How You Can Take Care of Your Cubic Zirconia Jewelery

By: Cebza Maseko

When cubic zirconia is set in gold or sterling silver, it can be worn everyday without any damaging effects. Of course the exceptions are as follows.

Make a habit of having your cubic zirconia jewelry checked routinely by a jeweler. He or She will check for any loose settings and will give your cubic zirconia jewelry a cleaning better than you can do yourself.

Set a regular time to clean your cubic zirconia jewelry. The more often it is cleaned the better it will look. All jewelry will dull a certain amount when it is exposed to body oils, dirt, soap and hand cream. They will create a solid build up, which can be difficult to remove.

We all get business with various projects and responsibilities, so it is not uncommon for the cleaning of our jewelry to slip through the cracks. Have you caught yourself at the last minute of getting ready taking a couple of minutes to clean your jewelry before you put them on to go out for the evening? All jewelry requires regular cleaning and proper care to maintain their beauty. So, set aside one day a week, every two weeks, or every month to attend to the cleaning of all your jewelry. You will be amazed at the results, and you won't have to worry about what condition they will be in when you choose them to wear for a special occasion.

Cubic zirconia jewelry compared to diamonds jewelry

The price is not the only reason some people are no longer gravitating away from diamond jewelry. There are the issues of the so called "blood diamonds" with the disturbing rumors of forced child labor and several other horrible human atrocities and cruelties. Well-know celebrities have brought it to the attention of Americans by the refusal to wear diamonds on the "red carpet" and have chosen to wear cubic zirconia stones in all their jewelry adornments for the "Oscar's" and other highly notable celebrity gatherings.

Just recently introduced into the US jewelry market is the Diamond Nexus. The Diamond Nexus is a result of a new scientific processing technique. They are an excellent replacement stone for the mined diamond. They possess all the qualities of a diamond from the hardness to the brilliance and fire. They are only used in precious metal settings and are priced fairly reasonably at $79 a carat.

The Russian cubic zirconias are barely visible when compared to diamonds by experts. The experts must use advanced gemological tools to discern the differences between the Russian cubic zirconia and a diamond. Because the Russian cubic zirconia has more diffusion with light than a diamond, they have a profusion of fire and brilliance.

The next time you go shopping for jewelry, ask about the cubic zirconia jewelry. You may be able to look at some of the quality cubic zirconia jewelry I have seen evidence of online. I would hate to think the only cubic zirconia jewelry in stores is cheaply made cubic zirconia jewelry. I think the cubic zirconia is a beautiful stone. The cubic zirconia even looks good in when it is placed in a gold plated setting, but personally I don't believe those settings do the cubic zirconia justice.
