Diamond is Forever and EternityDiamond is perceived as the most precious of all precious stones and is peerless. It is a woman’s best friend and a symbol of love. It shines and glitters and symbolizes purity and strength.In ancient times, a diamond was considered to be a sign of magic, sanctity, healing, energy, happiness, beauty, and longevity when used, but the saying goes that a diamond is poison when consumed. It was known for its goodness and power to remove all evil. In today’s world, a diamond is regarded as a status symbol, an ornament of beauty worn by the rich and depicts a luxurious lifestyle.

Beauty has always been an ideal that people have strived to attain. Whether moral or physical, beauty revealed itself as a goal, but also as a means to improve one’s life from several points of view. Consequently, jewellery proved to be an excellent tool for achieving that ideal. Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings and so many others, became in time a symbol of wealth, of elegance, of status, of belonging to a certain social group. People are inclined to associate jewellery with precious metals or stones. This tendency is partially justified, as the common techniques of producing jewellery involves using such material, or replace it with another that imitates the genuine one. Nevertheless, one thing we should know is that the material of jewellery is carved in does not give its entire
The word "diamond" is derived from the Greek "adamas", meaning indomitable. In the Middle Ages the diamond was thought to be a protection against the plague, Queen Elizabeth I wore one in her bosom to protect against infection. Napoleon, another believer in its mystic powers, had the famous Regent diamond in in the hilt of the sword he carried at his coronation. The diamond has the legendary power of protecting the wearer form evil, especially when worn on the left side. This belief may well have added to the choice of a diamond for an engagement ring. Continuing the marital theme there is a superstition that a gift of a diamond "quickens the affection and restores love between husband and wife".From statements in an old Indian manuscript of the first century B.C. it is thought that the di

According to mythology the Amethyst inspires a love of fairness, a sense of duty and a devotion to high ideals. It was therefore chosen to be used in some of the principal ecclesiastical rings and even today is worn by Bishops. The Amethyst was also a stone of English royalty.

Matching earrings, necklaces, rings and bracelets will look far too overdone. Choose only two of the wedding / prom accessories. If you are wearing a heavily detailed dress then only choose one piece and make sure that it is a plain piece.Choose a necklace according to your wedding / prom dressV-neck or sweat-heart dress – a strand of beads or pearls is best for these necklines.The necklace should fall about half-way between the base of the neck and the point of the V or heart.Strapless dress – a strapless dress looks lovely with a choker. If wearing a long necklace, make sure that it is short and does not meet the dress fabric.Oval face – avoid tiaras with a peak at the top as this will make your face look even longer. A lower tiara, headband or back piece will be most flattering.Hi

"Green gold" jewellery is a niche in a fast-growing wider market for ethical goods, ranging from day-to-day foodstuffs like tea, coffee and chocolate to designer fashions and travel.Analysts say global sales of ethical gold jewellery are probably less than one per cent of the total $56 billion gold jewellery market based on figures from London-based consultancy GFMS – and the Fairtrade label is a year or so away.Although the ethical product is priced at a premium and gold is at record highs, the market has been ballooning. Among a plethora of online offers are companies including one called greenKarat that argues industrial mining methods damage the land and endanger ecosystems, so recycled gold would be better for society.Source / Read more Ethical jewellery good as gold

Teenage is that beautiful stage of life, when people want to explore with everything. And jewellery is one of those essentials that every teenager – both boys and girls – want to experiment with. And don't be shocked if your teenage kid returns with spike hairstyle, horn jewellery, skull pendants and finger rings with mystic symbols of the Gothic era. This is the age when they are heavily influenced with what their peers suggest or wear. So funky trendy and piquant jewellery is what you can expect them to come dressed up in. However, you should not loose patience. With time and a little nudging, you can change her style of jewellery over time.

Women simply adore jewellery ; and men simply love adorning them with the same! But, none of us actually care to find out where it all started. Its history is as interesting as jewel itself.They have been in use for almost as long as the human civilisation has been in existence. Cro-Magnons, the ancestors of homo sapiens, are said to be the first users of jewellery. Back then, crude necklaces and bracelets made of bone or teeth were used by both men and women as pieces of decoration. Some people used tusks, pearls and even shells for the same.Copper jewellery was first seen about 7,000 years ago. Ancient Egypt is regarded as the pioneer in jewel making, where this art form started about 5,000 years ago. It soon began to symbolise monetary power and religious power in the Egyptian communit
Andalusite is a mineral of various colours. When green or reddish-green it is used as a gem stone. It possesses a dichroism similar to alexandrite, though andalusite is distinguishable from alexandrite as the former's green light is unaffected by artificial light.The name andalusite is derived from Andalucia, Spain, where it was originally discovered.

An amulet is any object - and often an item of jewellery or a gem stone - believed to possess magical or supernatural qualities that bestow good luck upon the wearer, or ward away evil or illness.Historically, amulets have played a part in Ancient Chinese culture in the form of jade amulets, notably during the Shang-Yin Dynasty (c. 1766-1122 BC) . Such amulets often depicted animals.The ancient Egyptians incorporated deities into their amulets, such as the ibis-headed Thoth.After the Buddha's death (c. 485 BC), Buddhist amulets were worn, often fashioned from conch shells. The Romans wore amulets in finger rings.Today amulets are still worn, though magical or supernatural significance may be less relevant and the amulets supposed powers exist in name only, e.g., charm bracelets.

The American brilliant cut is a variation on the brilliant cut of a diamond. In the American brilliant cut, the width of the table is reduced to one third of the stone. The height of the crown is circa two-thirds of the pavilion.In contrast to the brilliant cut, eight small facets are added to the crown giving a grand total of 40 facets on the crown.The mathematician Marcel Tolkowsky theorised that the American brilliant cut is the ideal cut to maximise brilliance at the expense of lost weight.

Ambroid is a composite of fragments of real amber. It is a reconstructed stone whereby small pieces of amber are fused together under pressure to make a new amber stone that resembles natural amber.It is denser than natural amber and usually contains bubbles in the fusion lines.
