By Craig D Edwardson


Many men struggle with the task of finding that perfect piece of jewelry for the girl in their life. The search can be confusing, and knowing what she really wants is sometimes one of the mysteries of the world. In this article, let's discuss a few tips that can help. Guys, read on and get ready to shop!

Get your diamond jewelry professionally cleaned twice a year. Most jewelers will clean jewelry for free, even if it was not purchased in that store. Jewelry you wear every day, such as a wedding ring, may need more frequent cleaning. Be sure to ask a jeweler the preferred way of doing that.

Add extra depth and meaning to custom pieces by incorporating gemstones and beads that are associated with deeper meanings. To convey a sense of purity and peace, incorporate white stones like opals, pearls, diamonds, and colorless topaz as focal pieces. These colors look especially striking when paired with gold accents.

If you are going to chose to have an engagement ring and wedding ring soldered together, keep in mind that you may have to have the rings sized because there is a significant chance that the rings will fit the finger tighter than they do seperately. Rings that are too tight can cause circulation problems in the finger.

Jadeite is a popular stone for jewelry because it is tough and durable and comes in a very wide range of colors, from the classical apple green to a pure white, deep yellow, fiery orange, deep purple, and everything in between. It is frequently carved into bracelets or very ornate pendants, or insets.

If you are buying a gemstone, inquire if it has been treated. There have been many new stone treatments developed. These treatments help to improve the durability and appearance of gemstones. These new treatments, while helpful, may require special upkeep and lower the gem's value. Take this into consideration when buying a gemstone.

A great tip that can help you maintain your jewelry is to take off all your jewelry when you decide to clean your house. The harsh chemicals that are often found in cleaning solutions can damage your jewelry. Taking your jewelry off beforehand can help keep it in good condition.

Never wear any jewelry, especially gold pieces, in a swimming pool. The chlorine and other chemicals used to keep pools clean can cause rapid deterioration of the composition of your jewelry. Make sure you remove all pieces, including earrings or other piercings that you may not remove for any other occasion.
