Are famous for wearing colorful bead necklaces and Queen Cleopatra was possibly the pioneer of costume jewelry.

tortoise shells, etc.But now modern materials are used as they are much environment friendly and cheap. Designers now prefer to use plastic beads, fake stones, and other variants of polycarbonate.
