What is Silver?
Sterling silver is 92.5% silver and is sometimes referred to as pure silver. Sterling silver will tarnish over time but with care and regular cleaning can be restored to its good as new sparkling condition. The remaining 7.5% is usually copper but can be other metal and is used to give this precious metal strength and durability.Generally, the higher the silver content the brighter or whiter the metal but beware of antiquing effects that can make a piece of sterling silver jewellery or decorative silverware look dark. Silver which is 99.9% silver is too soft to be practical for most day to day uses. Do not use tissue or anything other than a jewellery cleaning cloth to polish your jewellery as unseen tiny hard fibers will scratch the surface.
Diamonds are Traditional
Diamonds are traditional. Obviously it is sought after for their beauty and elegance. The sparkle of a diamond on her finger is what many women dream of, but it is not the only choice. If you are about to get married and begin a whole new phase in your lives then we wish you everything that you would wish for yourselves. Choices of metal are varied from the traditional gold, through white gold and platinum to modern contemporary materials such as titanium.The main deciding factor in the budget will be what type of stone or stones to purchase. If a genuine bridal diamond ring is beyond your budget then I wholeheartedly suggest you take a look at the CZ bridal rings. The bridal diamond ring may not have diamonds on it but a so called fake diamond. If you are about to get married and begin a whole new phase in your lives then we wish you everything that you would wish for yourselves. Mixed bands of white and yellow gold are popular because they will be easier to match with other items of jewellery that a woman may wear.
How to care Gemstone?
To remove any detergent, rinse the stone in the same temperature water as the soaking solution. This type of stone can be strung on silk or nylon thread, the silk being a better choice because it fails to accumulate as much dirt as nylon. For diamonds, sapphires, and rubies, bring an equal mixture of household cleaner and water to a boil.Opals contain almost one-third water and are therefore particularly vulnerable to even moderate temperature changes. Remove from heat and allow the gemstones to soak in the solution until it cools. Thermal shock happens when a stone is instantly transported from one extreme temperature to another. They are all nature's gifts to us. There are more than 40 popular gem varieties and many rarer collector gemstones.
