Sterling silver is a combination of pure silver and a little bit of copper alloy. Silver in its original form looks bright white and it is extremely soft. Actually, 100% silver is almost too soft to work with. To enhance its beauty and durability, jewelers use sterling silver, which is composed of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper alloy. Sterling silver is hipo allergic and can be worn by most people. What is Cubic Zirconia? TOP

Adding chromium makes it green, and adding neodymium makes it purple. C.Z. is pink when erbium is added and golden brown when titanium oxide is added.What are Birthstones? TOP
The believe that there is a stone with undifined powers for every month goes back at least to the first century AD. Over time, gems with special colors became associated with the twelve signs of the zodiac, which correspond roughly with the months of the year. Each sign has its own name and its own characteristics. Those born under a particular sign are thought by some people to be influenced by that sign and to share common traits. Ancient people believed that to give birthstones as a gift would bring good luck and protect the person from harm.
There is some debate about which gemstones were assigned to each month by the ancient people. Because of this, different cultures around the world have developed different birth stone lists. Some people believe that the proper way to assign gemstones is according to astrological sign and not month.

A gemstone, gem or also called semi-precious stone is an attractive and valuable piece of mineral, which — when cut and polished — is used in jewelry or other adornments. Although certain rocks, (such as lapis-lazuli) and organic materials (such as amber or jet) are not classified as minerals by gemologists, they are still largely applied in jewelry. Therefore they are often considered to be gemstones as well. Some minerals that are too soft to be generally applied in jewelry may still be considered gemstones because of their remarkable color, lustre or other physical properties that have aesthetic value. The market value of a gemstone is mostly based on its great beauty, rarity, cut, popularity or aesthetics. The color also plays a very important role in determining the value of a gemstone. |
