There have been traces of gemstone usage from early human history with mention of gemstones in the holy Bible also. The emperors and royals of ancient ages had special affiliation to colored gemstones. Ancient cultures across the world sanctified colored gemstones and associated different beliefs and mysticism to gemstones. Recently colored gemstones have made a dramatic comeback with colored gemstones like ruby, emerald, sapphire, aquamarine, tanzanite, amethyst and many more dominating the runways, fashion circles, red carpet and of course our jewelry boxes. Here are a few reasons why colored gemstones score over diamonds.
The most defining characteristic that makes colored gems score over diamonds is the cost. In the cost of one diamond ring one can have around 7-8 gemstone rings with good quality gemstones in at least 6×4 sizes. So one can own a lot of gemstone jewelry in place of counted pieces of diamond jewelry. Bigger jewelry like bracelets makes much more sense in gemstones than in diamonds for the obvious cost benefit.
Jewelry in colored gemstones has more fun and character. With the wide variety of colors and hues available, there are a whole lot of designs to choose from. Colored gemstones can be perfect accessories for all occasions from casual wear to sophisticated party wear to every day office wear. Colored gemstones can be combined in different colors to compliment multi-colored dresses.
Gemstones have a wide range of colors, styles and costs you could choose from to suit your preference. Even if you are looking for a gemstone of a particular kind, you still have a sea of choices in terms of color and quality available. You could also look for specialty gemstones like the star gems, cats eye species etc. With colored gemstones you can be never run out of options when ever you feel like dressing up differently.
Gemstones have been associated to the occult since ancient times. In olden days gemstones were used as talismans to ward off evil and attract good luck. There is a different belief associated to each gem like sapphire is associated to purity in love; aquamarine is associated to happy marriage, emerald to verdure, amethyst to disciplined habits and so on. Gemstones are also believed to provide healing power.
Diamond rings are the favorite ornaments with both men and women. Men’s diamond rings are available in several precious metals or in a combination of metals and diamonds. Men’s diamond rings also come in combination with other precious stones as well. However, those men’s diamond rings which are made in platinum or white gold are regarded as contemporary and they could be the best choice for the most important event of your life.
Still better, men’s diamond rings are available in trendy designs with single or multiple diamonds and available in many varieties including the 1 carat diamond rings, or the eternity diamond rings or the pear diamond rings whose shape is loved by many men.
While those diamond rings that symbolize eternal beauty and sparkle are regarded as eternity diamond rings, they can be just the unique rings and complement your unique event. These eternity diamond rings indeed are considered as the best wedding rings as these are the symbols of eternal love that the duo will share for the rest of their lives. Eternity diamond rings can be made of single diamond or multiple diamonds again. Again, there are two types of eternity diamond rings and they are full eternity rings and half eternity rings. Full eternity rings have stones set around the shank and half eternity rings have stones set partially around the shank.
Of late most of the eternity diamond rings are coming as multi-stranded or plaited with other designs and themes. Most women are embracing the half eternity rings, as these are comfortable to wear while being less expensive. Eternity diamond rings are suitable for working women.
Pear diamond rings are a mixture of round brilliant and marquise cut diamonds. The shape of a pear diamond is round at one end and pointed at the other end just like a pear. Pear diamond rings are also known as teardrop diamond rings, because of their similarity in shape to that of a teardrop. Pear diamond rings elongate the fingers of the wearer and make the fingers look long.
Choosing quality diamond rings is important and the quality diamond rings are identified in terms of cut of the diamond and the metal used to make the ring. Metals used to created diamond rings are silver, platinum, gold or white gold. The beauty of the diamond depends on its clarity, color and cut. Most men love to have expensive quality diamond rings for engagement or a wedding that symbolizes eternity of love.
