Tips In Finding Antique Jewelry

The age jewelry has to be to be classified as antique is not set in stone, but generally, vintage jewelry can be called antique jewelry at 100 years of age. The majority of antique jewelry that has survived the passage of time has been handed down in families thus making the pieces far more valuable than their monetary price suggests.

However, there still are a few places you can find antique jewelry. Now all you need to do is learn how to determine the price and authenticity so you don?t get ripped off.

There are jewelers that specialize in antique jewelry, and even though their prices may be high, it is worth investigating to gain experience on the market value of various pieces.

To be a serious buyer and collector of antique jewelry, you have to know your pieces and what to look for. Otherwise you can easily be fooled into buying a modern piece that just looks old. Unfortunately there is no quick way to acquire this knowledge. Although you might want to look into adult classes at the college or adult education center and see if they happen to offer a class on antique jewelry. Chances are you will be on your own though. And in this case, experience is the best teacher.

Auction houses are the ideal place to begin your education on antique jewelry. By seeing the pieces in person, reading the proper descriptions, and then finding out the going price and demand for the pieces, you will gain a real world education in antique jewelry that will make you a pro in no time.

Antique jewelry is often made from the highest quality of materials at a high level of craftsmanship. This is actually what helps the piece to survive the ravages of time and go on to become an antique piece of jewelry.

Six Essential Jewelry Pieces for Fall

This fall, clothes are minimally adorned, colors are somber and the look is decidedly sleek. Sounds dull, but for us jewelry lovers, this is great news. Austere clothes are the perfect backdrop for big, bold, lively jewelry.

One tip: When accessorizing fall?s looks with adventurous jewelry, remember to wear one standout piece at a time; you don?t want to overwhelm the rest of your outfit and create a look of intense busyness. Rather, the goal here is to emphasize one knockout piece at a time. Which piece to choose? That depends on your style, your budget, your outfit and your tastes. To get you started, here are the top jewelry trends that came down the runway for fall 2006. Pick up a piece or two?or pull them out of your jewelry box and polish them up?and get ready to have a little accessorizing fun.

Bold gold chains: For the moment, forget shiny, candy-like beads and last season?s jumbled, multi-layered look. Today, it?s all about one or two long gold chains with oversize links. The hottest gold necklaces have big, interlocking loops, or big loops interspersed on chains, sort of like a Tin Cup necklace with gold circles rather than pearls. Toss one on over your tunic/legging combo, your mini-dress, or pair a gold necklace with one of the season?s hot men?s suits or military jackets that are so popular right now.

Pearls: I know what you?re thinking, pearls are not bold. Not worn the traditional way, they aren?t. But freshen up this jewelry staple (bonus, you probably already own a strand or two) and make it modern by tying your pearl strand in a loose knot before putting it on. This makes it bold and interesting. Alternately, thread a cocktail ring, big class ring or statement-making brooch onto your pearl necklace. An enhancer, which is a piece of jewelry made for the purpose of accessorizing your pearl necklace, is another attractive option. Clip one onto your pearl strand to create instant attention.

Cuffs: Put away your charm bracelets and bangles for now?extra-wide cuff bracelets are crisp and modern. Hammered gold cuffs are in: tons of celebrities are sporting this trend on the red carpet. Also hot are any wide, stretchy color cuff bracelets made with stones like aventurine and carnelian. Wood cuffs are stylish too. One caveat: Because they?re so bold, be sure to tone down the rest of your look. Wear your cuff alone with pushed up sleeves or over a skinny sweater or tunic, and be sure to remove your watch and any other distracting jewelry.

Drop and other dangle earrings: Oversize earrings like chandeliers, hoops, and dangles are in this season, and look gorgeously bold with short hair or an updo, or tantalizingly seductive hidden in long hair. Especially hot right now are pear-shaped drops of precious stones, as are white pearl drops around one and a half to two inches in length. Splurge a little on these?you?ll be able to wear them over and over.

Oversize cocktail rings: A favorite of this fashion writer, attention-getting gobs of sapphire, pearl, and citrine set in gold are all the rage right now. In fact, at the New York jewelry show, you could not walk ten feet without being tempted to pick up yet another oversize cocktail ring; the gorgeous baubles were everywhere. The look is not fussy: diamonds, CZs and other adornments should be kept to a minimum and the stone itself should get all the attention. Square cuts are modern, but oval rings and round rings are pleasing too. As with other bold accessories, be sure not to overdo this look. One big ring will suffice (wearing multiple rings on multiple fingers is so juvenile). Scale back the rest of your jewelry as well.

Skull jewelry and basic black: Interestingly, jewelry designs with skulls are all the rage this season. Very rock and roll and hard core (Steven Tyler is a fan), skulls likely won?t have much staying power, so don?t spend too much money on any one skull piece. To get the edgy look with a minimum investment, try skull dangle earrings or a skull pendant necklace. Not a fan of the skull jewelry fad but still want a rock and roll edge? Try black jewelry. Black is back, and this season it?s done in a big, bold way that screams sophisticated rock and roll. Try a jumbo black pearl necklace or black pearl dangle earrings. (Black freshwater pearls, though dyed, are very affordable.) Another option is a strand of demure white pearls tied with a wide black ribbon for a sexy contrast. Still other choices are an oversize black beaded bracelet or onyx dangle earrings. A giant black cross, black leather cuff or oversize onyx cocktail ring are also ways to get in on this trend.

Got enough fashion information to keep you busier than Jessica Alba?s stylist? Thought so! Just remember a few simple rules and you?ll be fine: When choosing jewelry, spend more on classic pieces that stand the test of time, like bangles, pearl necklaces, gold dangle earrings, tank watches, diamond studs, pearl studs and the like. Save on trendier pieces like oversize beaded necklaces, skull jewelry, and giant cocktail rings. And when going with a bold piece, tone the other stuff down and let the statement-maker do all the talking.

The jewelry she wears may vary.

For example, her daytime jewelry may be different from the jewelry she wears when she goes out or to formal occasions.

Step 2 - Knowing the color and size of the jewelry she wears:

Now that you have noticed the type of jewelry that she likes, it?s time to look closely at the details of her jewelry style.

The first thing you should check is if she likes White gold, Yellow gold or Rose gold.

You should also check if she prefers conservative or flashy jewelry.

For example, her earrings. Are they small and conservative like studs or are the big and detailed like chandelier or hoop earrings.

Step 3 - Knowing her ring size (if you are buying a ring):

Knowing her ring size makes her ring perfect for many reasons, one of which is the fact that she can wear her ring right away.

Another reason is saving the hassle of having the ring resized.

Step 4 - Learning about diamonds:

Learning about diamonds will help you choose and understand the quality and prices of diamonds.
Learning about the Four C?s will help you understand- Color, Clarity, Carat and Cut, and choose the perfect diamond.

Step 5 - Begin shopping:

Earring and ring sets, Jewelry set in sterling silver. This traditional jewelry of India is worn by city women as casual wear. These are every day use jewelry items and young women find them casual yet very stylish and wear them within their home or outside. Silver jewelry sets are also very popular as informal and friendly party wear.

Ear ornaments are a charming enhancement to a woman's appearance. However a somewhat less known fact is that their function goes well beyond mere ornament. Ear ornaments provide their wearer the benefits of acupressure. Ear ornaments are also deeply connected with amorous play between lovers. Silver is considered to possess the alchemic properties of coolness against that of heat generated by gold. In other words, silver jewelry is supposed to have a cooling effect on the wearers metabolism, whereas those of gold are believed to heat up the body. Silver jewelry of India reflects an enormous array of techniques, patterns, motifs, as well as beliefs and practices of the micro cultural regions to which they respectively belong. Flowers and foliage, fruits and berries, birds and animals commonly found in the surroundings of each region have been instrumental in providing design inspiration to the local silversmiths.

A Jewelry Style All Your Own...Gemstone Necklaces by Fifi La Roux

Jewelry can be bland and predictable, expand your horizons and find the designer that makes people stop you in your tracks to ask, "where did you get that??!!"

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be the first to start a trend or buy things that would ultimately be part of my very own signature style. Whether it's perfume, furniture, my workout clothes (I have over one hundred bandannas that interchange), my dishes, the color of my house (giallo-chiaro), the beer I drink, etc...as a happily married mother of four, my preferences for the unique and different is at an all time high.
I first discovered jewelry designer Fifi La Roux a few months ago at a jewelry store while on vacation in Virginia Beach. I remember the woman who sold me my first necklace saying that soon enough, everyone will know and want Fifi La Roux necklaces. That was enough for me to not only buy one ready made, but to keep in touch with the sales executive because I was told I had the option to work with a Fifi La Roux design consultant so I can make my very own unique piece that would not be reproduced. My mouth dropped open, this is the best case scenario! So, I figured I finally had to share my secret. What does it matter, I will always have the option of sending my design consultant a picture of my favorite dress so we can create a brand new necklace, especially for me, specifically for my special night.

Fashion Jewelry

How much importance do you attach to a piece of jewelry? Is it a means of investment for you, an heirloom that you will pass on to your next generation, an aesthetic piece that you wear to make yourself look attractive no matter what its value is? Or, are you a fashion-conscious person who likes to wear what's "in"? If the last reason defines your preference, then you are fond of what is popularly called "Fashion Jewelry".

Beautiful designs and affordable prices, a special something to wear with your favorite dress--these are what fashion jewelry is all about. You definitely would not want to spend too much money on something that won't be in style the next season. Obviously, a piece of expensive jewelry cannot be as easily discarded as a cardigan that is no longer in vogue. That explains why jewelry trends usually involve metals such as bronze, brass, silver, antiqued metals and even wood--something that most people can afford to buy.

Every season has its own fashion statement. Necklaces may be "out" one season and "in" the next season. This season, it seems to be the long, multilayered necklaces that will make you stand out. Nothing discreet please; bold is in, and the bigger the better. Try a multilayered bead necklace with a long, flowing skirt, and you are bound to be showered with compliments. The same rule applies to your hand jewelry. Match your beaded necklace with a bangle covered with beads, wire or even colorful fabric. And how can we forget the most important accessory of all, the earrings! Long, linear hanging earrings (not the chandeliers that were "in" last season), with colorful stones look great on most women. Finger rings, brooches and pins--everything in bold and chunky styles and you are all set for this season.

Religious Jewelry

Divine aesthetics is how one might define religious jewelry, if asked to do so. Jewelry has a symbolic significance in many cultures around the world. It is the symbol of faith, devotion and a love of spirituality. Nowadays, however, religious jewelry has added many other facets to its basic nature. Worn for fashion, aesthetics and style, religious jewelry has its own enviable position in the wide market of jewelry. After all, divinity mingled with elegance and class is a tempting combination.

Fine religious jewelry crafted out of immaculately chosen precious stones and metals is a way of flaunting your sense of spirituality in a classy fashion. It can be gifted to a friend as a sign that you wish that God may always be with the person who wears this symbol of faith. Or it may be given to someone to whom you wish to show your unchanging faith and devotion. It is also an ideal gift for an older relative or a grandparent, who would value it as a symbol of spirituality.

If you have a symbol in mind for the piece of religious jewelry that you wish to buy, be sure that you will be able to procure it. Sellers of religious jewelry have all possible symbols of religious faith available in pendants, rings, necklaces, brooches, earrings and bracelets. From the most popular symbol of the Cross (Crucifix) to the figurine of Ganesha, the very well known Indian God of prosperity, the variety is as baffling as that of fashion jewelry. The wearer of a multi-faith religious jewelry shows his inclination for religious tolerance and world peace. So, you may choose between Christian jewelry, and multi-faith jewelry such as religious symbols of Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism and various other world religions. Next time you wish to add another piece to your collection of jewelry, buy one that may also bring you contentment, with beauty.

Wholesale sterling silver jewelry Insider Secrets

Have you seen similar silver jewelry sold at price difference of two to three times from different retailers? Have you ever wondered how retailers mark up the jewelry after they get them from the venders? Here we will show you the wholesale trading secrets of sterling silver jewelry.

Price per gram
The most important piece of information for determining the price of a piece of sterling silver jewelry is the price per gram of the silver. This is the fundamental raw material cost of a piece of sterling silver jewelry due to the fact that silver is considered a precious metal. For instance, the price for silver is $9.5 per ounce, the price per gram is determined by dividing the price per ounce by 31.5, which is 30 cents. Therefore, the cost for the raw material for a 5 gram wedding band ring is roughly $1.5. Some might wonder why people would pay $30 for a silver wedding ring when the silver only cost $1.5. The followings will explain the difference.

Labor cost
To turn raw material into finished goods, it involves a great deal of processing cost. The metal itself has to be melted, molded and cast, polished and assembled. Most of the times, silver jewelry is accented with various stones, the costs for setting the stones are also a major part of the total cost for jewelry, especially for jewelry that requires high level of craftsmanship.

Other materials
Also, the costs for any additional material are added to the jewelry. For instance, a pair silver pearl dangle earrings that has two cultural fresh water pearls with rhodium finish should cost double the price of the silver to make because of the cost of the pearl and rhodium. Note that rhodium is even more expensive than silver itself and it is high tarnish resistant.

Shipping cost
Many styles of jewelry are imported from other countries because of difference in availability of raw materials such as stones and also the specialties in making some particular styles. Hence the shipping cost of transporting is also part of the cost. Usually, for imported sterling silver jewelry, the shipping cost can amount to 10% of what it costs to make the jewelry themselves.

Custom Duties
For the same reasons, imported jewelry incurs duties at the custom. This is a cost that normal consumers are not aware of but it can also increase the price of sterling silver jewelry for 5% to 10%.

Price fluctuations
Some sterling silver jewelry trader, especially wholesaler would associate the price of the jewelry with the current silver price. Therefore, the price of a piece of sterling silver jewelry might be different from month to month, and even day to day in the case of wholesale.

Business Overhead
Just like any other business, the sales have to cover also the overhead of running the business. Normal overhead costs are employees' salaries, rent, utilities and breakage.

Profit
Of course, the price you pay includes the profit for the sellers.

By knowing the above facts, you can make much more informed decisions when buying wholesale sterling silver jewelry and most importantly, avoid scams. There are occasions when people make fake silver jewelry and sell them at a very low price. If you know how to determine the cost of a piece of silver jewelry, you won't buy into deals where they offer you a price that is lower than the normal cost of real sterling silver jewelry.
