Trends play such a large influence on womens jewellery today. Gone are the days when you can just turn up at the jeweller’s and say “show me your ladies gold rings” and just pick one. Fahion influences ring design, and every other aspect of life. Often the trend setters are the “Jewellers to the Stars” such as Giovanni Bosco and others. Advances in jewelry manufacture means that we can do more with the same materials. To help you along here are some of the latest tips for designer jewelry.
Buying A Ladies Gold Plated Engagement Ring: The New
Modern designs are usually minimalist and geometric. The sleek designs are more for trendsetting women, whether they are a bride, or just accessorizing. Some of the latest advances include “Tension”, where the stone appears to float, but is actually just held around the edges, and “Bezel” where the stone is flush with ring’s surface. There are new styles of cuts with diamonds, such as the Zales and Lucida (by Tiffany). They have more facets that old styles to increase the stone’s “fire”. There are also a number of alternative shapes such as the princess-cut diamond. These styles really give those searching for ladies gold rings more individuality. But just like ladies gold watches, you need to consider the contingency of a piece of jewellery going out of fashion.
Buying An Engagement Ring: The Classic
Of course, the point of ladies white gold plated rings, whether diamond encrusted or not, is to last. Classically styled rings never go out of fashion, so if you’re looking for something long term, they’re often a better choice. But over the years, there have been designs that have quickly become classics, such as the three stone diamond ring.
Buying An Engagement Ring: The Colours
Of course, gold is never structurally hard enough to be used in jewellery on its own, so most times, ladies gold plated bracelets and rings will have another metal mixed with them. Of course, a lot of 9ct gold plated rings are made in this fashion, as they have less gold in them.
White Gold: Nickel and Palladium
Rose & Pink Gold: Copper
Green Gold: Silver
For those who are not flush with money, but still would like something nice, perhaps a 9ct gold plated wedding ring with a cubic zirconia stone. They don’t usually last as long as a diamond, but they are wonderful, and it gives you a good excuse to have a second wedding down the track. There are also many different coloured stones which can suit different types of rings, such as sapphire, ruby, emerald and tanzanite.
Buying An Engagement Ring: The Ancient
Family Heirlooms are always a good seller, particularly those set in platinum. Antique rings also give the wearer a feeling of unique expression, knowing that the piece can’t be simply purchased in a shop. When buying a ring, individuality is a key consideration.
