Which One Is Better: Casting Jewelry or Handmade Jewelry

The majority portion of the jewelry that you see today in malls and in jewelry chain stores is casting jewelry. In this particular type of jewelry, hundreds of the same or similar designs are created using the process of casting and then they are inserted with calibrated gemstones of standard sizes. India, Hong Kong, China, and Thailand are some of the big centers of mass jewelry production specifically through the process of casting. Handmade jewelry is jewelry made by artisans without using any mass-manufacturing machines, purely using hand or tools that use hand guidance (such as drills, lathes, or any other machinery). You will never find any sort of standard look when it comes to handmade jewelry. It can range from a simple pendant formed through wire wrapping to jewelry having intricate designs that can take hours or even days and skilled techniques to finish.
