Tips on Wearing Jewelry

August 13th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in Diamond jewelry | gemstone jewelry | Jewelry - (0 Comments)

diamond jewelryWearing gemstone or diamond jewelry comes naturally to some women and they know how to use it to great effect.  For others though, they might need a little advice on how and what to wear to get them looking fabulous for the night out.  Check out some tips below to help you wear your jewelry the right way:

  • Necklaces.  First you need to figure out if you’re wearing a low-cut or high-neck dress.  There is no hard rule to this but it would be best if you work within the boundaries of good taste.  Keep that in mind when wearing a necklace.
  • Bracelets.  Bracelets should only be worn on your right wrist.  With a diamond-studded bracelet you do not want it to be loose; if it was loose, you would run the risk of it colliding with a hard surface and dislodging or damaging the bracelet.
  • Earrings.  Long, dangling earrings look great with smooth hair and tall women.  On the other hand if you are petite, small earrings would work best.
  • Rings.  Rings are usually considered the penultimate jewelry to wear due to their aesthetic and symbolic value.  Women with slim fingers should wear small diamonds of 2 carats or less.

Organize & Protect Your Jewelry

August 7th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in Diamond jewelry | gemstone jewelry | Jewelry - (0 Comments)

gemstone jewelryConsidering the value of your jewelry – both the sentimental and physical value – it is in your best interest to keep your prized possessions in excellent condition.  The easiest way to do this is by organizing your diamond and gemstone jewelry.  Here are a few tips on reorganizing your wares and your jewelry box:

  • If you are always fumbling about with your jewelry box, unsure as to what you will be wearing for the night out, you should take everything out of the compartments and simply reorganize it.  A great way to do this is to organize your jewelry by occasion, i.e. formal and casual.   This will help you get on your way that much quicker.  You can also organize by color sets, which will work well if you are going out wearing your favorite colored dress.
  • You should place your jewelry box on your dresser.  You will not only have easy access to them, with a large mirror you can check yourself out and see if that particular necklace or pair of earrings looks good with the rest of the outfit.
  • For the very valuable heirlooms you may want to keep those separate from your normal jewelry and keep them in a safer place.

Buying Jewelry for Her Birthday

July 25th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in Diamond jewelry | gemstone jewelry | Jewelry - (0 Comments)

diamond jewelryYour significant other’s birthday is coming up soon and you are thinking about getting her diamond jewelry to celebrate.  You understand that you should not get her a ring, at least not yet; you are not ready to propose to her but one day you hope to.  Until then however, you are down to either getting her a bracelet, earrings, or a necklace.  There might only be three choices but you still need to think hard about what you want to get her.  Good thing you have come to the right place for advice!

You should consider getting her jewelry with gemstones that correspond with her birth month.  This is a relatively simple but effective way to wow her, regardless of what type pf jewelry you get her.  Considering it is her birthday, this choice of present makes a lot of sense.  This is the kind of attention to detail women love and it shows how much you care about all the things about her.  Gemstone jewelry makes for excellent birthday presents.  For holidays, you should consider getting her earrings.

For all the married men out there you are probably thinking, how can you beat the wedding ring you have already given her?  You cannot; but that does not mean you can slack off.  For the all-important anniversaries – 1st, 5th, 10th, and so on – diamond necklaces will work splendidly.

What Are the 4 C’s of Diamonds?

July 19th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in Diamond jewelry | gemstone jewelry | Jewelry | yellow diamonds - (0 Comments)

grading diamondsLike with other things in life, not all diamonds are made equal.  To most people a diamond is a diamond is a diamond; what is the difference really as long as it sparkles?  To the average lay person this may be a fair question but to those in the business or who are very discerning diamond or jewelry buyers, they want to know every single detail about the diamond they are purchasing.  This means having a handle on the so-called “4 C’s.”  They are as follows:

  • Carat weight.  This is the unit of weight for all gemstones.  Each carat is divided into 100 points and there are 5 carats in a single gram.  The word originated from the use of carob tree pod seeds to measure weight – this was used until the 20th century.
  • Clarity.  This is determined by things called inclusions, which are found inside the diamond and surface features called blemishes.  This takes into account the number, position, size, and color of both.
  • Color.  A diamond’s color ranges from colorless (D) to deeply colored (Z).  Anything beyond the Z rating is called fancy colors.
  • Cut.  This determines if the diamond catches a person’s eye.

How to Color Coordinate Jewelry with Your Outfit

July 10th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in Diamond jewelry | gemstone jewelry - (0 Comments)

gemstone jewelryYou want to look good for any night out on the town with your friends.  Or you want to look good for an upcoming date.  Or, you want to look good in general and prove to yourself that you have style.  In any case, you can do this by color coordinating your outfit with any gemstone jewelry you might have.

First, you need to know what the primary colors are;  red, blue, and yellow.  Next up are the secondary colors (which you get from mixing two of the primary colors): purple, orange, and green.  From there you can begin to color coordinate your wardrobe and accessories.

First, you have to determine which color is the dominant color of your outfit.  It is easy to figure out with solids. But if you are wearing a patterned blouse or shirt, choose the color there seems to be more of, or is more apparent. If it seems equal, you can actually work with either color as the dominant one. Next, you have to find the complement of primary color; they are:

  • Red & green
  • Yellow & purple
  • Blue & orange

How do you use this information?   If you have a purple dress you like to wear – and good for you for pulling that one off! – you can wear a yellow diamond necklace or similar jewelry to contrast with it.

Use this information for the next time you head out and you will be the center of attention.

Making an Impression with a Gemstone Ring

June 26th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in gemstone jewelry | gemstone rings | Jewelry - (0 Comments)

gemstone ringsRings, especially engagement rings, are very symbolic items to give someone you care deeply for.  The circular design of a ring can represent the never-ending bond between the giver and the receiver.  This is why engagement rings are the standard when a man wishes to propose to a woman.  This is part of the reason why when a man gives a woman a ring – notice it is not a necklace or earrings, but a ring – her mind automatically goes to the idea that he wants her hand in marriage.  While most people go with the standard clear diamond, you might consider giving her a colored gemstone ring instead.

Gemstone rings are a great way to make the gift and the moment that much more memorable; very few people actually choose a gemstone engagement ring when they mean to propose to a longtime love.  With a colored gemstone you can match it to her favorite color or her birth month; you can even match it to the month you proposed to her or when you intend to have the ceremony!  This is the kind of outside-the-box thinking that will make your marriage proposal that much more special and one she will share with all her friends and family.

Sapphire Jewelry Is For Royalty

May 21st, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in gemstone jewelry | gemstone rings | Jewelry - (0 Comments)

sapphire jewelryOkay, this is not entirely true.  Sapphire jewelry is not exclusive to princes, princesses, kings, queens and the like.  They are for the rest of us as well who were not born into the hierarchy that royalty possesses.

That beautiful and eye-popping blue color of sapphire jewelry is what makes it a popular choice among jewelry buyers from across every spectrum of life.  I dare you to tell me that jewelry with sapphire gemstones are not gorgeous to look at; you cannot do it can you?  With the exception of rubies (red is my favorite color), nothing catches my eye more than sapphires do.  And even more beautiful than the normal sapphires you may see people wearing or those found in jewelry stores is a star sapphire.  These very rare sapphires have inclusions in its structure that causes it to have a star-shaped pattern.  The two most famous star sapphires are the Black Star of Queensland and the Star of Bombay.

If you are looking to make a very strong impression on your significant other then you should consider sapphire jewelry.  The signature blue of a sapphire ring or necklace is something that is almost unparalleled.  Take a look at your local jewelry dealer to see what I mean.

gemstone engagement ringFinding the right jewelry for the love of your life can be a very hard thing to do.  In the front and in the back of your mind you are worried that she is not going to like it or it does not look good on her or a host of other concerns.  But, do not stress over it too much; she will love what you give her, especially if the jewelry is customized to her like a gemstone engagement ring would be.

But why a gemstone engagement ring?  Well, since you can pick which gemstone you want as the center stone, you can choose it based on your future bride’s favorite color or birth stone.  This little extra attention to detail can and will go a long way with your engagement and subsequent marriage.  Each gemstone even has their own symbolism attached to them.  Sapphires, for example, have been associated with happiness and inspiration.  Rubies have been used as a symbol of love and friendship.  The amethyst, the birthstone for the month of February, is supposed to helps with your feelings and clearing your mind.

The intrinsic value and symbolism of gemstones combined with jewelry makes for an excellent combination.

Customize Your Gift With a Semi Mount Ring

April 23rd, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in Diamond jewelry | gemstone jewelry | gemstone rings | Jewelry - (0 Comments)

semi mount ringWhen most people think about buying their loved one a ring their mind automatically pictures shopping at a jewelry store, looking through the glass cases, and then choosing a ring with a big diamond already set into it.  While this is perfectly okay, why not go a different route for meaningful diamond semi mount ring?

If you do not know, a diamond semi mount ring has all the usual settings and details any other ring may have except for the main stone.  This kind of ring is referred to with this moniker because it indicates that the ring is not fully complete without the main stone set.  So how does this incomplete ring make an excellent choice for a gift?  You can customize the stone you want set into the ring.  If you have a previous diamond from a different ring – or even a diamond passed down to you and has some sort of significance – you can set it into this type of ring.  Customizing the ring in this way makes the act of giving this ring much more meaning than just going to a jeweler and picking a ring out from behind a case.

The next time you want to go ring shopping, give semi mounts a second thought; I doubt you will regret it.

Why Anyone Would Buy Sapphire Jewelry

April 17th, 2012 | Posted by HeinreichS in gemstone jewelry | gemstone rings - (0 Comments)

sapphire jewelry“Why anyone would want to buy sapphire jewelry?”  This is a question easily answered just by looking at jewelry pieces with sapphire stones set in them.  In jewelry pieces that can rightly be called works of art, have you ever seen a blue that beautiful and brilliant before in your life?  I somehow doubt it.  While diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, the blue hues of sapphires are easily one of the most beautiful colors of precious gems.  That is part of the reason why sapphires and sapphire jewelry are so popular amongst royalty and the everyday folk as well.

Sapphires, besides their intrinsic value, has a lot more meaning to them than just something that can be measured in monetary currency.  These precious stones can mean truth, hope, wisdom, and can even offer protection to those who wear it.  One can argue that this is part of the reason this stone was so favored by royalty of the past.  You can also say that is why sapphires are still prized today.

So the next time you are thinking about buying jewelry items with precious stones embedded in them for that special someone, keep in mind that sapphires are amongst the most prized and beautiful stones in existence.
