Turquoise Jewelry

Whether purchased or inherited, turquoise jewelry is both an investment and a heirloom. To safeguard them both, it is important to provide proper care and storage.Without proper care, turquoise can become discolored and potentially damaged. To prevent that from happening, here are some tips to help preserve, protect, and clean turquoise jewelry.

Turquoise jewelry has a long history. Ancient folklore tells us that not only does turquoise jewelry possess the power to spice up any outfit, but it is also said to possess healing and protective powers. For centuries people from various cultures around the world have believed that turquoise has the ability to attract luck, love, and money. As a matter of fact, 13th century Persian traders frequently wore turquoise jewelry in an attempt to harness the protective powers of the gemstone. Now whether you choose to believe the folklore or not, you can't deny that there's something uniquely special about wearing a piece of the sky.

Turquoise jewelry has the ability to add whimsy to a casual outfit, and when paired with other gemstones, it adds a hint of earthy elegance to formal wear. So it comes as no surprise that in recent years the understated gem has found its way back onto the fashion industry's radar. However, no matter what the current fashion trends may be, if you pull it off right, turquoise jewelry is always chic. Turquoise necklaces have even been discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs dating back to 3500 B.C. Thousands of years of fashion prominence can't be wrong - turquoise jewelry truly is timeless.

As you know turquoise jewelry is made of turquoise.But do you know the formation of turquoise . Turquoise forms when water percolates through rocks that contain copper, aluminum and other minerals. A chemical reaction takes place that results in deposits of what we know as turquoise. That's a simplified way of describing a process that takes millions of years and only happens when a complex set of conditions come together.

Since turquoise is so valuable,we should take good care of them .I want to share some common turquoise treatments with you.

 

 Stabilized Turquoise

An epoxy resin or other substance is infused into the pores of the turquoise. No longer porous, its color remains the same over time. Natural turquoise develops a lovely patina as its worn and absorbs oils from our skin.

Stabilization allows designers to use poorer-quality turquoise that might otherwise not be suitable for jewelry.

Color Treatments

Chemicals are used to enhance or change the color of turquoise.

Other Turquoise Treatments

Other techniques are used to turn soft, porous turquoise into a usable product. Watch out for terms like reconstituted, which describes turquoise chips that have been mixed with resin then molded into shapes.

Most of the turquoise found in today's jewelry has been treated or enhanced in some way, and there's nothing wrong with that as long as you know it is treated and pay a suitable price for it. If jewelry designers had to rely on only high quality, natural stones, high prices would prohibit many of us from owning any turquoise at all.

Crystal and Gemstone Jewelry

Women choose to wear gemstone jewelry for many reasons. Perhaps the most obvious among them is how beautiful the pieces can be, made with stones of any or every color of the rainbow.Some people believe the gemstones also have properties beyond what we can see, however, and wear jewelry featuring gemstones which are supposed to bring positive forces into their lives.

Obviously there are any number of skeptics who think that crystal power, astrology, tarot, totems, and any other related mystical/spiritual ideas are just imaginary. Others argue that any positive effect that comes from crystals only comes because you've adjusted your expectations when you believe that crystals can help you, and you actually do all the work to change yourself. Others believe that crystals will work their subtle magic no matter what you believe--so it's a good thing that crystals are only used for good, and are supposed to be positive and healing in many different ways.

Gemstone Jewelries are affordable .Another great thing about gemstones is that there's usually enough variation in quality among stones that you can find one that suits any budget. Take amethysts, for example: a flawless amethyst with a beautiful rich purple color, perfectly faceted by an expert jeweler, can cost thousands of dollars and be placed alongside diamonds in a stunning platinum setting. However, technically flawed amethysts can still be stunning. They may have a more solid or milky appearance, or have tiny white striations making interesting patterns in the stone; this makes them a lot cheaper, but they are still versatile and attractive enough to set in beautiful silver settings.

If you like dangling earrings, you can find striking chandelier and drop styles featuring precious and semi-precious gemstones. If you like a funky or artsy look, you can find chunky styles set in silver, and get bright splashes of color from relatively inexpensive garnet, peridot, or topaz stones. If you want something a little more understated and sophisticated, you can always look to amethysts, rubies, emeralds, and sapphires set in gold, white gold, or platinum.

Akoya Pearl Necklaces

Akoya pearl necklaces are incredibly versatile. Akoya pearls, which are the classic saltwater pearls, look stunning with an evening gown or cocktail dress. They look very sexy with a low-cut neckline. Akoya pearl necklaces look smart, polished and pretty with a business suit. They can also add warmth and femininity to a simple sweater.

Making the Casual Seem Exceptional:

In fact, pearls have the power to transform casual outfits, in my opinion. A woman who wears a different colored cashmere pullover with a pair of pants or even jeans every single day will be thought of as the best-dressed woman on her block if she always pairs the sweater with a aloya pearl necklace. This simple look exudes confidence, warmth and polish. Plus, it's just so fabulously comfortable!

My grandmother never went for pants suits or dresses. She never dressed like an old lady, even when she was in her 90s. She would simply wear a cashmere crew neck sweater in a bold shade like ruby red or forest green, pair it with a plain old pair of black slacks, and top it off with a princess length single strand Akoya pearl necklace. She always looked fabulous.

Simplicity is a virtue. It's as true in fashion as it is in life. Keep it simple, and keep it quality. If pearls seem too tame for your wilder tastes, consider a triple strand or longer length necklace. A rope length strand of Akoya pearls is perhaps the most dramatic piece of jewelry a woman could ever wear.

Akoya Pearl Bracelet

 

Having truly graceful hands is almost a lost art. Sure, plenty of us get manicures, and rings certainly haven't fallen out of favor. However, the slow, almost theatrically poised gestures women made in the past have all but died away. You can see them in black and white movies, and that's about it.

Bracelets and Old-Fashioned Glamour
If that poise, glamour, and old-fashioned grace appeal to you, why not practice the lost art yourself? As a first step, I recommend putting on a beautiful, simple Akoya pearl bracelet. Now, I love all kinds of bracelets, from beaten gold cuffs to stacked silver bangles, but nothing makes me feel as gracious and poised as a pearl bracelet. There is something about the way the bracelet sits on the wrist and touches the top of the hand that just feels absolutely fabulous

If you have pretty hands, this is a great way to draw attention to them. Pearl bracelets also look incredible against a variety of skin tones. If you have pale skin, pearls will imbue it with a hint of ivory and rose. You'll look fair, not pale. If you have tan skin, pearls will make it look golden. If you have dark skin, pearls will create a gorgeous, eye-catching contrast.

So many women seem to desire fancy rings. In my opinion, bracelets bring much more elegance to a woman's hands. In fact, too many rings just clutter up the hands. You don't want to look like you've put on every piece of jewelry you ever bought, after all. A simple bracelet or two, paired with one or two rings, is the perfect recipe for bringing appreciative glances to pretty hands.
