The Glitter of Diamond Cut Gold Jewelry

I've heard it said that all that glitters isn't gold. This might be true, but I wonder if the quote would have been different if this person would have had the opportunity to wear some diamond cut gold jewelry.

There is nothing like the look of light hitting diamond cut gold jewelry. I remember the first time that I saw a diamond cut gold piece. It was a fourteen carat gold necklace with matching earrings. I was in the shopping mode and wanted something unique. There it was, the perfect piece starting up at me from the case.

At first glance, a piece of gold jewelry that has been diamond cut may appear to have gemstones in it. In fact a true, quality piece of diamond cut jewelry is actually cut to mimic the way light plays of diamonds or other cut stones. They are designed to have the look of expensive diamond jewelry without the price, all the glitter at a fraction of the cost.

Gold jewelry has a rich tone to it to begin with. When you add the diamond cuts you are often just enhancing its beauty. Diamond cuts also enhance the beauty of white gold jewelry and silver jewelry. The facets cut into the gold, when done by a professional jeweler, are cut in such a way to refract light no matter which way the jewelry is turned.

Beware of diamond cut jewelry that is poorly cut. These pieces often appear dull and the cuts are uneven (some large and some small) making the jewelry look cheap. It is best to buy diamond cut jewelry in person or from a reputable dealer to avoid making a bad purchase.

If you want a piece of jewelry with some sparkle, but don't want the expensive price that comes with diamond jewelry, look for diamond cut jewelry. Necklaces, earring, bracelets and other items can all be diamond cut. All that glitters might not be gold, but diamond cut gold has a lot of glitter to give.
