The best way to repair is often with a cement

Friday, July 4th, 2008


The best way to repair is often with a cement. Do the edges of the broken pieces fit together closely? If so, a good two-part epoxy cement is best. I recommend an epoxy which cures to a clear color, not amber like most. The brand name is Huges 330 Epoxy. It is made for gemstone material cementing. A craft shop should have this cement or may order it for you. If not, try an exposy cement from a craft shop or hardware store but do not get the quick setting kind. The best will harden in about 2 hours. Quick set cements cure in 5 minutes and this is too little time to make a good joint of the broken ends.

Freshwater pearls not only have different colors, shapes and sizes. They, too, differ in nacre, luster and surfaces. Their luster may not be that rich but they possess their own unique sheen. Luster refers to a pearl’s brilliance which is the real source of its beauty. The stronger the luster or the more it reflects light, the higher is the value of the pearl.

Luster refers to a pearl’s brilliance which is the real source of its beauty. The stronger the luster or the more it reflects light, the higher is the value of the pearl.

Freshwater pearls may either be natural or cultured. They are graded based on a set of criteria to show their quality. The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) is one prestigious organization involved in grading gems around the world and issues a certificate of authenticity as a guarantee to consumers that they are buying quality gems and jewelry.

Jewelry will forever excite just like it has in days gone by. Take the cave man adorned with ivory molars dangling from his neck or his mammoth tusk hanging from his waist. Then we have another fine example for finery the Indian chief sitting so brave attired in colored feathers and beads of every color of the rainbow running through his braided plaits.

It has taken millions of years for us to come to our senses and narrow down the amount of jewelry we wear. In saying that piercing of the body where you can end up looking like a voodoo doll is still very popular. What you have to remember is, to much of a good thing can spoil your image therefore taking the beauty away from your ornate piece. Bling diamond sparkling rings along side gold bulky sovereigns are not a match made in heaven.

Some folks are hooked on rhodium today

Friday, July 4th, 2008

 

Some folks are hooked on rhodium today, with the newly arisen popularity of white gold. The want absolutely no hint of yellow and rhodium solves that for them.

White gold alloys(the recipes of metal mixes for white gold)are more or less white in color. Some will look white from now on and others will show a slight yellowish tinge over time and exposure to various chemicals in the environment. Rhodium is plated to restore a very white color.

The plate of rhodium may last about a year, depending on the wearer of the jewelry. Rhodium will cover some discoloration in white gold but the gray heat discoloration is not well covered or disguised. Look closely at the ring when done and check for this discoloration at the same places. See if there is a shadow still there, even if not quite as visible. A discoloration from jewelry work torch heat should be buffed away before rhodium is applied for the best results.

Onyx gemstone is the birthstone for the month of February, while it is the mystical stone for December and a lucky charm for people under the Leo zodiac sign. Onyx is likewise the tenth wedding anniversary gemstone.

It is said that Black Onyx has the ability to change a wearer’s bad habits. This gemstone is also used as an important tool in helping increase the concentrating abilities of absent-minded people and in calming a chaotic and problematic life. In India, the onyx gemstone is believed to have the power to pacify the over-eagerness on love. It is likewise thought to help the wearer become very eloquent, and so most speakers wear the onyx during public speaking engagements. Likewise a lover wears it to be able to find the right amorous words and capture the heart of their new romantic interest. Onyx gemstone is said to help in the growth of hair, skin and fingernails.

Onyx is said to help in releasing negative emotions such as grief and sorrow. It is also used to terminate troublesome or unhappy partnerships and relationships. Onyx also guards the user against negative vibes. Onyx jewelry is worn in order to defend oneself against negativity. Black gemstones are said to have protective energies because black is known as the absence of light, and so it can be utilized to create the illusion of invisibility.

Finally, the onyx gemstone fortifies the wearer’s self-confidence and sense of responsibility. It strongly helps in sharpening the five senses and likewise encourages a healthy ego of self. For those who would love to own an onyx gemstone, the black onyx is quite inexpensive and therefore affordable. Yet the onyx lends the wearer the look of elegance and wealth.

Look for a makers mark

Friday, July 4th, 2008

Look for a makers mark on the items you have. To meet federal law, the karat stamp should be there along with the makers mark. The karat stamp alone with no makers mark is clue to dishonesty. The mark is required to hold the maker responsible for the karat stamp being true and accurate. A karat stamp does not have to be put on an item but if it is, the makers mark is required by law.

When I consider a question, the answer is straight up and honest based on information from the question. This one presents a dilemma of sorts! The markings are what should be there for 18k gold. The only thing suspect there is the double marks, including both 18k and 750. This is not a critical point but most Italian jewelry is only marked with one or the other mark.

Sure, some exceptions occur and when the bracelet was made “might” be a reason for both marks. European jewelry was marked with numerical stamps (i.e. 750) before those marks became accepted standards with consumers in the USA. Who knows the reason for both marks? Generally, the maker’s mark is (by law) next to the quality mark. Is there a maker’s mark or some indication besides “Italy” for a manufacturer? If not, then the bracelet is truly suspect.

The marks are right but the acid test showed green, the typical result of a gold-filled or plated article with a base metal like brass underneath. The green comes from reaction with acid and the copper element in the underlying metals. Gold items of 10k to 18k and higher simply do not show green. This is part of the dilemma. The double safeties also are a small problem, since costume jewelry generally does not have good quality clasps or double safeties.

Now, we have to question if the acid test was done correctly and on what part of the bracelet. It is possible that the bracelet is not gold and does have gold clasp parts, if attached with loops (jump rings) and not connected by soldering directly to the bracelet.

Where is the quality stamps located? Are the markings on the back only on the clasps parts or located somewhere else? An acid test done correctly will involve not only the clasp parts but some other area of the jewelry item. The item is rubbed on a slate stone hard enough to dig slightly into the jewelry and place both surface gold and deeper metal on the stone. Or, the acid is applied directly to the piece. Either way, the result will not be green for gold items.

Without the bracelet in hand, I simply cannot tell if it is really 18k gold. If not, then apparently enough trouble was taken by the manufacturer to make it look authentic and be sold falsely as 18k when it is not.

On some day, one of my friends carry a wide selection of  pearl jewelry, from pearl beads, cultured pearl strands, freshwater pearl neckalce, pearl bracelet, wholesale pearl ring, freshwater pearl earrings, other shaped pearls and cultured pearl pendant, freshwater pearl earrings to cheap sterling silver jewelry and full sets of pearl jewelry, expertly hand-crafted using only the fines pearls by pearl wholesale store to me. I am a jewelry lover, in my spara time I often find some single pearl necklace on the market and internet, especially on the internet, a various world, in there you can find whatever you want and find your interest on there..

Unique pearls can demand

Friday, July 4th, 2008


Unique pearls can demand for a higher amount of cash. Investing on these pieces can be worthwhile. Just be careful in choosing, be sure that the ones you’re purchasing are real because your fortunes can be brought to waste.

I know of no accurate way to test the chains with home made methods. An acid test is the best way to find out. A jeweler should do this for a very small charge.

If gold plated, not gold through and through, the plate will eventually wear away and the chains will tarnish in those areas. If a brass like metal is underneath, the color when shiny is close to gold and it might be hard to tell the difference until tarnishing happens. There are several ways I have seen suggested for home testing but I cannot recommend any as being reliable.

Acid tests are done by two methods. In one case, a bit of the item is rubbed onto a small slate “test stone”, rubbing hard enough to remove some metal from the surface of the item. Gold of a know karat is also rubbed on the stone. Acid is placed on the marks and observed. If the sample dissolves right away, it is not gold. If the sample remains, the color is compared to that of the acid effects on the known samples and from that an approximate karat value is assigned. The test is better at telling what is not gold than closely telling the karat of the gold.

The other method is to make a mark on the jewelry in a place that shows very little. The mark must go through the surface and a bit into the metal. Acid is applied. If not gold, the metal is generally a base metal containing copper and the acid will bubble with a green color. This is a sure giveaway the item is not gold through and through. If the item is gold, the test may leave a darkened, tarnished looking spot or a dull spot on the metal. This can be polished and brought back to a shiny surface.

The jeweler may be incorrect is saying the chains are too light in color and too shiny to be gold. Gold can be as shiny or dull as the factory wants to make it. Color depends on the karat of the gold, with some color variations in the same karat of gold depending on the actual recipe used to make the gold suitable for jewelry.

What the jeweler may be referring to is the “look” of the typical heavy chain, stamped 14k with no makers mark, gold plated and not solid gold. We see these ever so often. These chains have a faky look, shiny but not well finished. I have seen so many those fakes are fairly easy to spot but a test is really needed to be certain.

As for prices, I hesitate to quote a price based on weight only. Too many other factors play, such as quality of the item in the first place. Quality varies from very fine manufacture to really cheaply produced items, made to sell at lower prices.

Do take care in extreme

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

 

Do take care in extreme cases like going from a sauna to a dip in a frozen pond! That kind of temperature change could damage the stone. Everyday wear is safe.

I would not jump into a hot shower when coming in from the cold while wearing opals. Simply take the ring off and keep it out of the bath in the first place. This keeps the stone cleaner by avoiding very difficult to clean “soap scum” and the potentially dangerous sudden heat change.

Avoid abrasives. Abrasives are like sandpaper. Things which will scratch glass will scratch an opal. Take the ring off if you are going too wash dishes, working in the yard and when filling a sand box or applying makeup. Yes, makeup is abrasive. Most of the dark smudges folks get from wearing necklaces comes from makeup. The very fine particles in the make up are like microscopic sandpaper, rubbing away gold so fine that the gold looks black. That is the cause of most jewelry smudges, gold rubbed away by the finea “sandpaper” effect of make up.

Opal can be scratched by makeup. The scratches will be so fine you will not notice but will eventually take the shine off of the stone. Please put opals and any and all jewelry on after any make up, hair spray or other things ladies use are finished. Store the jewelry where it will not bounce into or rub against other jewelry. That is about as safe as you can get.

Most people love designer jewelry and would love to own some. However few people have enough money to buy any of this jewelry. There are ways to get the look of expensive designer without the expense. One option is by buying replica jewelry. This is designed to look like expensive jewelry however is much cheaper.

You do need to be careful when buying replica jewelry, however just as long as you buy from reputable places then replica jewelry will look exactly like the real thing. Few people will be able to tell the difference between this and the real thing, unless of course you tell them!

If you are looking to buy replica jewelry then there are some important stores that you should check out. It’s important to find stores that offer high quality pieces of jewelry which look like the real thing, and are also reasonably priced.

One such store is Overstock Jewelers. These supply a wide range of replica jewelry made from semi precious stones, pearls, cubic zirconium, silver and gold.

Aquamarine for March

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008


Aquamarine for March

This gemstone usually comes in a turquoise or blue color. The name came from the Latin aqua marina which translates to “water of the sea.”

Diamond for April

The name diamond is derived from the Greek term adamas which means invincible. This gemstone is the hardest precious metal known to man that only another diamond can scratch it.1lfv edsf78uysdz

Emerald comes in the color green or bluish green and is a highly prized gemstone. The name can be derived from the Greek word smaragdos and Latin word smaralda.

This is the only non-mineral birthstone on the list. Pearls are hard, circular objects produced by mollusks. The largest pearl found came from the Philippines in the year 1934 which was originally tagged as the Pearl of Allah but is now officially known as Pearl of Lao-Tzu.
Ear piercings are those pieces of jewelry that attach to the ear by way of a barb or thin piece of metal that is threaded through a small hole in the earlobe or other part of the ear. Ear piercing is one of the most widespread practices in the world. Ears were the first to be experimented on when man considered piercing. In some tribes, it was done because they thought that evil spirits entered the body through the ears and metals repulsed these spirits. Throughout history, we have instances of women, and even men, piercing their ears and adorning them with beautiful jewelry.

Though ear lobe piercing is most common, and it is the easiest to perform as the lobe is made up of soft tissue, there are other cartilaginous sites which can be pierced too. There are many types of piercing – vertical, industrial, helix, orbital and anti orbital. A helix piercing, for example, is a piercing along the outside rim of the ear. This piercing is slightly difficult to do, as this part of the ear is not as soft as the lobe. Industrial piercings join two holes with a barbell.

The risks involved are negligible if proper precautions are taken and the healing period is around six to eight weeks in an ear lobe piercing. Precautions like keeping the wound clean until it heals, not swimming, and keeping the telephones, headphones, reading glasses and hats that come into contact with your piercing clean are all important steps that can be taken to safeguard piercings.
The word ‘diamond’ is derived from an ancient Greek work meaning “impossible to tame.” Diamonds are one of the best-known forms of carbon. They have been used as gems from time immemorial and have a wide variety of industrial applications. The popularity of diamonds increased in the 19th century because of improved cutting and polishing techniques.

Once you found your favourite things would you excite? I would. So when I see some tin cup pearl necklace. I am very excited, especially pearl jewelry wholesale. There will be a lot of sterling silver jewelry, cultured pearl pendant, cultured pearl earings, cultured pearl ring, cultured pearl bracelet, pearl necklace, cultured pearl strands, cultured pearl beads … on showing.

The type of jewelry that teens wear

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008


The type of jewelry that teens wear is most of the time derived from what they see on TV and in the magazines. The emergence of the MTV culture is one of powerful factors that affect teen jewelry. Teens try to attain the kind of image that their celebrity idols have so they imitate the kind jewelries that these celebrities wear.

You’re also likely to see teens wearing a yin-yang brooch or ring, a necklace with the Star of David pendant, and a fish inspired bracelet. Wearing the symbols particular to a belief, however, does not necessarily mean that the wearer believes in the principles behind these symbols.

The teens of today are also into cultures like gothic and punk and their clothes, their hairstyle and, of course, the jewelry they wear reflect this trend. You will see teenagers with pierced ears, tongue, and nose. They also have belly rings, toe rings, and all other kinds of rings that are meant for anything but the fingers.

Jewelry: Not Exclusive to Female Teens

In the past and even today, male members of a certain tribe of group wear certain articles of jewelry. However, boys aged 12-16, who are not members of a particular tribe or community, are also wearing jewelry these days. Unlike adult men who have limitations when it comes to wearing jewelry, teen boys use almost any kind of jewelry. They even wear jewelry that are commonly worn by girls. Amazingly, teenage boys still make them work!

Jewelry for teenagers has become so popular that there are now specialty stores that sell them, both in the local malls and in the internet. Jewelry for teenagers are cheap, colorful, engaging, and appealing so it is no surprise that manufacturing jewelry for teens has become a full-fledged industry.
Akoya name means saltwater in Japanese language and for decades pearl industry has been extensively selling these most lustrous pearls to the consumers and even now it commands a very decent share when it comes selling and buying pearl jewelry among pearl jewelers and consumers. Akoya pearls are the classic cultured pearls of Japan. Akoya pearls luster is intense, their nacre is thick and colors brilliant. Undoubtedly, they carry higher values than freshwater pearls.

Although Japan is the originator of producing akoya pearls, so to say, as Kokochi Mikimoto of Japan had invented and patented the bead-nucleating technology of culturally growing these pearls in the seawater. Akoya pearls are primarily cultivated in the sea salt waters off the coastal areas of Japan and China but in recent years China is producing in large quantity and their quality is exceeding remarkable. With new improved modern techniques of culturing pearls, it has become possible to harvest better quality akoya pearls. It takes about 3-5 years to grow nice quality akoya pearls and pearl farms in China and Japan constantly monitor its growth during this period in order to get good harvest as well as good quality akoya pearls.

Love of Jewelry: If the Price is Right

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008


Love of Jewelry: If the Price is Right

It is sad to note that jewelry as a form of art is actually taken for granted. The art in a jewelry piece is less noticed and less praised compared to the art in paintings and sculpture.

Sure, people will gaze in wonder at a four-carat diamond on an engagement ring. Certainly, people will notice if you wear a diamond tennis bracelet to your prom party. However, the appreciation for jewelry is almost always confined to the cost of the item and the prestige that goes with owning such an obviously expensive piece. The appreciation lies, therefore, not on the work and the artistry that goes into the production of the jewelry piece. It lies more on its weight, its size, and its prize tag.

This single-minded focus on the cost of jewelry as well as the neglect of the jewelry’s form, design and details has taken away the appreciation for jewelry as a true form of art. Jewelry has regressed to nothing but an expensive and brazen wealth exhibit.

This disconnection from the true and pure meaning of jewelry can be attributed to the materialistic mindset that’s prevalent today. Jewelry is viewed as a status symbol or an investment, thus the price of the jewelry is given more weight. Unless people learn to appreciate and give value to the artistry behind the design of the jewelry, true appreciation of the art of jewelry making may be slow to come by.
There’s a profound truth to the saying, “It’s not the cost of the gift, but the thought behind it.” Gifts of jewelry create precious memories, yet all too often the person giving the gift feels as though he must spend more than he can afford in order to demonstrate his feelings to the woman he loves. Unfortunately, the jewelry industry often reinforces this belief, going so far as to offer guidelines about what a man should spend on an engagement ring, for example. (The “guideline” is two months’ salary.)

For most men, it’s not realistic to go deeply into debt in order to buy jewelry. Indeed, extravagant jewelry often is locked in a vault or a safe, rather than being worn and enjoyed by the recipient. There are many affordable rings available that can express feelings of love and appreciation, and which will be worn with pride by the recipient. Discount rings can be unique and elegant, with a style that mimics the most costly designer jewelry. In contrast to guidelines provided by the jewelry industry, you can buy affordable rings that your recipient will treasure.

When selecting a ring, think about the setting. A 10k gold ring is as beautiful as a 14k gold ring, but is a more affordable purchase.

Do you often go shopping on line? There are a lot of interesting things on there. One of the most popular sections at for any occasion is pearl section. Here, you’ll find hundreds of Tiffany-inspired choices of wholesale pearl bracelet, pearl necklace, cheap pearl strands, pearl beads, cultured pearl ring, multi-strand necklace, cheap pearl earing, tin cup necklace , cultured pearl pendant, single strand necklaces You can’t go wrong when you choose any of these exquisitely designed masterpieces for yourself or your friends. The beauty speaks volumes about your good taste in jewelry design.I would like to share good things with you. Let go to wholesale pearl jewelry together.

If the rain was pure

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008


If the rain was pure, the pearl was lustrous. If it dull, then it didn’t rain. If it’s merely cloudy then the color of the Tahitian pearl is spoiled. Lighting and thunder were also factors in the cultivation of the Tahitian Pearl. Lighting stunts the growth while thunder can cause the shellfish to miscarry and produce hollow husks instead of precious pearls.
Pearls grown inside the mussel or oyster do have a gritty feel to the tooth.

Still, some are hard to detect without very thorough testing sometimes using solvents and acids which attack the real pearl nacre but not the plastic fakes and visa versa.

Other than that, a look at the drilled holes in the beads will help. Since the pearl is formed naturally without a hole, the hole must be drilled. The surface of the pearl at the drill hole will not “sink in” or “rise up” as is seen in many fakes that are formed and coated with the holes already made to the core. In the real pearl, the nacre will be smooth with the drill hole and might even be chipped a bit.

Some folks recommend having a dentist do an x-ray to see what is inside. Still, unless a person is very, very familiar with reading the images the results are very iffy. A core will look like a core whether in a fake or a cultured pearl. A core will not be present to any large extent in a pearl formed freely in the ocean but those pearls just are not around or to be had except in very small sizes.

Using a good loupe (hand held magnifier) of 10 powers is likely the best home test. Of course, try the teeth first! Then look at the drill holes and the surface compared to a good cultured pearl.
Poets from the Orient believe that every sixteenth day of the Nisan month each year, the pearl oysters rise up above the sea. Their shells open up in order to get raindrops falling from the skies above.
Although Japan has been renowned for its pearl production till now, the trend is slowly changing with China emerging as the new contender for accounting of the largest production of Akoya pearls. However, majority of the Akoya pearls produced by china are still imported to Japan for processing purposes.
All things that glitter draw the eye, and jewelry tops this list. The love of jewelry pieces knows no social class or social boundary. There are the faux pieces of jewelry worn by children, the belly rings of teenagers, the class rings of college graduates, the engagement ring of newly engaged couples, the wedding ring of married couples, the heirloom jewels from the grandparents. Everyone is touched by the power and lure of this seemingly magical artwork. However, do people really appreciate jewelry as a work of art, or do people just regard jewelry pieces as embellishments?
