A white gold charm bracelet which carries bolt on or permanent decorative white gold charms, can signify important events in the wearer’s life, such as the birth of a child or a noteworthy birthday. Silver and white gold charm bracelets have been worn since prehistoric times; and the fashion has endured as more and more women discovered the beauty of gold and silver charm bracelets.

Charm bracelets have been the subject of several waves of trends: In ancient Egypt gold charms on bracelets were symbols of faith and luck and indentified an individual to the Gods in the Afterlife.

Silver charm bracelets were also worn in the dark ages to represent family origin, religious and political convictions. Queen Victoria wore gold charm bracelets that started a fashion among the European noble classes in the Nineteenth century. And in the 1950s and early 1960s, American teenagers collected silver and white gold charms for bracelets to record the events in their lives.

The fashion for white gold and silver charm bracelets diminished in the latter part of the 20th century, but there was a resurgence of popularity after 2000 when vintage gold charm bracelets became highly collectible. And following the movie “Pirates of the Caribbean” the height of fashion in winter 2006 were silver bracelets with little charms of swords, crosses and skulls!

There are two principal types of charm bracelets. These are the traditional style, in which the gold or silver charms dangle enticingly from the links of the silver or gold chain, and the ‘Italian’ gold charm bracelet in which the flat charms are interspersed between, and integral to, the links of the gold or silver chain.

Some women may collect gold and silver charms to solder or bolt onto a charm bracelet simply because they enjoy the attractive jangling sound they make on the wrist. However, women have collected silver and gold charms for charm bracelets for centuries because individual charms on the bracelet are personal, often and associated with life events.

For this reason, a 14k white gold charm bracelet can be purchased without the charms, ready for you to attach your own charms to any of the links on the gold bracelet to create a personalized piece of fine jewelry that portrays your own interests, style and personalit. For many, the completed 14k white gold charm bracelet is like wearing a life-story on the wrist.

Many gold and silver charm bracelets are passed down from mother to daughter as coming of age, or as family heirloom pieces. Sterling silver charm bracelets are stronger and more affordable than gold charm bracelets. However, white gold charm bracelets are ever popular and are often easier to find. For this reason we are pleased to offer our choice of silver charm bracelets as well as gold charm bracelets.

Rose gold, also called pink gold or red gold, is a mixture of pure yellow gold with a higher percentage of copper alloy and lower percentage of silver alloy compared to other colors of gold. Rose gold jewelry has a subtle, delicate color that can intensify with age due to an attractive tarnishing of the copper alloy content.

The percentage of copper defines the level of red in rose gold. As with other gold colors, 18k rose gold is 75% gold and 25% copper; 14k rose gold is 41.5% copper to 58.5% gold. The difference in the copper to gold mixes of different gold qualities means that rose gold jewelry pieces may not match exactly. Deeper, more reddish rose gold pieces are likely to contain higher copper quantities and be found in 9k or 10k rose gold, whilst the pinker hues are likely to be in 18k rose gold.

Although copper is a comparatively cheap alloy, rose gold jewelry is not cheaper than other colors of gold jewelry. This is because its relative rarity makes it very collectible and allows premium prices to be charged. Indeed a particular piece of rose gold jewelry may have to be specially “commissioned”; something which obviously attracts a premium price.

Because of its pinkish tones, rose gold has traditionally been used in fine jewelry for discerning women because it makes a piece of jewelry individual and out of the ordinary. Rose gold is predominantly suited to warm skin tones; redheads and strawberry blondes looking particularly stunning in rose gold jewelry. However, rose gold also warms up any skin tone and imparts a healthy glow especially next to the face.

However the same pinkish red hue which makes rose gold jewelry a perfect choice for women also makes it a less popular choice for men’s jewelry. Nonetheless current trends mean that rose gold accents are increasingly found in men’s two tone gold and tri-color gold jewelry.

Rose gold is rarely found in children’s jewelry because of its relative expense compared to white gold and yellow gold.

Rose gold is being used in new ways in gold jewelry making. Rose gold is also being increasingly used to highlight the individual beauty of diamonds and precious gemstones to spectacular effects. Diamonds and other gemstones which are traditionally set into white gold or yellow gold are increasingly also being set into rose gold rings. Rose gold diamond rings have become a must have purchase for adding to a fine jewelry collection.

Fine diamond jewelry reflects the splendour of nature at its most enduring, is universally given to women on special occasions.  Although traditionally bought by men, women are increasingly choosing to buy diamonds online for their own collection of fine diamond jewelry. Buying diamonds online is made easy by EHJewels.  We bring the highest quality fine diamond jewelry at outstanding prices together in one place so that you can relax when you choose to buy diamonds online.

Natural diamonds form over billions of years deep within the Earth’s crust under high temperatures and pressures. However, only a tiny percentage of all diamonds mined are good enough to be made into fine diamond jewelry. Diamonds are uniquely precious gemstones and fine diamond jewelry classically symbolises timeless, enduring love.

The word “diamond” comes from the Greek “adamas” meaning “unconquerable love”. Celebrated in the song, “Diamond’s Are Forever”, they are the hardest substance known to mankind. All this makes fine diamond jewelry the perfect special occasion gift, especially for people born in April: diamonds are April’s Birthstone.

Fine diamonds are graded by color, cut, carat weight and clarity.

Colorless and near colorless diamonds, are rare, highly prized and comparatively expensive. However, to the untrained eye, most diamonds appear as white as the most expensive diamonds. This makes slightly “off white” tinted diamonds excellent value when set into fine diamond jewelry. Natural diamonds falling outside the normal color range are called “fancies” and, like the truly colorless diamonds, command high prices.

The “cut” of a diamond describes the manner in which a diamond has been shaped and polished to reflect and refract light to reveal the fire and brilliance so characteristic of fine diamonds in jewelry. A diamond’s cut is extremely difficult to judge quantitatively and many factors must be considered to ensure the rough crystal yields the best quality and carat weight of final diamond gemstone. Indeed a well-cut diamond can appear to be of greater carat weight, and have greater clarity and better color than it actually does.

In 1919, Tolkowsky, mathematically calculated the ideal cut for a diamond to maximise brilliance (white light reflections), fire (flashes of color) and scintillation (patterns of light and dark).when viewed from above. This became known as the brilliant or round cut. However, not all diamond roughs lend themselves to the brilliant cut.

“Fancy cuts” used in fine diamond jewelry include the baguette, marquise, princess, heart, briolette (a form of the rose cut), pear and emerald cut. Cuts are also influenced by fashion: the baguette cut accentuates a diamond’s lustre but downplays its fire and was popular in fine diamond jewelry during the Art Deco period. Conversely, princess cuts accentuate fire, not lustre, and are currently very popular. The princess cut also results in the least crystal waste.

A diamond’s “carat” describes its weight, rather than size, although larger diamonds obviously have higher carat weights. Since 1907, one carat has been defined as 0.2g (200mg), and also as 100 points. The value of a diamond increases exponentially with carat weight, because larger diamonds are a lot rarer and more desirable for use as gemstones in fine diamond jewelry. Larger carat diamonds may be more expensive but often have less desirable clarity and color when compared to smaller diamonds.

“Clarity” is a measure internal gemstone defects, called inclusions, or flaws. These are tiny natural irregularities within the body of the gem. Flawless diamonds, without surface or internal flaws, are the rarest, most beautiful and most expensive gemstones. However, most gemstones contain inclusions to some extent, although these may only be seen under 10x magnifications. These diamonds are high enough quality to be use in fine diamond jewelry.

Where inclusions do not detract from a gemstone’s beauty (e.g. colored diamonds), inclusions are not only acceptable but in fact act as testimony to the gemstone’s natural (rather than man-made) authenticity.

Sterling silver, vermeil, rhodium and gold can all be incorporated into Murano glass jewelry designs. Murano Glass jewelry is made from a wide range of colors of Murano Glass beads.

In the case gold and silver beads, the 24k gold foil or silver foil respectively, is layered onto a color glass center and heat sealed with clear, high quality crystal like glass, creating a very distinct Venetian Murano Glass beads or Murano pearls. The beads are then covered by threads of colored glass, or “fili” and may be put into a further mould. The use of 24k gold foil creates a dazzling effect in the resultant Murano Glass jewelry.
