Jewelry is one of
the most important accessories that are worn all over the world in all the
races and cultures. The use of rhinestone as precious metal dates back to
centuries. Rhinestone has always been a woman’s dream that has always been
adored and loved by all the women in the world. Not only among the women, vintage
owl blue rhinestone necklace has also been famous among the men and they
wear it in various forms.
Similarly as we see in Russia
numerous exhibitions are held throughout the year in which the designers
exhibit their recent collections and art. Rhinestones of all colors are studded
in different intricate patterns to make the most beautiful collections. The
jewelry in Russia
is a mixture of eastern and western trends, with eastern beauty and western
modernization. However there is still a trend of wearing heavy jewelry though
beauty and color remain a specialty.
The owl
blue rhinestone necklaces are particularly a darling among the women. In Russia , vintage
retro chains are particularly famous. Pendants within looped gold settings may
be adored with stones and glass pearls. Topaz is the commonly worn precious
stones and gives an awful grace to the neck in which it is worn. This year an
owl pendant also became very famous. Chains come in different designs. Some are
rather heavy and expensive. Many people also like wearing simple ones.
Color is the most
obvious and attractive
feature of rhinestones. A colored rhinestone is sought after by many
especially for its great charm, rarity or aesthetics. Although color plays a
very important role in determining the value of a rhinestone, many other factors
influence its price such as market supply, rarity and popularity of a stone.
The same original material can display different colors. For example ruby and
sapphire have identical chemical composition but exhibit different colors. Even
the same rhinestone occurs in many different colors. For example, sapphires
show different shades of blue and pink and fancy sapphires exhibit a whole
range of other colors from yellow to orange-pink.
Rhinestones are often treated to enrich the color and enhance the clarity of
the stone. Depending on the type and extent of treatment, they can add to the
luster of the stone.
Heat treatment can largely improve the color and clarity of the gemstone. Both
the lighter and the darker blue shades of Topaz are radiated to change the
color from white to blue. Most greened quartz is also irradiated to achieve the
yellow-green color. Emeralds containing natural fissures are sometimes filled
with wax or oil to disguise them. Turquoise is also commonly treated in a
similar fashion. Fracture filling has been in use with different gemstones such
as diamonds, emeralds and sapphires thus dramatically improving the appearance.
