Sight Silver

Silver cubic zirconia jewelry is one of the most prevalent pieces in the market today. Not only are these a tad more affordable than their diamond counterpart, but silver in itself is very versatile and can be braided, sculpted, and woven to create intricate bodily décors that really stand out. Additionally, gold may be a staple in most jewelry stores but silver is becoming en vogue among the younger generation. Silver can be mixed and matched with almost any clothes and apparel without giving off that formal or heavy weight to the look. If you are looking for a few silver cubic zirconia jewelry pieces to add to your set, here are some tips on how to get those really eye-popping ones.

1. As always, budget plays a critical role in choosing your silver cubic zirconia jewelry. If you have a large budget, you can set your sights on sterling silver pieces. However, if you budget is on a tighter string, you can still have a great selection off the plated silver pieces. You can also have a design specially made and crafted for you from a number of jewelry makers who accept special orders. This way, you can have a unique design on your own.

2. Go for the uniquely shaped cubic zirconia gemstones. More often than not, people look at the gems first when it comes to gemmed jewelry. This is especially true for pieces that seem to have larger "rocks." Since you are choosing from a selection of cubic zirconia gems anyway, try focusing your attention on the more uniquely shaped gemstones instead. Lager rocks may call attention to the piece, but those that are uniquely shaped usually get that second and more intense looks. Heart shaped and teardrop shaped cubic zirconia pieces are the top favorites.

3. Go for color. Colored cubic zirconia is no longer uncommon. Many manufacturers are trying to recreate the fact that true diamonds are rarely colorless. There are now great selections of colored cubic zirconia in tinges of blue, green, pink and yellow. If you can get a matching set of jewelry of the same color, then you would have an eye-popping collection indeed.

4. Choose pieces that have a combination of materials. The gemstone need not always be the center of attention for any gemmed jewelry. Some of the really great pieces have one or more "stars" (tiny gems) peppered on the metal pieces. However, for some really striking designs, you might want a combination of materials on your jewelry. You can either have your cubic zirconia gem mixed with other gemstones; or you can have your different colored cubic zirconia stars peppered along the length of the actual jewelry. The same is true when it comes to the metal used for the jewelry. You can choose from various combinations like plated silver with plated gold; or platinum with sterling silver; or sterling silver with gold and platinum.

5. Choosing pieces with intricate metalwork, Braided, sculpted and woven jewelry are the ones that have the most intricate designs when it comes to the actual metals being used. Braided and woven jewelry works especially well if these have combinations of metals or gemstones in it. Sculpted jewelry can stand on its own with only one kind of metal and only one kind of gemstone.
