When the remains of Harappa & Mohenjodaro of the Tamil civilisation were discovered, beads and bangles were found. The reason for holding this conclusively was that they were similar to the designs of Mesopotamia & Iran. A lot of bangles in old times were made from dangly coins and Islamic half moons. They were on necklaces and bracelets. But carnelian beads were worn exclusively by women.

Next, many gems are crystals which are classified by their crystal system such as cubic or trigonal or monoclinic. They may have luminescence and a distinctive absorption spectrum. For example, diamonds are made of carbon (C) and rubies of aluminium oxide (Al2O3). Another term used is habit, the form the gem is usually found in. For example diamonds, which have a cubic crystal system, are often found as octahedrons.

Obviously some sites online will sell chintzy materials, but this doesn't go for every place out there, you simply have to know where to look and what to look for! There is no such thing as high quality or low quality sterling, because sterling simply put is the best there is! The overall weight unit of the sterling silver applied in the piece should be the determining component in the cost, unless the item was hand-made, in which case it will cost substantially more than similar pieces that were not handmade.
