Buying diamond jewelry can be fun, exciting and confusing. If you consider a gift of diamond jewelry for someone special or draw as a reward for yourself, take some time to get used to the conditions in the industry. Here is some information that will help you achieve the best quality diamond jewelry for your money, if you store in a traditional brick and mortar or online shopping.

Paintings

Color, cut, clarity and carat a diamond in the figure is based on four criteria. Clarityand the color of a diamond usually are graded. However, the scales are not uniform: a clarity grade of "slightly included" may represent a different class of a classification system over another, depending on the conditions used in the scale. Make sure you know how a certain point and the color quality and clarity of the diamond to represent to consider. A diamond can be described as "flawless" if it has no visible surface or internal defects, when viewed under 10-fold magnification by an expertDiamond Grader.

As with other gems, diamond weight usually is stated in carats. Diamond weight may be in decimal or fractional part of a carat are described. If the weight is given in decimal part of a carat, the figure should be accurate to one decimal place. Could, for example, "0.30-carat" represent a diamond that weighs between .295 to .304 carat. Some retailers describe diamond weight in fractions and the fraction represent a range of weights. For example, depicts a diamondof 1 / 2 carat could weigh between .47 to .54 carat. If the weight of diamond is shown as a fractional part of a carat, the merchant must indicate two things: that the weight is not exact, and uses the reasonable range of weight for each fraction or the weight tolerance.

Some diamonds may be treated to improve their appearance in similar ways as other gemstones. Since these treatments improve the clarity of the diamond, some jewelers refer to them as clarity enhancement. A sort ofTreatment – fracture filling – conceals cracks in diamonds by a foreign substance. This coverage may not be permanent and jewelers should
Indicate whether the diamond you are considering has been fracture filled.

Another treatment – lasering – involves the use of a laser beam to improve the appearance of the diamond, black inclusions or pots. A laser beam is aimed at integration. The acid is then out through a small tunnel through the laser beam, had to remove theInclusion. Laser is permanent and a laser-drilled stone does not require special care.

Appear during a laser-drilled diamond can be beautiful as a comparable untreated stone, it may not be so precious. This is because an untreated stone of the same quality is rarer and therefore more valuable. Jewelers should tell you if the diamond you're considering has been laser drilled.

Imitation diamonds, such as zirconia resemble diamonds in appearance but are much less expensive.Some gems lab created, as a laboratory-cr eated mois healthcare also resemble diamonds and may not be sufficiently originally used by the instruments that are recognized to identify cubic zirconia. Ask your jeweler if he has the equipment test current between the laboratory created diamond stones and other celebrities.

Advanced Diamond Clarity – A couple of things you should know!

Advanced Diamond Clarity – A couple of things you should know!


Advanced Diamond Clarity – A couple of things you should know!

Posted: 27 Jul 2011 02:20 AM PDT

What are they and what are not …

Diamond clarity, diamond, he needed only a "makeover". These are diamonds that are mostly relatively clean, except for an exceptional record or two. Think of it as always a little 'plastic surgery. A "diamond plastic surgeon," begins with a diamond, which was a bit 'of clarity … SI2 a very low, a I1, I2, or a very high clarity. If the diamond record (s) may be, to be less obvious, then you have amore marketable diamonds. Diamond clarity diamonds are 100% real and are not a kind of diamond simulants (such as a cubic zirconia or moissanite) or synthetic diamonds.

Would improve the clarity of the diamond started out as a diamond, a recording (s) that could easily visible without magnification … would not be what is called "eye clean" like a diamond. Using this process to improve clarity, the diamond is a diamond, which nowcan be described as "eye clean", because the registration (s) are less visible. Diamond clarity can be purchased for a substantial savings compared to a similar non-enhanced diamonds.

A little 'history

Diamond clarity is a relatively new procedure, since the early 80s, so it should be, because if it were a diamond clarity in her grandmother's diamond ring to find. This process involves the use of lasers and high-tech materials that do notavailable if your grandmother committed. The only person who is with the commercial production of diamonds clarity credited Zvi Yehuda. His company is still committed to improving the clarity of the diamonds and have worked to improve the process over the years.

How it works?

Clarity diamonds fall into one of two categories. Both types of diamond clarity should be relatively easy to recognize, a trained person. Some jewelers can not becapable of a site for greater clarity diamond, but is recognized in any case, if a diamond clarity to a gemological laboratory for a diamond grading report will be sent.

The two processes are as follows-

Process # 1 – laser-drilling process is to obtain a precise laser drilling down into a diamond, access to a diamond inclusion. The recording is bright in color on a dark background. Because of all the back white light through the diamond, theDark diamond engagement would be very obvious. Once you reach the heat absorption of the laser beam is completely vaporize the recording repeatedly. A special cleaning solution (acid really hot!) May need to bleach dark recording, so that after his treatment, then a bright image on a light background.

The laser-holes, which are now in the diamond is extremely small and you need high magnificationto see. Because of the low contrast between the light-colored background now and the purity of its integration of these diamonds greater clarity is to be improved. The newly improved clarity diamond is often called "eye clean", but its degree of clarity (as determined under magnification) will not change. The process is seen as a permanent treatment and it is possible that the diamond through a laboratory will become a gem and diamond grading report on this and take note of the diamondLaser drilling on the report.

Fracture process of filling # 2 Now, this process provides a number of concerns! It can be difficult to discern, even from people who think that you should know what to look would be … Normally, you will see a purple flashing orange when the stone is turned and the light is in the area, which reflects the fracture filling. Fracture Clarity Enhancement is the same process used is when you get a crack in the windshield. A liquid isforced the crack (fracture), and as if by magic … disappears! It 'really a drastic change in appearance of the diamond. The liquid that is used is a glass-like material that has similar optical properties that the diamond has. The breach, which is filled, must reach the surface of the diamond. Some diamonds have clarity and laser drilled then filled fracture.

The biggest problem is that this treatment will be presented, if a fracture filled with clarityDiamond is available in a jewelry store for a certain type of repair work. Heat from a torch (it will burn until the fracture filling material), excessive pressure in the wrong place, and ultrasonic cleaning equipment with strong cleaning solutions have the ability to completely rock lives! If the jeweler knows in advance that they have greater clarity fracture filled diamond, then the work of these problems can be avoided. Fracture filling is not permanentTreatment.

So, a diamond clarity is right for you?

Maybe … There's really nothing wrong with diamond clarity. There can be a very good value for you … Perhaps a saving of 10%, 20%, 30% or more. I have some beautiful diamonds, clarity seen. I think it usually takes more suitable for earrings, pendants, brooches, etc. A diamond that is worn on or around your hand (a ring, bracelet, cuff links, etc.),a lot of abuse.

Some of the companies that make these processes are proud of their achievements and work with the trade, so as to promote a valid and valuable. Some clarity diamond grading report to come, the company has hash marks, and provide a lifetime warranty. There are some diamonds clarity to a client without the client sells it to remember … safe. My youngest occurrence to see more clearly when a diamond has beenCustomer brought his wife's diamond ring for evaluation. It 'was many years ago by his friend, an optician's shop had bought, but sold some jewelry. The customer was disappointed, but I'm sure that the optician is not even aware that the ring was sold, was clearly his best friend. But what I had to break the bad news about the clarity of the diamonds to the customer.

If you come with a reputable company and all diamonds purchased are dealing with a content of the reportthen you reduce the chances of this happening to you. As with any situation involving an expensive purchase just something that not many are good at, education should be an integral part of your plan. This is particularly important if you are planning a major purchase of diamond clarity.

There are a lot of people do not know what moissanite is. In fact, if someone offered to give them a piece of moissanite, they would probably refuse. Moissanite is a jewel and this jewel simply does not have properties that other jewels. If you have a piece of moissanite jewelry, then it is very likely that moissanite is mined. This is because if someone tries to create moissanite in a laboratoryThen it would take 104 years to complete this process.

Moissanite is a beautiful piece of jewelry and moissanite discount will be even better if you buy it. Moissanite is usually compared to diamonds and there are many diamond vs moissanite websites. The main thing is that when someone mentions diamond vs moissanite moissanite jewel will win forever. Diamonds are always the strongest substance known to man but moissanite is thenearest second. Even a diamond moissanite vs heat resistance show surprising results. A diamond will catch fire and then vaporize at 1100C. However, moissanite is still entirely intact at this temperature and will still look as handsome as the day that was originally created.

Other diamond vs moissanite moissanite tests show that resistance due to high temperatures, it is easier to cast moissanite jewelry body and therefore notmay be the perfect design, they are trying to achieve. Diamonds are also susceptible to heat damage, when a jeweler is the repair of these diamonds. However, with moissanite moissanite damaged the chances will be less likely if the jeweler does repair work. Moissanite in a fire house has a high probability of survival. Although temperatures, extreme moissanite has a better chance of surviving than a diamond. This means thatThey are less likely to lose this precious jewel in a fire.

It can be very hard to find discount moissanite anywhere. This is due to many reasons, and only these reasons is because moissanite jewelers previously only available for a few years ago, so this is still a unique piece of jewelry. Buy One reason why people like moissanite is due to the fact that moissanite is lighter then a diamond, and you might forget that you are wearing aJewel, an exclusive piece of jewelry is in there. Moissanite in a few years, the probability is much higher off of the opportunities that exist today.

The Trouble With Moissanite

The Trouble With Moissanite


The Trouble With Moissanite

Posted: 19 Jul 2011 10:40 AM PDT

Natural mined diamonds have recently come out from under the heat. Award-winning journalist Cecil Adams sums it up best in a recent article: "diamonds are a scam, pure and simple." To understand the majority of people in the new millennium, between the De Beers diamond cartel, not the problem of child labor in Third World diamond processing and "blood" diamonds used to finance oppression and genocide in countries Third World Africans, not to mention his haughty and pretentious local Diamond jewelers are not only worth it, and do not forget the debt, spent thousands and thousands of dollars questionable.

Lately, new synthetic diamonds on the market that all the looks, charm, beauty and sparkling natural diamonds have come, but without the baggage, and at a fraction of the cost.

Since moissanite burst on the scene in the late 90s, has certainly caused a stir. Moissanite is gem-quality silicon carbide. The production of> Moissanite is a proprietary method, and it is only from C3 Inc, a division of Cree Research available.

When moissanite was introduced on the market has created a lot of publicity. This was due to the fact that moissanite is often thought to fool a jeweler, was a natural diamond. Both the Nova and 20/20 TV news, the segments with hidden cameras showing jewelers fooled and embarrassed by moissanite loose. What waswas not so simple.

Jewelers are generally based on a so-called "thermal-probe" to detect a fake diamond. Thermal probes work well with cubic zirconia, for example. Moissanite, however, has a thermal conductivity that is very close to diamond. It could fool the older thermal probes. The fact of the matter is though, moissanite really just does not see as much as diamonds. The two substances have radically different optical properties. ThisThe differences are clearly visible to the naked eye. It was evident in both the Nova and 20/20 segments that the jewelers were clearly confused. He looked at the stone and then test and said things like, "Well, I think it must be real." What it actually says "Well, I think it must be real, but it's certainly a weird looking diamond!"

Problems with Moissanite, a diamond stimulant

Anisotropy

Unlike natural diamonds, or some of the best qualitysynthetic diamonds like those available from Diamond Nexus Labs (http://www.diamondnexuslabs.com) moissanite stones have an optical quality known as "hexagonal polytypic." This means that moissanite is doubly refractive. And why create a strong visual effect known as "birefringence." This is visually a doubling of facets back of the stone, which has seen a marked effect "drunk-vision" has been created.

Dispersion

Moissanite has a dispersive poweralmost 2.5 times larger than the diamond. This creates what is known as "disco ball" effect. Some think that this excess fire is beautiful, others think he is cheap and false looking.

Color

It 'impossible to produce a pure white moissanite. The stones have a quality like "fluorescence", the causes in which they appear slightly green or gray-known. This effect is much greater under natural light. In jewelry moissanite dealer will always save the stonesin a light pink color, like these usually raise their fluorescence. Many people say they loved their moissanite ring until it got to sunlight.

Costs

Thanks to the manufacturing process relatively large and the fact that it is only available from one source, tends moissanite is very expensive (though still cheap compared to diamonds) are pretty good quality moissanite stones of about $ 520 per carat.

Best Synthetic DiamondsAlternative

In the last two years there have been almost miraculous advances in the science of synthetic diamond creation. There are some new processes, the precious stones that create little to natural diamonds. One of the best I've found precious stones are available http://www.DiamondNexusLabs.com. I recently independent research for several synthetic diamond companies and found their products are among the best.

Diamond Nexus gemstones cut glass, are factors of brilliance, dispersion and transmission, which are very close to mined diamonds, and best of all, because they are new to the U.S. market, have an incredible $ 79 per carat prices. This is a deal that probably will not last.

Completion

Moissanite stones are beautiful in themselves. They offer high brightness and flash. However, if you try really a gem that is as close as possible to acquire ownership of natural diamonds> Moissanite is not the best choice.

The natural moissanite has a fascinating story, and Nobel laureate Dr. Henri Moissan you can discover the world for the gift of a meteorite that crashed to thank the thousands of years the Arizona desert. The results were surprising – Today, moissanite is produced artificially.

Natural moissanite is too minute to be of great interest to jewelers and jewelry enthusiasts. However, the synthetic version is currently in productionexclusively by Charles & Colvard, Ltd. is a different story.

Given that research and development process CREE started in 1980, the market now with amazing clarity and shining stones. Moissanite stones are of a similar hardness and durability is set with diamonds. Cubic zirconia can, the "synthetic" diamonds moissanite choice, to come forward, not hold a candle to this mineral.

In fact, a test protocol does not recognize the conventionalDifference between moissanite and diamonds at all. But it is sold for no more than 1:10, which is not a diamond larger and lower costs of 1:5.

A moissanite stones are designed flawlessly with a cutting machine. Stones are now available for an unlimited range of imaginative ideas jewels. Currently it seems that the most popular formats for moissanite jewels "stand-alone 'for the heart-shaped or pear brilliant, trillions of dollars, and the Round Square, to beOval, the brilliant and the marquise. They are almost colorless, perfectly accessible and available in selected stores that guarantee authenticity.

The fact that moissanite stones than diamonds, emeralds, sapphires and rubies of brilliance – and a rock that stands for less than $ 400 – this stone ensures a significant place in history. The stone is now so popular that Zirconia much less valuable, previously known only as imitation diamonds, it has now passed asmoissanite. Care is therefore very advisable to buy.

The mineral moissanite derives its name from Nobel Prize winner Dr. Ferdinand Henri Moissan, who discovered traces of it in a meteorite at Diablo Canyon it in 1893. What makes this substance so special is that it is almost as hard as diamond. On the Mohs Scale, which measures the hardness of minerals (www.amfed.org/t_mohs.htm) it scores a 9.25 compared to the “perfect 10″ of diamond.

There was an initial furor on the jewelry market when moissanite first surfaced. Would it compete with diamond as the world’s most treasured mineral? The fact was that even seasoned experts might be fooled into mistaking colorless maissonite for diamond without the proper equipment. In fact, moissanite even shares the thermal conductivity and much of the molecular structure of diamond.

Those misgivings have since been laid to rest. In the first place, natural maissonite (moissanite-6H) does not come in big enough sizes to be useful as jewelry, and the synthetic version (silicon carbide or aluminum oxide) is not held in high esteem among purists. Secondly, there is an infallible test protocol that the difference between moissanite and diamonds can be easily read.

However, moissanite has now emerged as a valid means of its own jewelry. The stones are made from its synthetic version marketed as SiC gemstones, and have quite a fan base. They are twice as likely to "fire" found indiamonds, and are certainly cheaper.

Natural moissanite is crystalline, green in color, with an adamantine luster. It is generally transparent or translucent and occurs in hexagonal or trigonal shapes. These are the main factors used for determining it. It belongs chiefly to the carbon group of compounds, which also includes diamond and graphite.

moissanite reviews

Moissanite adherents swear that sparkle outclasses diamonds by a mile and a half. The fact that no natural defects is also found in his favor. He wears a ring moissanite is a sure eye-catcher and conversation starter. The stones are more common than the previous favorite, cubic zirconium, for engagement, wedding and anniversary rings.

Certain class of purists object that moissanite, no matter how admirable its properties can not be with theemotional value of a diamond on occasions of the heart. What could be the fact that it costs less to do. In addition, many people still see moissanite as a "fake diamond" -. A definition justified Moissanite is a mineral very unique and is not intended to replace all other stones.

Also, the diamonds are considered to be appropriate, engagement, wedding and anniversary rings because they are "forever". The factor "eternal" comes from the almost indestructibleNature of Diamonds. With this coin has its own moissanite diamond. Fits right in – if not exceeds – the sparkle and "fire" of diamonds. In other words, these arguments fall flat in light of the logic impartial. Platinum, for example, must not exceed the gold – a precious metal and is only attractive in itself.

In fact, most of the current prejudices against the rings moissanite opportunities for emotional / relationship more to do with a strong advertising campaign successagainst them than anything else. Moissanite jewelry is a valid means, measured in carats worth of precious metals like gold, silver and platinum.

If nothing else, the choice of diamonds shows a progressive thinker who defies the tradition of moissanite deflection. This planet has limited resources and diamonds will always be less in the coming years. It would be a sad statement for modern civilization, when reduced to engagements and weddingsproportionately.

Zirconia is what the difference between a CZ and a real diamond?

The answer is not much. CZ are rapidly becoming a substitute for diamonds in the world.

With just the naked eye, most people are not able to distinguish between a CZ and the real thing, the experts have to use the zoom and other tests to determine which is false, and this is a real diamond.

The most important thing is that to the untrained eye, CZ looks identical to a real diamond. CZ is underMagnifying do not shine and gloss as the stones are genuine, and offer more variety, or "fire" in the reflections they produce.

Russians were the first to develop stones as a substitute for the optical lens and in its space program, the diamonds were too expensive.

CZS are also reflective, in most cases, and their light scattering and hardness are very close to a diamond.

There are some important factors and determinants, which is to distinguish between a diamondand CZ. But keep in mind that to the naked eye is not sufficient to distinguish between the two lens microscope and other tools are needed.

The hardness of the stone is the first thing to examine the area around CZ often rated 8.5 to 9.0 Mohs hardness and diamonds, 10. Diamonds as the hardest substance known to man, are at the upper end of the scale, 10 is the highest ranking is at present.

Glass, sand and rocks are classified by about 5 or 6, so as not to damage or scratch a CZso do not worry about its durability.

CZS and diamonds do very different weight. CZS are about 1.75 times heavier than a diamond of similar size. Basically, what a CZ the same size as a 1-carat diamond, 1.75 carat in fact, a comparison is difficult, just in terms of size and weight.

Although it is difficult or almost impossible to find a flawless diamond, CZS are almost perfect because they are made, human and manufactured in laboratories. Most diamonds contain someImperfections may be evident only under magnification.

The perfection of means, or a rock that is extremely rare flawless diamond expensive, or it is a CZ.

Speaking of colors, and the lack of color, only the rarest and most perfect diamonds are colorless, are more of a yellow tint or brown. Most CZS are completely colorless, giving them a perfect score on the scale color diamond, once again very difficult to obtain in nature.

Even under the microscope, the structure of the CZSis very different from diamonds. It 'obvious (under magnification), the stones were produced in nature, and which were made in a laboratory.

The isolation of the CZS and diamonds is also different, which is not so important in jewelry, but also in other applications where the stones are used. Machining and cutting production stability, thermal-lens applications and examples of thermal dynamics, the stones.

Remember, it is almost impossible to get a CZ for a distinctionreal diamond to the naked eye. Only testing will prove safe. If you are looking for better, cheaper alternative to real stone is a CZ is the right choice.

3 reasons why Moissanite is a poor choice of engagement rings

Diamonds are traditionally placed in engagement rings. But since consumers about diamonds sign that the price of diamonds artificially high, blood diamonds, to keep the illegal financing of wars and oppression in the Third World and the confusion by clearly compromised when they purchase five Cs trying to be polite cut, color, carats and costs, some people are beginning to consider alternatives.

However, if you love the look of diamonds and so they want something like aDiamond for your engagement ring, there are many fake diamonds to choose from and you can do much better than moissanite.

Moissanite on the market at the end of 1990. At that time it was hailed as better than the real thing! Goldsmiths in testing, has not even coached could be distinguished from real diamonds. It looked stunning, and it came at a fraction of the cost of a real diamond! It 'was certainly a need for money, wonderful lover of stone!

Do not suffer like this. InIn fact, moissanite is a poor imitation of real diamond.

The reason why there are jewelers, of course, many originally fooled just because they have never seen anything like it. At that time, jewelers use a thermal probe categorically identify a fake diamond, like a cubic zirconium. At that time only genuine diamonds were known to have thermal conductivity, so that only genuine diamonds could exist to test the thermal probe. However, moissanite has a thermalConductivity is virtually identical to diamond, so that there is also the test. Although jewelers could see that it is very different from the real diamond saw, because it is past the temperature sensor, were forced to identify the strange stone like a real diamond.

Now its properties are largely known, is no fool jewelers. Moissanite and diamonds look too different. And you can also see three differences for you!

1 Diamonds refract light. Moissanite breaktwice. This means that the light bounces off the inner surface of the stone is an apparent doubling of back facets causes. To all those who look closely into the stone like a double or blurred vision.

2 Precious stones get their fire when the light scatters Moissanite scatter light very well;. Almost 2.5 times better than real diamonds and makes them flash with intense brightness. This beauty has made them very popular in the early years. But, as the stone wasis better known, identifies the "disco-ball effect" as a fake diamond, and is now believed that cheap and tacky.

Moissanite 3 fluorescence under natural light, which they see is greyish or greenish. This is a serious disadvantage, and why you should never put them in an engagement ring, unless you want to play during the day!

Although beautiful in itself, but if you want to save money and want to buy a fake diamond engagement ring, there are much better choices outthere.
