Diamond necklaces jewelry is one that will attract attention immediately. if you want to buy diamond necklaces for your loved ones, here are some tips that might help.

If she like to be the center of attention, she might want to use necklace with a diamond all around the neck, but if she is a simple person, she might want diamond necklaces that more simple, such as a necklace with a single diamond.  Also know the color she like, whether she prefer white gold or yellow gold, and also the color of the diamond

Learn the quality of the diamond
The quality of the diamond known as the four C’s (Clarity, Color, Carat and Cut). Clarity shows the diamond’s purity.  Color indicates the colors of the diamond. Cut shows how the diamond is cut. Carat is the weight of the diamond. Learn these things before deciding to buy diamond necklaces.

Know your budget
When buying a diamond necklaces is too expensive for you, don’t worry, you don’t have to buy a diamond necklaces with a real diamond. There are 2 types of diamond imitation. Synthetic diamond is a diamond that created through the process of simulates the diamond formation by using the latest technology. And the second is imitation diamond made from non-diamond material. With the rapid advances in technology, at this time many people doesn’t know which one the real and which one the fake, but of course the fake one is cheaper than the original one.

Conclusion
Whether you want to buy the real or the fake is all up to you. But you must remember, buying a diamond necklaces (especially the real one) is an investment. If you want to buy diamond necklaces with a real diamond, I suggest you to buy in a store that you can trust, or buy certified diamond for the peace of mind, there’s a lot internet store that sell certified diamond.

In this article I will give you 7 tips to buy diamonds jewelry online. Before that, I tell you two main reasons why you should buy diamonds jewelry through the internet. First, it’s because the price is lower. This can happen because internet store have lower operation cost than regular store. And second, it’s really saving time and you have unlimited selection of diamonds jewelry.

Here is a To-Do list if you want to buy diamonds jewelry online:

1. Learn about the diamond 4Cs (Cut, Color, Clarity, and carat). By learning this, you can calculate the diamonds price, so you’ll know is it worth to buy or not. Also it can help you to avoid scam.

2. Take your times. If you find diamonds jewelry that you like, try to find similar diamonds jewelry in another websites. Sometimes you can get with a cheaper price.

3. Bookmarks your page / add to favorites. With a lot of similar websites names in internet, bookmark the page is one of important thing to do. You can search another sites without worrying you will forget website address that include in your consideration.

4. Read and understand the online stores policies. Do they provide money back guarantee or exchange your diamonds jewelry if something’s wrong, etc

5. Try to make a phone call to their customer service if you can. If somebody picks up the phone, at least you know they are serious running their business. You also can play a role to be a little bit fussy, and see how they handle you (you can practice your act for free :-) ). Also, do they provide their office address?

6. Certified Diamonds. If you want to buy expensive diamonds jewelry, I highly recommend you to buy diamonds that certified by reputable grading laboratory such as GIA or EGL. With current technology, you won’t know that the diamond is real or fake just by looking it with naked eyes.

7. Knowing the age of websites. If you know the age of websites, you will know how long they running their business thru the internet. Longer means better. How to do: go to alexa.com >> type the website names that you want know the age >> read their “online since” data, that is their websites ages.

That’s all the tips I know. If you want to find the diamonds jewelry that you really-really like, internet is your best shot.

14k Gold Ring

14K Gold Ring Simple Lesson

By: Ted Crist

14K White Gold Ring

14K White Gold Ring

If you don’t know what the meaning of 14K gold ring is or you confuse which ring you should choose, 14K gold ring or 18K gold ring, then you have to read this article.

How much gold contain in 14K gold ring?

To know how much gold contain in 14K (or 14kt or 14ct or 585) gold ring, you can use math… No No No don’t run away, it’s simple, I promise! Here is the formula:

Pure gold or 100% gold is 24 carat (24K). 14K gold is a mixture of 14 parts of gold and 10 parts of other materials /alloys by weight (14+10=24). If we convert it to percentage:

14K gold ring = (14K/24K) x 100% = 58,333333333333333…..ZZZZzzzz % Gold or 58,5 % Gold for short (the rest 41,5 % is other materials)

While 18K gold ring = (18K/24K) x 100% = 75 % Gold (the rest 25 % is other materials)

And 9K gold ring = … (it’s your home work :-) )

So if you find ring or jewelry with 585 mark, it’s mean that ring contain 58,5% of gold.

Why must be mixed with other materials?

It’s because gold is soft material. I Strongly not recommend you to buy 24K gold ring for your wedding or engagement ring. In order to make the gold ring is possible to wear everyday with constant wear and tear, it must be mixed with other materials or metal that is harder than gold. That means 14K gold ring is slightly harder than 18K gold ring, because the percentage of harder material (i.e. other materials) that 14K gold ring contain is bigger than 18K gold ring.

What is the different of yellow gold, white gold and rose gold?

The difference is the material that used to mix with gold. This material will determine the final color of gold ring. But if we talk about gold contain, whether 14K yellow gold ring or 14K white gold ring or 14K rose gold ring will contain same amount of gold, which is 58,5 % of gold.

Now you already know that 14K gold ring is harder than 18K gold ring, so if you are an active person, I suggest you to buy 14K gold ring, because it’s harder and more scratch resistance.

P.S (read from right to left; if you don’t have much time it’s not a must to read it :-) )
