Women's are passionate about Jewellery as it represented a symbol of femininity and even social status. Jewellery has always made women feel beautiful and confident. The jewellery items are made of diamonds, pearl, gold, silver or other precious materials, the importance of Jewellery has always subsided in its ability to add to a women's natural beauty. 

Beauty that is skin deep is always subjected to praise. A glance at the past reveals that it was the Jewellery that had been radiating this inner beauty by adorning the neck, forehead, ears, hands, waists and feet of both the genders. It is even today that young to middle aged women are crazy about Jewellery. Skilful hands mold precious metals to create magnificent collections of necklaces, earrings, bracelets and even fashion Jewellery. When these artistically curved metals find the right place on a woman's naturally curved figure, they get their due respect and the woman glows with a change in her body language.



It is believed that the patient was taking these items from her brother's jewelry store. She's now in psychiatry for treatment and rehabilitation.
