February 26th, 2010 by anderseriksson

When you’re learning about something new, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of relevant information available. This informative article should help you focus on the central points.

Earrings is like adding icing to a cake, it is the finishing touch to a women’s fashion ensemble. Cubic zirconia in its diamond like appearance and its colored version are used in the designs of earrings. You will find them in hoop earrings, droplet earrings, stud earrings, and the chandelier earrings. Mostly precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum and titanium are used in cubic zirconia earrings, but you can find some with stainless steel.

Earrings have been around since about 2500 BC. but only the wealthy and royalty could afford to own them. These earrings were discovered in Iraq during an archeological dig. Only two types of earrings have been found dating back to that time era. They are the hoop earrings and the pendent earrings. Not long after the Egyptians began using what is known as earplugs. These are not the same type of earplugs we are familiar with today. They used earplugs in conjunction with piercing of the ear lobe. It is said King Tutankhamen had such a piercing in his ear.

Poverty dominated the Dark Ages to the point jewelry making was not made. The designs were secured and were used after the Dark Ages were over. Early Roman women used earrings to display their wealthy position. Precious stones such as emeralds, sapphires and aquamarines were used the most.

Once you begin to move beyond basic background information, you begin to realize that there’s more to Cubic Zirconia Jewlery than you may have first thought.

The changing of hairstyles influenced the designer of jewelry. There are times in history where earrings were not worn at all. The elaborate headdresses worn in the Middle Ages were not worn with earrings. The ears could not be seen. The bonnets of the 1800th century made it difficult to wear earrings. Also at that same time women wore their hair in a knot at the back of their head. Their ears not visible again.

When hairstyles started getting shorter or was worn swept up and away from the face. Designers were again making earrings. Today earring are sometime worn and sometimes not worn. It makes very little difference how today’s women wear their hair. We keep the earring designer very busy.

Cubic Zirconia Engagement Rings

February 6th, 2010 by anderseriksson

We are all familiar with the engagement ring. The man makes a commitment of marriage and shows it by the giving an engagement ring to the woman he intends to marry. We know June is one of the most popular months for weddings, and it has been noted engagement rings are a popular Christmas gift. Do we know when the tradition of the giving of an engagement ring started?

Engagement rings have been discovered as far back as the days of the Roman Empire. The rings were known as betrothal rings. They were given by a man to a woman to testify to their up coming nuptials. During this time era iron was the metal used to make the betrothal rings, not gold, and the betrothal rings were not adorned with a jewel.

Engravings on the inside of the engagement ring began in the 1600s and quickly became popular. The traditions has survived up to current times where the engraving of initials or the engagement date is often placed on the inside of the engagement ring.

Is everything making sense so far? If not, I’m sure that with just a little more reading, all the facts will fall into place.

The rings of recent times have been set with diamonds, but cubic zirconia settings have become more and more popular. The beauty of the stone rivals the beauty of a diamond, but the cost is about 75% less than the cost of a diamond.

Another tradition in engagement rings is having the engagement ring set with the bride’s birthstone as an accent to the diamond or cubic zirconia.

Engagement rings have become an integrated part of the marriage process. Some of those people who opt for just a simple wedding band do so because of cost. Some just like the simple band for simplicity sake. Those opting because of the cost in many cases will buy a more elaborate ring in their later years. Those newly engaged couples could opt to choose cubic zirconia over a diamond and enjoy the ring they want now for the price they can afford. Practical couple will consider saving money on the ring for a better use of the money saved in their new life or honeymoon. There could be thousands of uses for the money saved in the cost of the ring. There is no point in settling for a small stone and get a diamond when you can have the elaborate ring of your choice for less money. If you wish to include the birthstone of the bride, it can be done with the synthetic gemstones available. You will not sacrifice the brilliance and beauty of the ring for the cost. To the untrained eye the cubic zirconia can not be told apart from a diamond. No one will know the difference unless you tell them. You may be so proud of the ring and the money you saved, you may feel like shouting it off of a rooftop.

Right now you may be single, but you might want to take a good look at cubic zirconia engagement ring for when the time comes. See if you can tell the difference between the cubic zirconia and the diamond. Be sure to check out the quality of a cubic zirconia ring when compared to a diamond ring. They are plenty of web sites selling diamond and cubic zirconia rings. Sometimes you will see them side by side, and the only way to tell them apart is by the price. Cubic zirconia can be colored so you don’t have to settle for a white stone. To find the same color in the diamond will be difficult because they are rare and costly. When you are ready to take the plunge, look at the cubic zirconia rings before you make your final choice.

So now you know a little bit about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery. Even if you don’t know everything, you’ve done something worthwhile: you’ve expanded your knowledge.

Designer Gemstone in Cubic Zirconia Jewelry

January 6th, 2010 by anderseriksson

The following article lists some simple, informative tips that will help you have a better experience with Cubic Zirconia Jewlery.

Azotic Coating Technology, Inc. owns and operates the laboratory where these designer gemstones are created. These designer gemstones are created with a process developed and patented by Azotic Coating Technology, Inc. The process creates beautiful colors on stones, which would normally be white stones. The process has allowed them to create about 1800 unique and unusual colors. They have used their coating process on cubic zirconia, sapphires, quartz, and topaz. Topaz is the stone used most often and has a beautiful array of colors.

During the process the gemstones are coated with a sputter coat scattering of tiny flakes of mineral oxide. The minerals produce a variety of colors when it reflects through the stone. After the stone has been coated it must then go through a heating process to make the coating cling to the stone. The Federal Trade Commission has approved this method of enhancing gemstones.

Azotic Coating Technology, Inc. does not sell stones directly to the public. They process stones sent to them by wholesalers. Azotic Coating Technology, Inc. has no control over the quality of the stones given to them to put through the process. Many times they will get quality stone with unique cuts from the wholesaler, but not always. If you buy one of these stones, check it closely to make sure you didn’t receive a stone with nicks or scratches in it.

If you base what you do on inaccurate information, you might be unpleasantly surprised by the consequences. Make sure you get the whole Cubic Zirconia Jewlery story from informed sources.

The particularly extraordinary colors come from stones, which have been processed with more than one mineral. The best looking one of the stones processed with more than one mineral is the cubic zirconia stone. When pictures are taken of the same stone in different locations, the stone will appear to be a different stone in each different picture because of the light available at each different location. Each stone is a kaleidoscope of colors because of the constant changing of the light and the reflection. These stones are very unique in their colors after they have been processed.

Even though the Azotic Coating Technology, Inc. came up with names for all the 1800 different colors of the stones they have created, but some sellers are intent in changing the names of the stones. Sometimes a stone with a name not created by Azotic may be a stone processed by a different company. You might want to be careful when purchasing some of the other processed stones because the quality of the process may not be as good as the quality provided by the Azotic Coating Technology, Inc. Just make sure to ask your seller questions. If he seems to be evading the questions or evasive about the answers, Beware!

The thin coating applied during the process is hard and made to last. You will have to be careful when wearing these stones to prevent them from being nicked or scratched. You will want to take them off when doing some of your daily duties. When cleaning these processed stones, you will not want to use any ultrasonic cleaners. They may cause damage to the coating because of a pickling solution in the cleaner. Cleaners, which are safe to use on pearls and opals are recommended by Azotic. A mild soap and water, rinsed well will also work.

Those who only know one or two facts about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery can be confused by misleading information. The best way to help those who are misled is to gently correct them with the truths you’re learning here.

Telling the Difference Between a Cubic Zirconia and a Diamond

November 12th, 2009 by anderseriksson

So what is Cubic Zirconia Jewlery really all about? The following report includes some fascinating information about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery–info you can use, not just the old stuff they used to tell you.

Many people have always relied on the same old method of telling a real diamond from a fake. If it scratches glass, then it is a real diamond. However, that is not true anymore. Over the years a cubic zirconia has been made to fool the most discerning eyes and they can cut glass, too.

To be able to tell the difference between a cubic zirconia and a diamond you must learn the characteristics of the cubic zirconia. These same characteristics make them look similar to a diamond and also make them different from a diamond. Chances are you are not going to have this kind of scale put away on a shelf, but the cubic zirconia’s hardness is measured to be 8.3 on the Mohs scale whereas the diamond will register a 10. The cubic zirconia is flawless where as a flawless diamond is not only rare, but also very expensive. All diamonds will have some impurities in the stone.

Another characteristic of the cubic zirconia is the gray color it will have when exposed to sunlight for long periods of time. You can mark the stone in question with a grease tip pencil or felt tip marker. Because diamonds attract grease while cubic zirconia repels grease the marking will not stay on the cubic zirconia.

Checking the transparency of the stone is another test you can do on the stone you have purchased. Lay the stone in question on top of a newspaper, if you can read the print through the stone chances are it is not a diamond. However, this test is not 100 %, so there is a chance it is a diamond.

So far, we’ve uncovered some interesting facts about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery. You may decide that the following information is even more interesting.

Also, the facet edges of a stone can help you determine the real from the fake. The cubic zirconia’s edges are sometimes rounded with some chipping. If the stone has very sharp edges, you may have a diamond.

Then there is the fog test. Put fog on the stone like you would a mirror. If the stone stays fogging for a few seconds, you may have a cubic zirconia. Real diamonds will quickly dissolve the heat. However, the result of this test is not reliable if the stone has accumulated any dirt and oil.

If by chance you have access to a carat scale or a gram scale. You can analyze the stone’s weight. A cubic zirconia weighs more than a diamond with the stones both being the same size.

These tests can not be 100% reliable in determining the fake from the real diamond. If you have paid for a diamond and think you may have received a good fake take it too a qualified gemologist or jeweler.

There is nothing worse than paying for something you did not get. Thieves are using cubic zirconia stones to switch with real diamonds while pretending to shop at a jewelry store. Don’t always assume your jeweler is a thief. It could be he was robbed first and hadn’t noticed the switch in the fake diamonds for the real one.

When word gets around about your command of Cubic Zirconia Jewlery facts, others who need to know about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery will start to actively seek you out.

Choosing Cubic Zirconia Jewelry

October 10th, 2009 by anderseriksson

The following article covers a topic that has recently moved to center stage–at least it seems that way. If you’ve been thinking you need to know more about it, here’s your opportunity.

When you shop for cubic zirconia jewelry, consider the price you want to spend on the jewelry, and consider the look you are going for when choosing the jewelry. Because cubic zirconia is less costly than diamonds, some manufacturers will make them cheaply by using cheaper metals. Some manufacturers see the cubic zirconia as the beautiful stone they are, so they will make them with precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and the up and coming titanium. The cubic zirconia jewelry made with precious metals will cost more than cubic zirconia jewelry made with a cheaper metal.

Another difference you might be able to see with the naked eye is the way the cubic zirconia is cut. Cubic zirconia stones are mass-produced; some manufacturers will use a machine to cut the facets in the stones. However the manufacturers who see the stone for its own beauty will have the cubic zirconia stones hand-cut like a diamond.

If the cubic zirconia jewelry you have seen looks cheap, it is because it was cheaply handled and put together. However, there are several manufacturers who do beautiful work with cubic zirconia jewelry and the cubic zirconia jewelry will rival diamond jewelry.

So far, we’ve uncovered some interesting facts about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery. You may decide that the following information is even more interesting.

Even though cubic zirconia is not as hard as a diamond. It will cut glass just like a diamond when it has a quality cut and a professional hand polish. The same method and ingredients are used to make cubic zirconia stones. I believe the difference between a quality stone and a cheap looking stone is in the cutting and polishing of the stone. Even a diamond would not look as good if cheaply cut and cheaply polished, and neither does the cubic zirconia.

When they are creating the cubic zirconia stones certain minerals can be added to create a different color. Cubic zirconia can be made to look a number of quality gemstones, such as emerald, sapphires, and rubies just to name a few. A cubic zirconia can be created to match your birthstone. When the cubic zirconia is treated with the Azotic coating, the colors that emerge are stunning. They are even more stunning when added to a Topaz, which is the stone most treated with the Azotic coating process.

Probably the cubic zirconia jewelry seen by most people in stores is the less costly version, which is not made to rival a diamond, and does not show the cubic zirconia at its best. I have seen cubic zirconia jewelry online, which is not cheap. It costs less than the same setting with a diamond. However, it is difficult to tell quality by a picture on a web site.

The next time you go shopping for jewelry, ask about the cubic zirconia jewelry. You may be able to look at some of the quality cubic zirconia jewelry I have seen evidence of online. I would hate to think the only cubic zirconia jewelry in stores is cheaply made cubic zirconia jewelry. I think the cubic zirconia is a beautiful stone. The cubic zirconia even looks good in when it is placed in a gold plated setting, but personally I don’t believe those settings do the cubic zirconia justice.

Cubic Zirconia Jewelry versus Diamonds Jewelry

May 4th, 2009 by anderseriksson

When you think about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery, what do you think of first? Which aspects of Cubic Zirconia Jewlery are important, which are essential, and which ones can you take or leave? You be the judge.

Since coming to the world’s attention in the 1830s, diamonds in has been a favorite of stones for jewelry. Not everyone can afford to buy diamonds, so the search for the best man-made version has been battled for years. Cubic Zirconia is considered to be the best man-made diamond for jewelry on the market today.

There are several reasons some people do not purchase diamond jewelry. The first on being the over-inflated price some believe has been controlled by the DeBeers diamond coalition. Many people believe the prices do not reflect the rarity of diamonds in a fair manner. There have also been studies done showing one third of every diamond sold in the United States today has been altered by an artificial means to increase the value of the diamond. The same studies show young couples on an average are paying 40% too much for their diamond engagement ring.

The price is not the only reason some people are no longer gravitating awary from diamond jewelry. There are the issues of the so called “blood diamonds” with the disturbing rumors of forced child labor and several other horrible human atrocities and cruelties. Well-know celebrities have brought it to the attention of Americans by the refusal to wear diamonds on the “red carpet” and have chosen to wear cubic zirconia stones in all their jewelry adornments for the “Oscar’s” and other highly notable celebrity gatherings.

A good quality cubic zirconia in jewelry is practically identical from the mined diamonds. Even some jeweler can not tell the difference between a cubic zirconia and a diamond with out the aid of his gemologist’s tool. The cost of cubic zirconia jewelry is about 75% less than the cost of a mined diamond.

There are other synthetic diamonds used in the market today to replace diamonds in jewelry settings. The moissanite is a mineral created by a laboratory as a good diamond replacement stone. It was introduced into the market in the 1990s. It has become the choice of some for their fine jewelry collection. There are those who prefer moissante to cubic zirconia. The moissante match diamond in the hardness of the mineral, but there is a downside. The cost is about $500 per carat and the moissante does not have the brilliance and fire of a diamond or the cubic zirconia.

You may not consider everything you just read to be crucial information about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery. But don’t be surprised if you find yourself recalling and using this very information in the next few days.

Just recently introduced into the US jewelry market is the Diamond Nexus. The Diamond Nexus is a result of a new scientific processing technique. They are an excellent replacement stone for the mined diamond. They possess all the qualities of a diamond from the hardness to the brilliance and fire. They are only used in precious metal settings and are priced fairly reasonably at $79 a carat.

The Russian cubic zirconias are the cubic zirconia of the highest quality. The Russian cubic zirconia used in jewelry feature superior cutting and polishing techniques. Because of the masterful cutting and polishing techniques used to finish the stones, enhances the brilliance and fire of the stone creating a stone of a much higher quality than those mass produced and machine cut with very little polishing.

The Russian cubic zirconias used in jewelry are hand picked from the highest quality raw stones, hand cut by master cutters and hand polished. The specifications used for each of the Russian cubic zirconias are the same as those set down by the Gemological Institute of America for diamonds.

The Russian cubic zirconias are barely visible when compared to diamonds by experts. The experts must use advanced gemological tools to discern the differences between the Russian cubic zirconia and a diamond. Because the Russian cubic zirconia has more diffusion with light than a diamond, they have a profusion of fire and brilliance.

For my money, I will take a cubic zirconia jewelry over the other synthetic diamond jewelry any day.

There’s no doubt that the topic of Cubic Zirconia Jewlery can be fascinating. If you still have unanswered questions about Cubic Zirconia Jewlery, you may find what you’re looking for in the next article.
