Show Your Commitment Through Promise Rings For most, it is not always easy to make and keep promises. Whether it is a promise of romance and friendship, or a dedication to faith, it takes immense will power and conscientiousness to be able to sustain a vow. Moreover, it can also be difficult for the receivers of these promises to trust and rely onto such words, in fear that they may get their heart broken in the end.

People who lived in 16th Century England exchanged rings that are

The Beauty of White Gold White Gold jewelry – we have all seen it, we have heard all about it.

Can Synthetic Diamonds Be Better Than The Real Thing? Adam’s Jewelers offers its customers only the highest quality diamonds, each one certified as 100 percent natural. But technology has brought us an alternative, synthetic diamonds are virtually impossible to tell from a natural diamond, and for a less expensive price. Does this sound too good to be true? You just might want to do some homework before deciding, even if you are on a budget. First of all, it is easy to confuse synthetic diamonds with diamond simulants like cubic zirconium (CZ), moissanite, white sapphire, high leaded glass (rhinestones) or Yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG).

Why You Shouldn't Overlook Simple Engagement Rings Some of the most beautiful things in life come in small and simple packages. Simple engagement rings can provide the same elegance as an elaborate ring without necessarily detracting from its meaning or diminishing the value. It does not say less of the person giving it, either. A simple engagement ring can be beautiful and elegant in itself. It speaks of one’s pure intentions. Imagine a beautifully cut diamond in a solitaire setting, or even a sapphire, ruby, or emerald, set in the center of the ring and magnificently held in its place by prongs or even a marvelously crafted bezel. The smooth flow of the metal ring with its sheen naturally flowing and joining with the sparkle of the gemstone produces one magnificent piece of engagement ring.
