    I really disagree with the statement that jewelry is not art. To
    take the position that the decorative arts are not art is completely
    without justification. Of course we will never all agree on a
    definition of "art", but it certainly includes appropriate jewelry. 

    My own view is that "art" requires more than the juxtaposition of
    objects that no one else has put together, but obviously many people
    disagree.
