Few things are to be taken into consideration while choosing pearl jewellery. They are as follows:
Shape: Mostly round shaped pearl is preferred though it is a bit expensive.
Size: There are four species of pearl. They are Tahitian, South sea, Akoya and freshwater. Freshwater pearls have changed since decades due to the change of mollusk species. They are available in a wide array of shapes and colours making them as expensive as salt water pearl which are costlier because of their sizes. South sea pearls are the largest ranging from 10-20 mm. Tahitians also in bigger in size but lesser than south sea pearls.
Colour: Pearl jewellery comes in two colours- light and dark. Light coloured pearls are found in white, gold, pinkish, cream or off-white shades. Pinkish pearl is pretty popular to those who like to try something different. Black pearls are known as dark coloured pearl, these are valuable than the light coloured ones. Black pearls are cultured and not found naturally.
Luster: Luster or sheen is also to be considered. The light reflection on its surface is to be considered for determining how much it is polished.
If you are looking to gift someone with jewellery, pearl jewellery is one the best options. Pearl pendants, necklace, pearl bracelets, earrings are various alternatives. Pearl- gold is a good combo to make a style statement. Pearl jewellery goes equally well with both formal and casual attire.
Apart from the stones and crystals used for jewellery making silver is another popular metal used in jewellery making. Use of silver jewellery is observed since ancient times when the Egyptians started importing this metal from Afghanistan. It is much cheaper as compared to gold.
Modern generation is always in want of unique items. Therefore silver is an obvious choice of them. Silver jewellery comes in various attractive designs. There are different types of silver finishing available like to bring different effects, i.e. bright, naturally tarnished, controlled oxidization and vermeil. Sterling silver gets dull and it is required to polish to keep it bright. It tends to tarnish because of the presence of 7.5% copper alloy. Sterling silver is very popular among women and it is must for all accessory savvy women.
Rhodium plated silver gives the jewellery a different look and it also resist from darkening but it is a more expensive.
Silver jewellery studded with stones like ruby, emerald, turquoise, opal, crystals and others are found in earrings, necklaces, bangles, rings, anklets. Its exposure to air oxidizes the metal thereby darkening it. Maintenance of this metal is quite simple. You can rub it with a cotton cloth or put the metal in a jar with baking soda and boiling water and leave it for 15 mins. The dullness is removed and the metal gets its lost brightness.
