Whether buying a trinket for your
wife, daughter, mother, or yourself, you want to pick something that brings a
smile to someone's face. We've included several ideas on how to pick up the
right item for your loved one which will be appreciated and worn many times to
come.
Make sure you know what to look for
when buying women jewelry. Platinum needs to be at
least 95% pure in order for it to be considered real platinum. If it's lower it
is platinum alloy. Also, be aware that platinum can develop a patina, which
many people feel gives jewelry a nice antique look. This jewelry also does not
wear away and is hypoallergenic.
Don't purchase used earrings without
disinfecting the posts or ear hooks. Other people have been wearing them,
especially true for vintage pieces, and there are plenty of germs lying around.
Take some lemon juice or hydrogen peroxide, squeeze some onto a cotton swab and
run it over the ear pieces of the earrings. This will kill the germs, making it
safe to wear the earrings.
When looking to invest in fine
jewelry, understand the different price ranges different metals and gemstones
fall into. For example, understanding that opal is very expensive, you can
already figure out if you see someone selling it for under twenty dollars, it
is a fake. Knowing that sterling silver is a lot cheaper than white gold, but
quite similar in appearance, can help narrow down your price when looking to invest
in a nice pair of earrings.
One "old fashioned" piece
of jewelry that you might want to reconsider wearing, is a watch. Younger
people are used to using their cell phones or other electronics to tell time,
but in certain situations, it may be more appropriate or more professional to
wear a nice watch. You don't want to be constantly checking your watch at a job
interview or a formal event, but wearing one sends a certain message.
The best thing you can do to care
for your fashion jewelry wholesale is to make
sure it is properly insured, especially if it is highly valuable. This will
protect your jewelry from theft, damage, and being lost. There are many ways
you can insure your jewelry, and it is definitely worth looking into since no
one wants to be left standing after suffering an unfortunate event.
Check for wear and damage in every
piece you buy. Spending money on jewelry can be a worthy investment, but if the
item you invest in is not in good condition, you will be wasting your money.
Thoroughly examine each piece to be sure your investments are truly worth the
money.
To dress up a knit top or a
T-shirt, pair it with a long necklace that has a simple style. Long necklaces
will add visual interest to your top, but keeping them basic will prevent them
from overpowering your look. Try wearing thin layered necklaces or a necklace
with a Y-shape.
View the gemstones in correct
lighting, with the right background. Diamonds or other gems should never be
viewed on a black background. Black backgrounds alter your perception of a gems
real shine and color, so you may make a purchase and later realize that the
stone is not as clear and perfect as you originally assumed.
Do not underestimate the power of pearl
jewelry. Pearls are often considered a throwback to the days of old. How untrue
this is. Modern pearls come in so many varieties, you can cheaply acquire them
and spice up any fashion style you are trying to pull off. They come in many
colors and shapes.
When selling a piece of jewelry
online, you should make certain that you include size and lengths information.
This is extra important with an online transaction because the customer can not
physically see the jewelry. For example, if you are making jewelry pieces that
are wire-wrapped, then you should include photos to assure your customers that
the pieces are smoothly finished. Therefore, the sweater won't be poked by a
sharp wire.
