When people are able to afford jewelry, it is fashionable to buy and wear it. The United States emerged from World War II as a superpower. The 1950’s and 1960’s were decades of economic growth. Working class Americans had money to spend on jewelry. Public education, the mass media, and television informed the nation enough about past events to develop keen interests in all styles of jewelry. People chose to wear diverse styles of jewelry. They developed discriminating tastes, which the jewelry industry sought to satisfy. These factors gave the jewelry industry a boost and allowed jewelry retailers to make a profit. Many people began collecting jewelry in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Some wonderful jewelry collections trace their origins to this time.
