Choosing a Diamond Moissanite for your engagement ring

The terms "synthetic" and "simulated" are confused in the minds of most people. Synthetic: a "real material of diamonds, but man. Simulation of a material that looks much like a diamond, but is made from something else. A" synthetic diamond is actually an artificial diamond, but it is in deep secrets of the laboratory. The "simulated diamond or a CZ, a Moissanite simuilant or otherwise.

So far today, the moissanite is the best, although the color might be a little 'off. Moissanite is a stimulant very durable for diamonds. The only drawback is the particular stone, since some may show a greenish color. I suggest you ask to see more than a stone and compare the color than the white (not colored) moissanite.

Moissanite is a diamond, as a clear form of a substance that probably familiar with: Silicon Carbide. Think wet / dry sandpaper. This is silicon carbide, a material very hard and durable. When science has been able to consistently produce crystals of silicon carbide, the gem "Moissanite" was born, named after the discoverer's original many years ago and the first cargo of crystals were achievable.

This material is harder than most gemstones, is not bothered by the heat used in jewelry work (meaning if it tips into the stone needs to work in the future, stone can be left in place for the work to be done). The stone is bright, durable, beautiful eyes. The only distraction is the "sometimes" a bit 'off-color. That's why I propose to ask a jeweler to have more than a stone for you to select. Do this with stones removed. Remember, it's a carat weight and size!

Moissanite and diamonds are the same weight and caliber of one is not the same size as a carat each other. Just ask a "diamond, Carat, and size" when you take the stone. Most jewelers will do this automatically since the client wants to include size is relative to the size of the diamonds.

I think a good look at some stones and mounting will be selected and on your way, happy with the stone. These stones CZ is to beat all respects, except sometimes the "tint" of color. CZ should be perfectly clean to really look like a diamond, but the high refractive index and characteristics of Moissanite keep it looking like a diamond if a little 'dirty.

Yet an effort to keep clean all gemstones! Everything seems better that way and regular cleaning is the best way to check the wear and stones. Many jewelers will clean your item for free. Most should do, I think. Moissanite is an excellent choice. But be sure to see the first white rock and choose (most color free) stone.

"Metals." Platinum is an excellent choice for a ring, but please note that platinum will not keep a shine like white gold will. Platinum is durable, hypoallergenic, take good stones and everything else. Platinum is much more expensive than gold. Still, expect to develop a platinum look dullish after using a bit '. The other metal may be palladium, a metal of the platinum family.

Palladium is a decent metal but many jewelers can not work properly and very, very little choice in the market in palladium. We "No" palladium rings in our business. Palladium is mainly used to add gold to a form of white gold. Now, a white gold palladium-based metal is an excellent choice.

You should go to a jeweler to find someone experienced who knows the difference.This is what I mean: White gold is made by taking pure gold is yellow, adding other metals to make a "carat gold, like 14k or 18k. (Pure and 24k is too soft for jewelry.) Sometimes the metal is added to change the color of gold. For example, more copper makes rose gold. More nicklel makes white gold. In recent years, most manufacturers use palladium instead of nickel because some people are allergic to nickel or have a sensitivity to the metal.

These people can not wear white gold with white nickel. We, therefore, palladium white gold that is a slightly different white than nickel white gold but looks great and has no skin sensitivity problems. Some nickel latest mix of gold more stringent and have no "sensitivity" or problems.

I suggest asking for white gold (if platinum is out of budget) and see if it is white or nickel palladium white. Ask if the white nickel meets the new 'European standards' and is hypoallergenic. If the lady is the use of white gold and has no problems with white gold nickel regular should work fine. Just keep out of anything with chlorine, like swimming pools, bleaches, hot tubs, etc. Chlorine works real danger on nickel based white gold.

The wedding ring goes closest to the heart. In other words, offered the first wedding ring, then the engagement ring. In ancient times, it was believed that there was a vein that went directly from the ring finger of his left hand to his heart. Here is where the symbolism of wearing the wedding ring on that finger started. The ring is not the most important thing. The love you two share is and why you need to focus on the spot. I know it could be a bit 'more generous with money, but if this is your decision, go ahead and solve it or make a compromise.
