Interesting Facts About Silver Jewelry

Most jewelry that is memorable usually has an exquisite gem set within it. Though the common person may recognize the beauty of such jewelry, they are more than likely not aware of how difficult this is to do. Being able to take a simple stone and extract the gem within it is a skill that most people do not possess. If you are able to do this in a flawless manner, you have a high degree of skill and have definitely mastered this art. The end result is what most people see which is a great-looking piece of jewelry.

Women are the obvious audience that is interested in fashion jewelry. This jewelry is designed for the many women who are unable to have a large selection of fine jewelry at their fingertips. With so many choices and designs available in fashion jewelry today that by no means indicates that you have to suffer with "bad" or inferior looking jewelry. But this is a type of jewelry that, by and large, appeals mostly to women. Choosing the right jewelry can turn an ordinary outfit into a fashion statement.

Another good reason to have a trusted jeweler, is when you have silver jewelry that you want to evaluate. To learn the reality of your silver items, there are two different choices you have. One way takes making a small scratch on the jewelry, and then putting several drops of nitric acid on it.

If you are hoping that your jewelry is sterling, then you will be happy when the acid turns cloudy and gray. If the drops form a green color, then of course that signifies the jewelry is silver plated. If you don't think you can examine your silver correctly, then get your jeweler to do it for you.

The third class, contemporary jewelry, offers numerous choices in the marketplace. That's our next subject for discussion. The fashion industry continues to change, advance, and progress and the top fashion designers annually present their new products annually. Just as the fashion designers hope their particular "look" or line will become the new trend, so do the top jewelry designers when they create their new lines of contemporary jewelry. No one knows in advance which contemporary jewelry line, or designer, will become the next "I have to have it" trend-setter. But one thing that is interesting is the influence of celebrities in both music and movies in fashion and jewelry. The press is responsible for women all over the world copying their favorite public figure. When "normal" women read about what these world-famous women wear, they want to wear the same things.

There are all kinds of reasons women fall in love with jewelry but it's an affair to remember for most women and one that will last a lifetime. It really isn't the cost of the jewelry that brings about this lasting love affair but the feeling you get when you're wearing that perfect extra touch for your outfit.
