Facts and History of Gold and Diamond Jewelry
Gold and Diamond Jewelry - Rare, highly desirable and versatile, gold makes beautiful jewelry of all kinds; rings, earrings, bracelets, pendants and necklaces. However, pure gold is too soft to be used by itself in jewelry, so it must have an alloy as well, base metal. Gold jewelry of 14k and above is what you want. That's because anything less than 14k gold jewelry contains less than 50% actual gold - too little to meet quality standards.
The appeals of gold jewelry are universal and timeless. The most malleable metal, gold can be bent, twisted, stretched, hammered and milled, lending itself to a wide spectrum of jewelry shapes and textures. This precious metal enhances everything from big, bold fashionable jewelry designs to intricately detailed treasures. The styles available for necklaces, pendants, earrings, bracelets and rings are only limited by the designer's imagination.
Gold Jewelry is for the Riches of Hearts! Of all jewelry pieces, gold rings are the most popular. Gold is easily one of the most gorgeous metals known to us, and has been since it was first discovered. Going back to the first ancient empires, gold jewelry has been considered precious and was coveted by the rich. This is one of the reasons why gold jewelry is still so popular to this day. Add this to the diamond's brilliance and durability, the combination of gold and diamonds are magnificent!
