The olive wreath also known as kotinos was the prize for the winner at the ancient Olympic Games. It was an olive branch, of the wild- olive tree that grew at Olympia, intertwined to form a circle or a horse-shoe. According to Pausanias it was introduced by Heracles as a prize for the running race winner to honor his father Zeus. In the ancient Olympic Games there were no gold, silver, or bronze medals. There was only one winner per event, crowned with an olive wreath made of wild-olive leaves from a sacred tree near the temple of Zeus at Olympia. Olive wreaths were given out during the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens in honor of the ancient tradition because the games were being held in Greece.

Doublet jewelry is very special piece of jewel due to the way it is compounded. Doublet is a modern and very fashionable design that was invented in order to make stones such as lapis lazuli, turquoise and other non-transparent stones glow and create unique colors from them. There is the unification of two gemstones, which usually consists of quartz and another non transparent stone. Quartz in this case gives radiance to the other stone and also volume. Due to its composition doublet jewelry needs to be looked after. To keep them in good shape you need to avoid contact with chemicals, such as soap or perfumes. Quartz has the tendency to lose its shininess when touched with sweaty hands, we advise you from time to time to you use a soft cloth to polish and give brightness to it.
