Jewelry (also spelled as Jewellery and Jewelery) are ornaments like necklace, rings, earrings, bracelets, bangles, toe rings, etc. made of different precious metals like gold, silver, platinum and also from precious and semi-precious stones like pearls, gemstones, diamonds, etc.

Jewelry is the one of the oldest form of body ornament. Earlier jewelry was made from natural materials, such as bones, animal teeth, shells, wood and carved stones. These days beads are frequently used in jewelry. Beaded Jewellery commonly encompass necklaces, bracelets, earrings, belts, and rings and the beads can be both large or small.

Around the world, the demand of gold jewelry is on the rise and so are the prices. This form of jewelry looks beautiful and the Jewellers are coming up with new mesmerizing exquisite designs every day. For making gold jewelry, gold has to be mixed with other metals in required proportions to make it malleable and durable, as the purest form of gold that is 24 carats is very soft and cannot be used for making jewelry.

Gold jewelry used in India are available in 22 kt gold, 21 kt gold, 18 kt gold with purity of 91.6%,. 87.5% and 75% respectively.

Other types of jewelry that are catering to fashion conscious people from across the globe includes artificial jewelry, costume jewelry, fashion and imitation jewelry, pearl jewelry, gemstone jewelry, imitation and antique jewelry.

In India, export of gems and jewelery items during April – May 2008 has registered a growth of over 25%, in terms of rupees, as compared to same period last year. The growth of the gems and jewelery industry is commendable considering the fact that the rupee gained over the US dollar for most part of the year.

So where should one go to buy jewelry? Well, you can buy from your nearest jeweler’s store or get on to the internet and search for sites selling jewelry, but make sure you buy hallmark jewelry as hallmarking certifies that the jewelry conforms to national & international standards of purity.

In India, the BIS i.e. Bureau of Indian Standards undertakes certification of purity of gold jewelry in accordance with Indian Standards IS:1417 Grades of Gold & Gold Alloys.

If you are an importer or a buyer based outside India and have a buying requirement for any form of jewelry from India, you can always log on to site Tradeindia.com

TradeIndia website has a comprehensive database of jewelry exporters from India.

You can search for exporters and manufacturers of any form of jewelry and can contact them directly with your buy requirement. An importer can also post his buy requirement and can respond to offers received.

To help you in finding all kinds of jewelry sellers, exporters and manufacturers from India. There are other company websites also that you can Google easily. But I’m impressed with the companies listed on the TradeIndia.com portal as here you can find many jewelry exporters at a single place. You don’t have to search through the internet.

A word of caution though, while dealing through internet always cross-check the company credentials first before placing an order. As it is always better to be safe than be sorry later!

Henry Schweizer asked:


When choosing a ring for that special someone or to complement your own new look, it’s natural to feel limited to a small range of color options. The metals we’re used to don’t offer a lot of variety. Most rings are gold or silver or slight variations on those colors. Even if you’ve considered titanium rings, the new phenomenon making its way into the market, it’s probable that those you’ve seen will all have had the same muted grayish tone. Brightening up rings with gemstones only does so much when the basic color of the band is the same. What can you do if you want to achieve a really different look?

A little known secret in the jewelery business is that titanium rings can in fact be made in a range of dramatic colors, shades you just wouldn’t expect to see in a metal. This can be done without painting them and without weakening the metal at all. Titanium rings are known for their strength and colored titanium rings are no exception. Colored titanium rings are still very rare, but they’re not particularly expensive to make, so you should find them affordable if you’re able to track them down. They offer so many new options that you can choose or design a colored titanium ring to create a truly unique look.

How are colored titanium rings made? The secret is in the metal itself. Titanium can be oxidized to create a sheen across the surface of the metal. The refractive index of this oxidized layer is such that it can shine in a range of different colors. The secret to which color the metal takes on depends on the arrangement of the oxidized crystals at its surface. Like the metal itself, titanium oxide is hypo-allergenic, so titanium rings made this way won’t lose their famous property of being safe and comfortable for anyone to wear.

Using the oxidizing process, titanium rings can be made in several different shades. Many people admire the subtle bluish-grey tones reminiscent of storm clouds or ultramodern industrial landscapes. These stylish pieces of jewelery retain the understated, sophisticated appearance of classic titanium whilst adding something just a little different to help you make a personal statement. Titanium rings can also be made in a brighter blue color which looks truly unusual and can contrast impressively with gold bands or etchings or carefully chosen gemstones.

Titanium rings are also available in a deep purple twilight shade which complements darker skin or dark clothes; and for a really striking look, you can even obtain titanium rings in black. Black titanium rings retain the shine of classic titanium rings and shimmer with all the colors of the rainbow across their dark surfaces. You can guarantee that rings like this will be noticed and remarked upon. There’s no better way to provide the personal touch than by choosing a colored titanium ring.

Adam Hunter asked:

For those wishing to go into wire jewelery making on whatever level – be it professionally or for pleasure – there are a number of specially designed tools on the market that are designed to make the intricacies of this craft more accessible. Many wire jewelery makers suggest that they wouldn’t go anywhere without a length of silver wire and a pair of round-nosed pliers, but there are continual developments in the tools that can be used to create successful and aesthetically-pleasing pieces of jewelery.

In the past, craftsmen have resorted to marking their round-nosed pliers with marker-pen in order to achieve uniform loops for certain pieces. If looping is integral to your designs, then you might want to consider a pair of stepped pliers, which allow you to repeat circular patterns over and over again, safe in the knowledge that the sizes of the loops will not vary.

Round-nosed pliers are one of the tools that are fundamental to wire jewelery making. Their rounded noses allow a grip on the wire that will not mark, crush or kink it, enabling easy manipulation for intricate movements such as the turning of loops in head and eye pins when making earrings or pendants. Conversely, flat-nosed pliers are used for straightening metal findings and, again, are designed to minimize scratching and damaging.

Side cutters (or diagonal cutters) are also an essential tool, enabling the craftsman to make specific pieces in specific sizes, or add further detail to a piece. Because of the many different gauges of wires there are many types of cutter available. Everyday cutters, used regularly, will eventually chip and blunt, no longer offering the precision and cleanliness of cut that are offered by a new pair or a pair that are designed to cope with particular wires. When working with wire you often need to ensure you get a clean straight cut, and therefore worth investing in a flush or semi flush cutter to avoid crushing the end of your wire.

Before the advancements in the tools of jewelery making, many craftsmen used towels or handkerchiefs on which to lay out beads whilst designing pieces such as necklaces. Unfortunately, these seemingly benign items often caused more problems than they solved: scratching or damaging the beads and occasionally aiding their loss. Now there are bead boards and bead mats, which are made of felt and minimize wear and tear on the jewelery findings, but with enough friction to prevent items such as beads or stones rolling away. For serious jewelery makers, these are almost indispensable now, especially where design work is concerned, allowing the meticulous arrangement of experimental designs to be accomplished.

Most important of all must be the wire itself; nothing would be crafted without it. Jewelery wire is available a range of diameters and densities. The diameter of the wire effects its flexibility e.g. 0.5mm diameters is more flexible than 4.0mm

A wire’s solidity is measured in terms of its ‘hardness’; either ‘dead soft’ or ‘half hard’. Dead soft wire is, as the name suggests, very soft and can be manipulated by hand; its most common uses are for decorating beads and pendants. Half hard wire is more resistant and requires tools to bend and shape it. This wire is the most fundamental wire in wire jewelery making.

As ever, it’s always worth consulting a specialist jewellery making supplier – look online for the best deals on essential materials and equipment.

SusanaGormen asked:

How many times have you looked at a piece of your jewelry and wondered just how it was made. Is the meat carved? How is it created with such fine detail? The methods that are used to create the fine jewelry that you wear use the same technology that lifted civilization from the Iron Age to the Bronze Age.

In fact, many anthropologists theorize that ancient people stumbled onto the idea when molten copper melted out of chunks of copper ore that they had lined their fire pits with. Its called the “lost wax” casting method and its the same method that ancient peoples developed to make copper and bronze axes and tools with.

To create a piece of jewelry using the lost wax method, the piece is first crated in exact detail out of sculpting wax. The wax piece is then encased in plaster and allowed to cure and dry. After the chunk of plaster has been allowed to dry it is then placed in a hot kiln so the wax piece inside of it can melt and burn out.

When it has cooled, the chunk of plaster with the hollow shape of the original wax piece in it is placed in a centrifugal jewelery casting device. The centrifugal caster then spins around and molten gold or silver is forced into the hollow spot in the chunk of plaster by centrifugal force.

After the the metal inside of the plaster has been allowed to cool, the plaster is then chipped away. What is revealed is a whatever was originally encased inside the plaster made of wax, only now it is made out of metal. Even things such as bugs and leaves can be encased in plaster and then reproduced in gold this way as long as they can be burned out in a kiln.

Gary Gao asked:

How often do you dress in jewelry? What piece of jewelry do you wear? Dressing in jewelry is a terrific way to exhibit your style, accent your clothing, and approach wonderful. There are a large number of different types of jewelry. You can pay money for very costly diamonds, gold, silver, and other gemstones, or you could pay money for costume jewelry.

Unless you are very rich, you probably can’t afford to pay money for lots of high priced metals and gemstones which is why you pick up the costume jewelry and maybe a select few expensive pieces for special occasions. Costume jewelry can still be very gorgeous and it has become more popular than ever. It is cheaper and usually very stylish. You can find costume jewelry in multitudes styles also.

Even picking up “the cheap stuff” can be more expensive. If you go to a department store to gain even just a small amount of pieces, it can set you back quite a bit. How do you spend less money on jewelry? One perfect way to save money is to gain wholesale jewelry. This is a amazing way to decrease your spending overall and get more jewelry for your money.

When you buy from jewelry wholesalers, you are in fact gaining in bulk. Have you ever bought at a warehouse store where you purchase in bulk? You can get a huge set of food or goods, and when broken up, cost a lot less. This is the same idea as wholesale. A jewelry manufacturer will find it lower priced to ship you many pieces of jewelry than individual pieces. Storeowners pay money for wholesale in order to gain a profit from store.

If you gain a a large amount of jewelery, each different piece will less costly. If you think you are going to pay money for more jewelry than you would ever need, there is a simple way to emend that. You could shop for jewelry with your friends. You should be surprised at how much lower priced this method can be. You can obtain piles of jewelry at one time for what you would normally pay for a a few pieces of that volume of jewelry.

You can see large numbers of locations to buy from jewelry wholesalers online. You don’t have to be concerned about having a wholesaler where you live which is one more great advantage of the internet. Don’t trash any more time searching through costly jewelry at the store, if you want to add to your jewelry collection, get some friends together and get ready to start shopping!

Swarovski Crystal is very much popular and is named after the renowned Daniel Swarovski.  Swarovski Crystal is especially for the premium class of customers and it is bit expensive. Though expensive it is still a favorite among common masses. In 1892, an automatic cutting machine was invented by Daniel where he makes se of hydroelectricity in order to grind the jewels. Swarovski Crystal gives you wide range of variety to choose from the miniatures to jewelry and home decor like chandeliers. Some of the Swarovski crystal also have a special metallic coating to create a vividly- hued sheen. Also one of the most popular coatings is Aurora Borealis which gives you the rainbow oil slick appearance. This coating can be applied to only one or on all part of the object. And it can be also applied twice, and then it is known as Dorado 2X, AB 2X etc. So the next time you see an AB crystal, then you know that it has been coated with Aurora Borealis. Xilion is the new brand which was launched in the year 2004, its cut was patented and thus added luster to the flat-back and diamond cut rhinestones.

A rhinestone or diamante or paste is a diamond made of acrylic, glass and crystal. It is inspired by the river “Rhine” in Austria and it is sometimes known as Austrian Crystal. It became popular in the year 1775 under the name of French jeweler George Fredric Stras. He came up with the idea metallic coatings which would store the reflection in the crystal and this crystal would be clearer. It is also known as “Stras” in many European languages. Thus the rhinestone was created.

Beads and rhinestones are also the specialty for this company and thus it also sells them to the manufacturers and artist who utilizes them in their designs. Jewelers who make Tiaras or jewelery crafters also like to beautify it with these magnificent crystals.

Rhinestone is used everywhere and is used by everyone whether in wedding tiaras or on the head of Vegas showgirl headdresses. Everyone just loved the way they look and is quite inspired with them. Rhinestone is the nearest imitation of diamond and some of the scientist has even brought a lustrous shine in it as the diamond do.

A website was launched by the company in the year 2007 under the name of crystallized.com and thus gave a platform to the manufacturers and designers who are in the world of jewelery, fashion, interiors and accessory. A new product brand was launched under the brand name of Crystallized-Swarovski which gives you variety of crystals of different shapes, sizes and colors. This brand will give you the assurance of quality and purity and thus you can feel satisfied with this brand.

Today still the chief share of rhinestone is with Swarovski in Austria followed by Czech Republic. Other competitors are Bohemian Glasswork is a tough competitor. These crystals are very premium and exclusive and are worth spending some extra amount from your pocket.

But in order to keep them new you have to take some measures and thus guard them from getting destroyed. Don’t keep rhinestone face to face as it can lead to a scratch. Place a tissue in between these two tissues. Q-tip is excellent for polishing rhinestone and it is dipped in rubbing alcohol. Don’t use water as it will discolor your rhinestone or crystal.

Swarovski crystal has teamed up with Philips and launched Active crystals for the consumers. Bluetooth wireless earpieces were launched in the year 2008 with some crystal for their decoration.
