Latest Fancy Earrings

When selecting a diamond earring set, it is important to have an understanding of the 4 C’s. But what are the four C’s and what in the world do they actually mean? Here is a brief explanation of clarity, cut, color, carat weight and what they mean when you are picking out diamond earrings or other diamond jewelry (i.e. a diamond bracelet or a diamond wedding band).
1) The Clarity of a Diamond: Out of the four C’s this is probably the most difficult for an ordinary person to distinguish when looking at a diamond earring, but is possibly the most important. The clarity determines how brilliant or dull the diamond will be depending on how much light can reflect without the disturbances of flaws (also known as inclusions). There are 12 different symbols that are used to describe the clarity of a diamond. An “F” denotes that the diamond is flawless while at the other end of the spectrum, an I3 explains that a diamond has obvious flaws that are easily seen with the naked eye. The ten grades in between these two describe how easily flaws can be seen and with what type of magnification.
2) The Carat Weight of a Diamond: While usually thought to explain size, the carat weight of a diamond actually is a measurement of the weight of diamond. One carat is equal to 0.2 grams or 0.007 of an ounce. It is therefore, not a measure of quality but a measure of quantity. The larger the diamond, the more valuable since larger diamonds are more rare than smaller ones. It is also important to remember that just because one diamond maybe double the weight of another diamond does not mean that the diamond earring will double in price. The price of diamonds rises exponentially.
3) The Cut of a Diamond: The term “cut” for a diamond has two different connotations. The more basic of the two, is the shape of the diamond. Diamonds come in various shapes such as the round, oval, emerald, pear, heart, and marquis. While these cuts are easy to distinguish and to choose from, the more difficult “cut” to decipher is the different angles, proportions, symmetry, finish and polish of the diamond earring. This plays a large part in the beauty of the diamond and how well it will reflect light. If it is a “shallow cut” light will be lost from the bottom while if it is a “heavy cut” light will be lost from the sides. The goal is to get a “fine cut” where no light is lost. The quality of the cut depends on the jeweler. A diamond is usually cut with 58 different facets. If the cuts are mathematically correct and precise, then the diamond earring will be able to reflect light with brilliance.
4) The Color of a Diamond: The color of the diamond helps determine the value of a diamond whether it is completely without color or is tinted yellow. There is a scale from D-Z that grades the color of the diamond. The letter D is used for diamonds that are completely clear. Before assuming that the farther along the scale you go less valuable the diamond is, think again. Within the scale there are canary yellow, blue, pink, and red diamonds that are considered to be very precious. For example, the rare and valuable Hope Diamond is not clear but blue.
Each of the 4 C’s plays a large part in the value of a diamond all must be taken into account when purchasing your diamond earring set. After gaining a better understanding of these important factors that affect the value of the diamond, decide what is important to you so that you can find yourself the perfect pair of diamond earrings.

When searching for affordable diamond earrings it is easy to get distracted by scams and deals which look

diamond earrings

too good to be true. When searching for affordable diamond earrings it pays to do the research. The most important items to remember are the four C’s: cut, color, clarity, and carat.
The first of the four C’s is the cut of the diamonds in the affordable diamond earrings. Cut refers to two different categories, the first is the shape of the diamond and the second is the quality of which it was cut. Diamond cuts have their own special names for example a princess cut is a pyramid shape with a square bottom, and an emerald cut is a longer rectangle. The quality of the cut is how sharp the angle is and how much light the cut reflects making the diamond sparkle more. When buying affordable diamond earrings you can save money by buying lower quality cuts, because it is a feature that few nonprofessionals will notice. You can also try to by less common cuts because they are usually the most affordable diamond earrings. Princess cut diamonds are usually 30% more expensive than emerald cuts, making emerald diamond earring the more affordable diamond earrings.
The color is the natural tint of the diamonds. Diamonds occur naturally in nature and therefore do not always come clear. If you buy diamonds with a little bit of a yellow tint than it is much easier to find affordable diamond earrings. Conversely, diamonds full of natural color like pink and red are more expensive and should be avoided when trying to buy affordable diamond earrings. Clarity is the number of inclusions or imperfections in your diamond earrings. Diamonds come from nature with small gas pockets these pockets reflect the light differently than the rest of the diamond. A perfectly clear diamond is very expensive so when looking to buy affordable diamond earrings a few marks inside are perfectly acceptable. Usually these marks are difficult even impossible to see by the naked eye, so they make a great way to get cheaper diamond earrings.
Carat is the size of a diamond A carat is about 200 milligrams, and each carat is broken up into 100 “points”. When buying diamonds from a reputable dealer make sure you know the difference between a carat and a point. If you see a deal that is .25 for less than $100 than it is most likely .25 points or not real diamonds. A reputable retailer will be honest with you about the size and will always write ct (the symbol for carat) or ctw/tcw (the symbols for total carat weight). When buying diamond earrings, look for the total carat weight symbol because earrings come in pairs and should have two equal size diamonds.

Some rubies display a splendid and glorious silky shine called the “silk” of the gemstone which is caused by the fine needles of rutile.

By far, the use of ruby in the gemstone jewelry industry was often witnessed in gemstone rings and pendants. The popularity of rubies in gemstone earrings is also gaining momentum in recent times.
The red of the rubies is a hot, passionate and powerful color. Rubies are considered as a perfect way to expresses compassionate and powerful feelings. Engagement Rings set in rubies are, therefore, thought to symbolize passionate love. The value of a ruby depends on its color and attractiveness of the color. Rubies fall into various categories depending on their color and value. The top most category being the “Burmese Ruby”. It does not necessarily mean that the gemstone is of Burmese origin; it is merely an indication of a rich, full red with slightly bluish hue of the concerned ruby, which is a peculiarity of the stones from the famous deposits of Burma, now Myanmar. The color is sometimes referred to as “pigeon-blood-red”.
Other qualities that are determinants of the value of a ruby are cut, clarity and size, similar to that of other gemstones.
