Jewelry has always been related to money, power, glamor and good taste, in the case of the youngest ones, its purpose is not very different, besides it is frequently worn as a complement to the protection pieces according to each belief.

One of the most common jewels in children are identity bracelets or very thin gold bracelets engraved with their name or initials, these are usually accompanied by a small red stone called peony and a jet, since it is believed that both are used as a protection measure because the belief says that with this, the boy or girl will be able to remove bad energies that exist around him or her.
For little girls the wearing of jewelry is much greater and more common, because they can wear chains with charms, pure gold earrings or with precious stones, and even small tiaras for special occasions, like a baptism. These generally have small pink stones and are made of gold, either white, pink or yellow.
While jewelry for boys to wear is generally silver and is much simpler; and they usually wear only a chain with charms (like a cross, which is traditional in baptism in the Catholic religion). However, for the most demanding tastes, there are also pieces made with white gold and blue sapphires.

Normally these are elaborated in gold, silver or stainless steel, in addition there are several companies specialized in their design and elaboration.
