Bauble

For those of you who do not know what a bauble is, I offer the following definition:

bau·ble [baw-buhl] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation –noun
1.a showy, usually cheap, ornament; trinket; gewgaw.
2.a jester's scepter.

When I am using the term "bauble", I am referring to a small bit of jewelry that holds significantly more weight emotionally or sentimentally than monetary. In no way would I consider a bauble to be "cheap"; rather, I consider it of personal worth to the owner.

I hope that provides the clarification needed.
