When you think of Omega and sports generally you would picture the timers placed around the track at the Olympic games, but in fact Omega delve so much deeper in the world of sport and the Olympics that when you buy Omega watches, you are buying precision, reliability and accuracy that is endorsed by the sports world and its organizations, as well as the many well known sports personalities that have been invited into the Omega family. The respect that these organizations and people give to Omega is a mutual relationship due to the dedication from Omega to sport being identical to the dedication given to watch making.

Omega Watches connected with FINA

Omega watches, timings and qualities are spread throughout sport in to Golf, Athletics and Swimming among others. Over the years the relationship that has formed with FINA (Federation International de Natation) is so strong that their working relationship was extended in 2006. Another mark of dedication is the effort that Omega show in covering all of the FINA disciplines, with 13 technicians and 6 tons of equipment mobilized for their events. Omega has also proved their dedication to golf, with the design, making and naming of the 'Double Eagle' watch found in the Speedmaster collection. This is the same dedication and relationship qualities that will be provided to you when you opt to buy your watch with Omega, a benefit to be cherished, and not pushed aside cheaply.

Omega Watches and Swimming Gold Medalists

Sport has enabled Omega to build an amazing reputation for accuracy and precision, this is something has as gone from strength to strength since Omega started out in Olympic Games timekeeping in 1932, but a fine example is when Anthony Nestt took the gold medal in the Olympic Games in Seoul, 1988, after finishing one hundredth of a second ahead of Matt Blondi in the 100m butterfly. This is just one fine example of Omegas perfection, but there are many more examples similar in a variety of disciplines throughout the sports world.

Omega Watches at the Beijing Olympics

The Beijing Olympics and Paralympics provided Omega with an exceptional challenge which was dealt with like no other sports timekeeper, responsible for time keeping and data handling for 28 different sports at a total of 38 venues, this was done, as expected by Omega, with perfection and professionalism, something for you to experience with Omega when buying your watch.

These facts that display Omegas fine qualities are all so well endorsed that it would be a mistake not to buy your watch with Omega if you are looking for anything from a simple timekeeping piece, through to a sophisticated, elegant and extremely modern work of art to compliment your style and taste.

It used to be that pearls were very rare and possessing pearl jewelry one usually meant that you were royalty or very, very rich. That's just not the case anymore. Now, mankind has figured out how to produce pearls naturally on Pearl farms. Pearl farms raise baby oysters, which are artificially bred in a hatchery of sorts, or naturally, in their usual environment. Oysters are suspended in a water cage, which contains the perfect balance of water and food, kept at around 75 degrees. The baby oyster is grown in these ideal conditions until it reaches 2-3 years of age...and then it gets put to work!

Depending upon the type of oyster and pearl made- either freshwater pearls or salt-water pearls, a piece or particle of a foreign material (usually a small piece of shell) is inserted into the oyster. The oyster farmer makes a small, half-inch incision into the oyster and inserts the prepared particle into it. It then takes the oyster at least six weeks to recuperate from the shock! The pearl starts to form in the next 6-10 days.

Once the particle has been inserted into the oyster, it starts to secrete a substance called nacre, which surrounds the particle in layers and eventually forms a pearl. The process of adding layer after layer to make a pearl takes 2-4 years! After investing so much time into the production of one tiny pearl, the farmer harvest the pearls and sends them off to be made into jewelry.

Most people may think that buying discount diamond rings means low quality diamonds and that are not true. Though diamonds come in all grade quality yet within each grade there is wide range of price variations and to get the best possible quality at discount prices is the key.

Buying diamond jewelry at cheap prices not necessarily compromising on quality. Each jeweler has its own sources to procure at prices they guess is the best for them to pay for the type of diamonds and accordingly resell them to their customers keeping small to high margins. Large jewelers may have advantage to buy in large quantity at the price that is very fair and right but their overhead operating costs may well be high to offset the price advantage. Small jewelers on the other hand in order to maintain loyalty and integrity may often offer diamond rings at much competitive prices. Shopping and comparing for all kind of quality and prices is helpful.

The diamonds are set in order of color within an angled slot so that one can observe the color of these diamonds by looking through the body of the diamonds. When purchasing discount diamond rings, one should always look at the clarity of diamonds set in any ring. All jewelers keep the magnifying loupe to examine the clarity of diamonds and be sure to view the inclusions under the loupe or preferably in the microscope to evaluate.

All diamonds have some sort of inclusions in them. Should a diamond for example be clarity graded as SI-2 have the jeweler explain to you precisely why it is SI-2. One should try to understand and know the nature, extent and location of the inclusions present in the diamond.

Instead paying high prices for rings just because one is buying from high-end jewelers is not a good option and one should always compare the quality and prices when purchasing discount diamond rings. All diamond jewelry items come with certificate of Authenticity/Appraisal report now.

Charm bracelet jewelry comes in all possible shapes and varieties. It lends your hand an elegant old-world look. You can choose charm bracelets to go with any dress in you wardrobe and these even look great on office wear.

Most wearers associate charms with special events in their lives or with beliefs about the good luck that a particular charm brought them. Charm bracelets can be brought as they are from stores or the wearer could add charms on to her bracelet with trinkets she finds particularly lucky. The choice depends on you entirely. If you plan to buy a charm bracelet, here's how to go about it.

First you will have to decide on a price range. Think of an approximate budget that you have in mind. The charm bracelets in each price category vary considerably and you will have to pick the one that suits your pocket the best.

In lower price ranges you are likely to find bracelets made of sterling silver with a single charm. If you prefer gold you could get 10 carat gold bracelets with a few more charms on them. Another category you can check out is the starter bracelet. This one helps you hook charms on to the bracelet as you go along.

Costlier charm bracelet jewelry has more charms on it. The designs are also more detailed. You may choose stone studded ones, if they suit your taste and budget. Sterling silver bracelets in this category are also very pretty.

Most bracelets in higher price ranges cannot have more charms attached to them. Top of the line bracelets get costlier as they come studded with real diamonds or pearls. The costlier ones also tend to have heavier chains. In the costliest price band come the platinum charm bracelets.

Here the designs are extremely intricate and tend to have larger stones on the bracelet. Most of them also have heavy gold chains.

(Casio)Ladies Analogue Watch (LQ-139AMV-1LWCF)




When we talk of eternity rings, we are mostly referring to the rings that are exchanged by people who are close and that want a sign to signify their friendship. These are rings that have sentimental value to the two people that are exchanging them. This is not new. Rings have been part of human interaction for as long as we can remember. They can be made of anything from fine gold, to diamond, to steel and also other precious stones. There is really no limit to the material that can be used to create an eternity ring because its significance is all that matters. There is also a general consensus that the deeper the relationship, the more people seem to invest in the ring although there are obvious exceptions to this rule. There are different occasions in which eternity rings are exchanged and we shall now examine them.

The most sentimental of these occasions is a wedding. There is perhaps no other time that rings mean something more than at a wedding ceremony. During a wedding, expensive rings are exchanged. It has been mostly the custom of ring exchanges to have the man give a ring to a woman that he loves but when it comes to a wedding both the man and the woman exchange rings. In a wedding arrangement, the man provides the ring to the woman and the woman's family buys the ring for the groom. This is an acceptable way of exchanging eternity rings.

Another occasion when eternity rings are exchanged is during an engagement. This is the time that precedes a wedding. When a man and a woman fall in love, the next step if they have made up their minds to get married is to become engaged. This is an occasion where the two commit to each other and start working toward a wedding. During this occasion which is usually very memorable, the man "proposes" to the woman usually in a gesture where he kneels down and offers a ring to the woman of his love. This ring is usually expensive although as we said, the intentions are what matters.

These are perhaps the two most common times to exchange eternity rings. But these by no means the only ones. Eternity rings are exchanges when two people commit to a lifelong friendship especially when that friendship is threatened with separation. This separation is usually distance. For instance, people exchange eternity rings when they are leaving high school and going off to different colleges. Girls are more prone to do this than boys and more friendship eternity rings are bought and exchanged by girls than by boys.

The best place to shop for eternity rings is online. This is because there are literally hundreds of types of rings and at equally varied prices. Different jewelers sell rings at different prices and the only way to shop for the best prices is to comb through the different websites that sell eternity rings.

Theodore provides information about eternity rings and recommends the best types of eternity rings for all occasions as the best option for buying.

When it comes to buying designer diamond jewelry, then there are many options open for you. But like any thing else there are certain designers, whose designed diamond jewelries are more worthwhile than others. It is their designs, which we are going to discuss further in more details.

Best Options In Designer Diamond Jewelry

Tiffany is the first name that comes in mind when we think about buying designer diamond jewelry. Based in United States, Tiffany is a Jewelry and Silverware company. Two friends - Charles Lewis Tiffany and John B. Young, formed this company in the year of 1837 in New York City, New York.

The goodwill is this company is because of their good quality and elegant designer diamond jewelry, of which they offer quite lot collections. Jewelries made by Tiffany are the first choice of many celebrities, and the company's name is mentioned a lot in television shows and films.

In this field, Kay Jewelers is another company whose name is very famous for designing finely crafted diamond jewelry. It is really significant that for decades, they have sustained the position as one of the leading brands in the United States. They are a division of Sterling Jewelry Inc., and together with are Signet Group, their London based parent company. They are known as the largest retail jewelry in the whole world. Another reason why they are so appreciated, is their fully commitment for providing a superior shopping experience, both in their stores spread worldwide and also online.

Things You Should Keep In Mind While Buying Diamond Jewelry

Not considering the designer's tag or the company from where you are interested to buy your diamond jewelry, there are a few things that you should take into consideration before getting into the purchase procedure. When you are in a jewelry showroom for buying designer diamond jewelry, you would feel as if you are in between a cluster of glittering stars. At this time, it is really very difficult to find the right one out of so many. In such condition, the best way to choose is by comparing in between the quality, price and service provided by different companies.

You should also check a company very well before buying anything from them, and this means asking about the company's refund and return policy. Checking for the hallmark of the company on all the metal jewelry is very important as it specifies the genuineness of the jewelry. Also make sure that the jeweler writes all the important details of the jewelry such as gem's weight or the gem's carat on the sales receipt.

When you are confused about the new jewelry stores around you and really bored of the kind of designs your familiar companies manufacture, then it will be a good idea to go through organizations such as the Better Business Bureau. They will provide you the all the important details about the company, such as its reputation in the market, history and the type of customers usually visit them.

If being a Dad is the high point of his life, why not give him a chance to flaunt his status with a handsome "DAD" ring? When choosing the perfect Dad ring, there are 3 main points to consider:

1. Material: Father rings are available in gold, white gold, sterling silver, and a combination of 2 of the metals. Keep in mind that a 10k gold ring is stronger and withstands wear longer than 14k gold ring. A 10k gold ring, since it has less gold than a 14k gold ring, is also less expensive. Gold and white gold rings are generally higher-priced than sterling silver rings.

Most men will have a preference for the material that his ring is made of. If he wears other jewelry, what material is it made of? It is best to then order the ring out of the same metal.

2. Gemstones: Diamonds, black onyx, and pearl are the most common gemstones in men's rings. However, a unique twist is the Dad birthstone ring. When ordering a birthstone ring for Dad, you can either place the stones in the order of childrens birth, or choose a color combination that you like.

Gemstone choice is really just a matter of personal preference - which ring looks best to you?

3. Width: Width is the key factor in how comfortable the ring is to wear. How wide should the perfect ring be? Some men just naturally prefer a wider band. You also want to consider his hand shape. If he has long fingers, he can easily wear a wider ring. If he has shorter fingers, you may want to consider a narrow ring.

Choosing the perfect ring for Dad is easy if you pay attention to these 3 points!

When you are buying diamonds or gold you are confronted with the word carat or karat. Many people do not know what exactly it means.

So here is a compact overview and definition of carat and karat for you:

The spelling karat is used (abbreviation ct or kt) in the United States and Canada as a measure of the purity of gold alloys, while the spelling carat is used to refer to the measure of mass for gemstones.

For Stones:
The carat is a unit of mass used for measuring gems and pearls. At now a carat is defined as exactly 200 mg (0.007,055 oz or 3.086 grains). At the Fourth General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1907 this definition was adopted in the U.S. and Canada , and soon afterwards in many countries around the world. It is universally used today. The carat is divisible into one hundred points of two milligrams each.

For Metals:

Platinum

  • 999 (also known as three nines fine)
  • 950 (the most common purity for platinum jewellery)
  • 900 (also known as one nine fine)
  • 850

Gold

  • 999.9
  • 999 (Fine gold equivalent to 24 carat, also known as three nines fine)
  • 995
  • 990 (equivalent to 23 carat; also known as two nines fine)
  • 916 (equivalent to 22 carat)
  • 833 (equivalent to 20 carat)
  • 750 (equivalent to 18 carat)
  • 625 (equivalent to 15 carat)
  • 585 (equivalent to 14 carat)
  • 417 (equivalent to 10 carat)
  • 375 (equivalent to 9 carat)
  • 333 (equivalent to 8 carat; minimum standard for gold in Germany after 1884)

Silver

  • 999 (Fine silver used in bullion bars, also known as three nines fine)
  • 980 (common standard used in Mexico ca.1930 - 1945)
  • 958 (equivalent to Britannia silver)
  • 950 (equivalent to "French 1st Standard")
  • 925 (equivalent to Sterling silver)
  • 900 (equivalent to "Coin silver" in the USA, also known as one nine fine)
  • 875 (could be found in former USSR)
  • 830 (common standard used in older Scandinavian silver)
  • 800 (minimum standard for silver in Germany after 1884; Egyptian silver)

The carat system is increasingly being complemented or superseded by the millesimal fineness system in which the purity of precious metals is denoted by parts per thousand of pure metal in the alloy.

The most common karats used for gold in bullion, jewellery making and by goldsmiths are:

  • 24 carat (millesimal fineness 999)
  • 22 carat (millesimal fineness 916)
  • 20 carat (millesimal fineness 833)
  • 18 carat (millesimal fineness 750)
  • 15 carat (millesimal fineness 625)
  • 14 carat (millesimal fineness 585)
  • 10 carat (millesimal fineness 417)
  • 9 carat (millesimal fineness 375)
  • 8 carat (millesimal fineness 333)

The next time you come across offers as those: 22k Gold Liberty Coins set in 14k Gold Diamond Earrings or 14K W Gold Rainbow Gem 1.5Ct Diamond Tennis Bracelet you know what it all means.

Enjoy,

Armani watches

Consumers who choose to buy Armani watches will always be happy with their purchase. This is because Armani watches are a great buy and Armani have many strong characteristics associated with their range of watches.

Armani Introduction

Armani watches are sold as part of the Emporio Armani brand, rather than Giorgio Armani itself. Giorgio Armani is an Italian fashion company set up in 1975 and is now one of the most highly sought after brands in the world. Armani has broken up into various segments to appeal to different market areas and bring in as much business as possible. Emporio Armani is one of these segments and it specialises in watches amongst other things.

Strong Characteristics

For any watch brand in the market place it is very important to be unique and distinctive as this separates one company from another. Consumers tend to prefer a particular style and/or type of watch over another and are likely to make a similar purchase to a previous one, providing there were no problems with their first purchase. It is therefore imperative that a watch brand has a few very strong characteristics when creating and designing their range of watches.

Armani's strong characteristics

Armani have many strong characteristics associated with their brand. One of their strongest characteristics is probably the fact that all their watches are so exquisite. Armani create many watches every year and every year the majority of these watches are snapped up by lots of happy consumers. The consumers are all happy because they have just bought a new Armani watch and are again, delighted with their exquisite watch.

Affordable Armani

Consumers are also happy with their new exquisite Armani watch because it is also affordable. There are so many watches on the market and some watches seem to want a value more than what the watch is actually worth. Armani on the other hand, offers consumers the chance to buy their watches at the right price, or affordable prices as others would suggest.

Armani Design

Every watch has its own design and its own unique style. Armani is no different to any other company as it strives to produce new, innovative and likeable watches. The result of doing just this is that its core customer base will always come back for more and with the hope that they will attract more customers with their new, exciting and individual watches all year round. This gives consumers confidence that Armani are the type of company that will continue to produce great watches, each with its own unique style and design, each with its own exquisiteness and each at an affordable price.

Armani Conclusion

Thousands of watches are manufactured every year as the demand for watches has continued to grow. There are many choices available for consumers but Armani is certainly one company that will continue to create exquisite watches.

As the year of 1778 neared its conclusion, thousands of natives on an island in what is now called Hawaii walked to the shore of that island. No doubt, a large number of those same people wore Hawaiian toe rings. Of course, they did not call them Hawaiian toe rings. When they spoke of their island they used the word "O'why'he".

Why did so many natives wearing Hawaiian toe rings walk to that one shore point during the late autumn of 1778? They came to the shore to welcome the arrival of a boat - a boat captained by James Cook. Cooks arrival on the island in 1778 was his second and also his last trip to Hawaii.

Cook wrote a good deal about the Hawaiian natives in his journal. After his first visit to Hawaii he penned these words: I never saw Indians so astonished at the entering of a ship beforetheir eyes were continually flying from object to object.

That entry indicates that Cook had his eyes focused on the faces of those who came out to great him. After reading that same entry, an historian could probably understand Cooks reason for making no mention of any toe rings worn by the residents of Owhyhe. The same historian might be more confused, after reading a follow-up entry.

Later in Cooks journal, one can find this statement: "The very instant I leaped ashore, they all fell flat on their faces and remained in that humble posture till I made signs to them to rise". In other words, there was a point during which Cook could not easily study the face of an island native. Did he not notice any of the Hawaiian toe rings at that point? Why did he not mention them in his journal?

Perhaps Cook was so overwhelmed by the flora of the islands that he forgot to mention the jewelry worn by some of the island natives. Cook wrote in his journal that the island flowers "sent forth the most fragrant smell I had anywhere met with". Overcome with that smell, Cook may well have drawn a blank, as he tried to recall all the details about foot jewelry of the island natives.

Besides, James Cook would never have made mention of something called Hawaiian toe rings, because he did not refer to the islands that he had discovered as Hawaii. He called them the Sandwich Islands.

Jewelers of today should be glad that Cooks name did not become the permanent name for those Islands. Advertisers of jewelry should be equally pleased with the name change. Jewelers of today might find the public less inclined to buy Sandwich Island toe rings than they are to purchase "Hawaiian toe rings".

If you're looking for a piece of truly masculine jewelry, you can't do much better than a titanium ring. Made of the strongest metal known to man, elegant and resilient, titanium rings have a sophisticated quality which really makes the wearer stand out from the crowd.

Titanium rings are the latest dramatic development on the jewelry market. Although they're available in a wide range of different styles, including striking color combinations which take advantage of this unique metal's unusual oxidative properties, they're still beneath most people's radar.

While most people still choose gold or silver for their rings, a titanium ring really makes a statement. Its subtle, understated tones complement the man who doesn't like to make a fuss - -it's jewelry without the showy element, an indication of wealth and style which feels no need to announce itself. Titanium rings convey real class.

Despite their sophisticated appeal, titanium rings have a solidity and bluntness about them which is wholly masculine. Their darker tones make them well suited to today's chunky, angular styles - -they're the perfect choice for high fashion rings with a very individual character. More resilient than any other metal used by jewelers, titanium has a natural resistance to dents and abrasions which allows it to be formed into shapes which, in softer gold or silver rings, would soon be lost.

Because they're so light, titanium rings can also be made bigger without compromising your dexterity. Yet despite their strength, they can be diamond etched, so it's still possible for you to get your titanium ring monogrammed or inscribed with words of your choice.

Titanium rings can be engraved with a variety of designs both traditional and modern to suit the wearer's individual style. Celtic knotwork and angular Aztec patterns are popular with men who want to show a connection to history or emphasise their heritage, whilst sleek minimalism conveys a highly modern sensibility.

Titanium rings can also be set with gemstones to add to their individual appeal. You may choose to combine two of the world's strongest materials with a titanium and diamond ring, a discreetly placed stone emphasising the dark tones of the metal. Black titanium oxide can also be blended with the grey of classic titanium to produce truly unusual, striking pieces of jewelry.

There is little in the field of contemporary jewelry to equal the style and durability of a titanium ring. Titanium rings are discreet in tone yet will always attract comment. They're a great choice for women looking for something special for the men in their lives, or for men who want to offset an outfit for a special occasion.

Because of their unmatched durability, rings also make ideal heirloom pieces. So take a look at the range of titanium rings available and find the right one for you.

Make an educated purchase. Read our detailed information about titanium rings before you buy at Titanium Rings Review and buy your titanium rings at the hottest prices in our store.

Premium brand watches have become really big in the UK in the last few years. This is for a number of reasons. Firstly, consumers have bought these watches in the past and found their experience to be very positive so have therefore continued to buy them. Consumers also feel very at ease when buying premium brand watches simply because they feel reassured when buying them. This is because they know that these types of watches are extremely reliable, authentic, long-lasting and are likely to stay in good condition for many years to come.

Consumers can buy these premium brand watches in many different shops. This is because nearly every shop in the UK knows that there is a big business to be had. These watches can also be found on the internet too. This is largely because the internet is becoming a fast-improving place to buy products. Customers can be safe in the knowledge that any purchase made online will arrive at the desired delivery address and in perfect condition.

Premium brand watches are generally bought as a one-off purchase. This is because they are very big and impressive products. They are also the types of products that people only really need now and again. A watch can last a very long time indeed and most people like to keep a watch for a number of years. That said, with people's tastes changing all the time, some individuals like to buy watches on a more regular basis so that they are always up-to-date with the times. Other people too like to own more than one watch so they can wear a particular watch depending on where they are headed for the night. For example, a watch at a dinner party may not be suitable for a Christmas Eve party.

Since premium brand watches are normally bought as a one-off purchase there are only a few select times of the year when they are most likely to be bought. The most common ones are for particular occasions. These are Christmas which is probably the most obvious and the most common time of year to buy products. Easter too is quite popular although other days such as Mother's Day and Father's Day are also popular as many people like to treat their mums and dads to some of these very special products.

Consumers like to buy premium brand watches right the way through the year but there are particular times of the year that people are more likely to buy. There are a number of different reasons too and premium brand watches are likely to be a popular choice for a number of years to come.

Timex Kids T749514E Blue and Pink Flower Time Teacher FabricStrap Watch

Timex holds the heart&minds of many when it comes to their first watch, and this super model shows us why. The high quality fabric strap only needs to be adjusted once. Children can then easily slip the watch on and off withourt the fuss of a conventional buckle. The strap also features Teflon fabric protection for better dirt and stain resistance. The dial is easy-to-read and children simply love the INDIGLO night-light.
Customer Review: Dissapointing
When this item arrived, the packaging was squashed as it was insuffienciently wrapped to protect it. As for the watch itself, it looks pretty but is made of plastic, I expected it to be metal being a timex and the elasticated strap does not grip onto the fastener, so when my daughter wears it it comes undone too easily. I would have returned it had I kept the packaging that was already damaged, but I didn't realise until all the wrapping had been thrown away at christmas.
Customer Review: Great
love it have had these watches for years and now theyre a bit childish for me so ive been looking to get a new one but i dont think i could live without the night light! the only thing is the silver paint around the face isnt there anymore and instead its just the white plastic underneath. We took it back to Asda (where i bought it for £10) and they exchanged it- no hassle, no questions asked! dont be afraid to go swimming with it - although they say if it says its under 50m water resistant it only means its splashproof! NO way! this watch (and the other ones like it) is absolutly fine under water! just dont press any buttons underwater (says the manual!!!!)

Many people would assume that Marilyn Monroe owned many jewelry boxes full of diamonds, pearls, and gemstones. It's true that she got to wear a lot of these things--being a big Hollywood screen start and sex symbol, she was often given jewelry to wear on loan at no cost by jewelers who wanted to use her for promotional ends. So she got to look great for free and they got free advertising.

But the truth is, Marilyn Monroe only ever owned two pieces of authentic high-class jewelry, and both of those were gifts from her husband Joe DiMaggio. One was a 16-inch Akoya necklace, a strand of 44 Mikimoto pearls from Japan, which he bought her on their honeymoon. The other was her diamond and platinum Eternity Band that she was given by Joe on their wedding day (which started an "eternity" that would last all of nine months). This sparkling, fiery, regal ring, which was both Marilyn's engagement and wedding ring at the same time, held 35 (some say 36) baguette-cut diamonds (cut in the form of a narrow rectangle). In 1999, Christie's auctioned off this ring for $772,500 even though it was missing one of the diamonds. Its estimate price pre-auction: $30,000 to $50,000.

Incidentally, the necklace was given to Marilyn's friend Paula Strasberg, wife of her mentor and acting coach Lee Strasberg, after her divorce from Joe; Paula's daughter Susan returned it to Mikimoto in 1998 and it's been on display ever since.

Marilyn and Joe had dated for two years. Then, on January 12, 1954, Joe proposed to Marilyn, and a few days later they went to San Francisco's City Hall to get married in a secret, intensely private ceremony to which they only invited six guests. But someone leaked news of this even to the press, and instead of just six guests more than a hundred adoring fans, journalists, and photographers showed up to the ceremony. Marilyn was dressed in a simple chocolate gown, while Joe sentimentally wore the same tie as on their first date along with a simple blue suit.

All of the other jewelry Marilyn Monroe ever owned was just costume jewelry. She always remained a simple gal named Norma Jean Mortenson in her heart.

The author just celebrated her one year anniversary and sports a beautiful ascher cut ring. She and her husband put together the website: http://www.ultimate-engagement-ring-guide.com to help you find the perfect ring.

Gold is probably the most popular precious metal and always had been. It has been used as a form of currency as well a being worn for its beauty. The ancient Egyptians felt that gold resembled the sun and was, therefore, a sign of very good luck.

Though there are many precious metals, only gold fulfills all four characteristics that make a universally treasured possession. These are: beauty, durability, workability, and purity.
Gold is defined by its karat. The karat indicates the amount of purity that is in an item. The common karats are 24, 18, 14, and 10. 24 karat gold is pure gold. 18 karat 18 parts gold and 6 parts metal. 14 karat gold has 14 parts and 10 parts other metals. 10 karat gold contains 10 parts gold and 14 parts metal. The karat of can affect its strength, price, color, and usefulness.

It does not only comes in a variety of karats, but it also comes in a variety of colors. It is often alloyed with other metals in order to increased its strength. During this process, the color of it can also be altered to make it yellow, white, or pink.

It is such a valuable commodity because it is a limited resource. It is found in riverbeds, oceans, and in the Earth's crust. However, it is very difficult to mine this because up to 3 tons of ore are needed to mine just a single ounce of it. The scarcity of gold is just one of many reasons why gold is such a hot commodity in today's world.

There is a new jewelry metal on the horizon palladium. As a platinum group metal, palladium offers customers a host of benefits that white gold and platinum cant touch. Are customers ready for a white metal that is less expensive than platinum and hypoallergenic unlike white gold? Many jewelers and jewelry stores are banking on it.

Palladiums steel-white appearance makes it an attractive jewelry alternative to white gold and platinum. However, palladium was difficult to cast with and had not been fit for jewelry casting until recently. Innovations in developing a castable palladium alloy produced 950 palladium, which is ideal for jewelry. It is expected that, within the coming months, consumers will begin to hear more about palladium and its benefits; and palladium could very well be the next revolution in jewelry. Much of this relies on the fact that palladium is in the platinum group of metals and shares many of the same attributes as platinum high purity, good luster, and white appearance.

Palladium versus Platinum

Much of platinums cache is due to its purity. Jewelry cast using pure gold (i.e., 24K) is soft and subject to damage, which threatens the overall look and luster of the jewelry piece. To combat this, gold is commonly mixed with copper or silver to strengthen it. The concerns over golds softness are why gold jewelry is typically crafted using 14 or 18 karat gold. Palladium is attractive to consumers in the same way as platinum because it is a purer material that is not fabricated or man made.

Another benefit of palladium is that it is over 40% lighter than platinum, a characteristic of palladium that has jewelry designers excited. Weight is a consideration that is especially important in earrings as heavier metals and bigger designs can stretch the ear lobe and be too heavy to wear. Larger stones can be set in a palladium design and, because it is less dense, the piece wont feel overly heavy to the wearer.

The biggest downside to platinum is its price. Often, consumers seeking that white-metal appearance had to settle for white gold or sterling silver because of platinums high price tag. Palladium is set to take a large share of the market because of its affordability. Palladium is less expensive than platinum and white gold a trend that should continue for the near term.

Palladium versus White Gold

Why is palladium more desirable? Unfortunately, white gold jewelry is manufactured using alloys containing nickel and up to 10% of the population experiences an allergic reaction to contact with nickel. Palladium is hypoallergenic so there are not the allergy concerns that plague white gold.

Also, palladium is harder than white gold making it more durable and less likely to mar. Durability is an issue particularly when it comes to mountings. If a gem stone is set using mountings made with a softer metal, the likelihood that one of the prongs could fail and the stone could fall out is higher. Often jewelers will use a harder metal in a ring setting to combat this but with palladium the entire jewelry piece can be made with the same metal.

A Growing Market

At this time refiners are working to provide 950 palladium to jewelry manufacturers and designers and many stores are set to educate consumers on palladium. All are expecting palladium to find a market as messages about its lower price and platinum-like characteristics are presented to consumers. The demand for palladium jewelry will dictate how quickly it is integrated into designers product lines and jewelry stores catalogs. Palladium will likely be used in the same jewelry categories as platinum, especially engagement rings and wedding jewelry.

This name is like a big umbrella covering a variety of stones that are all very similar in chemical composition. The difference between these silicates is where they are mined and the metal particles found in the silicate. Magnesium, iron, chromium and aluminum give each garnet gemstone its unique shade of red or other color.

Ancient Greeks and Romans thought the deep red gem resembled a pomegranate seed because of its color and round shape. They were very fond of the gems and used them in their jewelry and other embellishments. In ancient Egypt, Cleopatra wore the red gem probably thinking it was a ruby. Back then, they didn't know that this gem came in more colors than just red.

There are about 14 different varieties and most are mined in Africa. Tanzania, Namibia and parts of South Africa are common mining locations. Europe, Asia, Australia and the United States also have gem deposits. Carl Faberge used the emerald green stones found in the Urals of western Russia in many of his pieces.

A multitude of colors

Though the word garnet is tied to the word red, there are actually many different colors available. In fact, every color along the spectrum can be found except for blue. The most valuable gem is not even red, it is emerald green.

The varieties, demantoid and tsavorite, are the two most popular green stones and they can be quite expensive because of their rarity. With the discovery of new mines in Namibia, they may become more common.

However, the shades of red are still classic and always will be. But, if the traditional idea of a garnet necklace is not appealing, consider a yellow, black or even orange stones to drape your neck. It is all a matter of taste.

January birthstone

The garnet is the official birthstone for January. It is also the gem for the Zodiac sign of Aquarius, so some lucky February babies can claim it as their birthstone as well. Another official occasion that warrants a gift of garnet earrings or some other piece is the 2nd wedding anniversary.

How to care for garnet jewelry

Depending on the variety, these gems range from a 6 to a 7.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness. This means that they are quite durable and suitable for daily wear in all types of jewelry. They are not as delicate as other gems with the same rating because there is no cleavage present which makes it easier for the stone to split. It also makes it easier for the cutter.

A soak in warm soapy water should be sufficient to clean the grime that collects from daily wear. If lotion or soap remains in the setting, a quick scrub with a toothbrush is safe and will not scratch the stone.

Whether the stone is emerald green or violet red, it makes a beautiful and versatile piece of jewelry. A garnet pendant set in silver or gold can be worn casually or with formal wear. Whatever the need is, this gemstone offers a solution with its many shades of reds and other colors.

The garnet is the official birthstone for January and the gem for the Zodiac sign of Aquarius. With its many colors, this gemstone makes a beautiful and versatile piece of jewelry. For rare and unusual collections of garnet jewelry, visit http://www.gemaffair.com
