Is Faux Diamond Jewellery Worth it?
By April | July 22, 2007
Are you one of those people who still think that faux diamond jewellery is cheap and nasty and the bands turn your finger green. That may have been the case years ago but faux diamond jewellery has come a long way since then.
A number of companies are now producing faux diamonds with the same spectacular qualities of a real diamond. They have the same characteristics - all the way down to the cut and clarity.
The similarities between a real and a faux diamond are so slim, in many cases only a professional jeweller can tell the difference. So you’ll be pleased to know that faux diamonds have the same expensive look to them, but they’re really cheaper in price.
The cost of faux diamond jewellery is not as cheap as the £20 rings we used to see. Actually, some of the imitation diamonds cost more than the cheapest real diamonds you see available. There are some advantages to owning imitation diamond jewellery.
Wearing real diamond jewellery can be quite a responsibility, how many women have lost a ring when doing the dishes? Faux diamonds are much cheaper so looking after them doesn’t have to be quite the burden. There’s no need to worry about getting them insured either.
Real or Fake?
Faux diamonds can also be worn proudly for any occasion you want. No one will be able to notice the difference. In fact, there have been many brides who unknowingly got married with faux diamonds, only to have their husband confess and surprise them with the “real thing” on a wedding anniversary!
You can show off your faux diamonds with confidence. There’s no harm in letting family and friends think you own the real thing. Unless they’re a professional jeweller, they’ll never know the difference.
How have faux diamonds changed? The days of the green finger are over because they no longer use cheap imitation metal for most of the rings. Faux diamond jewellery is most often made with real gold or high quality silver.
Forget about the days when cubic zirconium meant junk jewellery that you would waste your money on. Move into the modern day where now it means fine quality imitation diamonds sold at a price everyone can afford.
