Tips On Buying Silver.ag Brand Diamond Jewelry
Diamond jewelry is still often the jewelry of choice to celebrate important events or express your affection for someone
. However, these pieces can be very expensive and it is largely due to the value of the stones in any given piece. Learning more about how to buy quality stones may make it easier for you to find beautiful items at prices that are somewhat more affordable.
One reason that diamonds are so popular is their durability. Unlike other stones that may chip or crack, the surface of a diamond is very hard to damage. Some stones may suffer damage if they are worn for many years but this is much less likely than with any other stone.
When you look at a diamond you will see that its weight is expressed in carats. The more carats, the larger the stone is. You will also notice that a solitary stone is more expensive than multiple stones of the same total weight. A larger stone is harder to find than a smaller one and is more likely to have color issues or clarity issues. The last thing a buyer wants to see is a large flaw in the inside of their diamond.
Color can often be an issue when it comes to value and pricing. Some fashionable pieces feature colored diamonds in hues of pink, blue, brown or yellow. Some pieces will use a combination of different colored stones or match diamonds with other gem stones. However, colorless diamonds are still by far the most valuable. If a stone has some faint color to it then it will be less valuable and have a lower price tag than a diamond that is white or colorless.
Diamonds sparkle because of the facets that are cut into them. The overall shape can be round, oval or pear shaped. Often one shape or another will be considered to be more valuable because it is trendy. A well cut diamond reflects the light and seems to burn with an inner fire.
Cut stones are then set into metal and are normally held in place with prongs. The metal used to hold the stone in place and which is used to make the rest of the piece can also affect a piece's price. You can find pieces in stores and online. Online auctions may be a great place to find pieces at very affordable prices.
