People who live in the Atlanta area are always in the market for high-quality and designer jewelry, including a collection of designer diamond wedding bands. Here is a sampling of the types of jewelry and precious stones available.
Gemstones
One of the hardest substances found on earth, polished diamonds are also among the most beautiful and sought-after. Choose diamonds that are certified by the GIA and EGL, which attests to their high quality. You can also choose fancy or colored diamonds. The highest quality fancy diamond can be even more rare and more expensive than the familiar white diamond.
Sapphires and rubies are both types of corundum, but while sapphires can be many colors, rubies are always shades of red with the most prized being a shade called pigeon’s blood. Some of the best sapphires are a deep, velvety blue, though ironically a salmon-pink sapphire called the Padparadscha is considered one of the most valuable and rare. Both rubies and sapphires are excellent choices for custom-made wedding rings.
Designer Jewelry
You may long for a one-of-a-kind, custom-designed ring for your wedding or engagement but may fear that it is way too costly. This doesn’t have to be the case. Rings, even the most ornate can be created through the modern technology of the computer and the ancient technique of lost wax casting. The process only takes between two and four weeks depending on how complex the ring is and the time of year you need it.
