Etymology
The word 'bijoux' comes from French, where it simply means 'jewels' or 'pretty things'. Its origin can be traced back to the Old French word 'bijou', which was derived from the Latin term 'buculum', meaning 'a small thing'. In the context of fashion and accessories, 'bijoux' has evolved to refer specifically to ornamental items that are not necessarily made from precious metals or stones, often emphasizing artistry and uniqueness. The adoption of this term into the English language signifies the influence of French culture on fashion and lifestyle, especially in the areas of decoration and personal adornment.
