Alright, folks, let's talk about corundum! 💎💍
First things first, this gem is tough as nails, coming in second only to diamond on the hardness scale. So, what does that mean for you? It means you can give it a good cleaning without too much fuss, just make sure you follow the manufacturer's advice. Easy peasy, right? 🛁✨
Now, if you've got a ruby that's got a lot going on inside, like inclusions or fractures, treat it with a bit more TLC. Get yourself a bowl of warm, soapy water, grab a soft brush (not the one you use for scrubbing the dishes, mind you), and give it a gentle hand wash. Think of it as a spa day for your gem. Ahh, luxury! 🧖♀️💅
And here's a fun tidbit: rubies are the birthstone for all you July babies out there! 🎂🎉 Plus, they're the stars of the show for two major marriage milestones, the 15th and 40th anniversaries. So, if you're looking for that perfect gift to celebrate your love, consider a ruby. It's like wearing your heart on your sleeve, or in this case, on your necklace! 💖
Alright, let's dive into the world of White Gold! 🌟👑
So, White Gold is like the chameleon of the jewellery world. It's not just pure Gold; it's Gold hanging out with some other metals, like nickel, Silver, or Palladium. And here's the thing, depending on which buddies Gold invites to the party and how much of each metal they bring, White Gold can take on different shades. 🎨
The term "White Gold" gets thrown around a lot in the jewellery biz, but it's kinda like the word "white" itself – it covers a whole bunch of colours. Think pale yellow, slightly brownish, or even a hint of rose. 🌼🍂🌷
Now, when it comes to the exact mix of metals, there are a couple of recipes. One is the Gold–Palladium–Silver combo, and the other is Gold–Nickel–Copper–Zinc. But here's a little heads-up: some folks might be sensitive to nickel, especially if they wear it for a long time. It's like that one friend who's great at parties but can get on your nerves if they stick around too much. 😅
Now, if you're wondering about the Gold itself, it's rarely pure Gold. Even before its White Gold makeover, it often had a touch of something else in it, like a mercury alloy. And guess what? That can cause some people to have an allergic reaction. Ouch! 🤧
But no worries, when I get my White Gold from the EU, it usually leans more towards the Gold–Palladium–Silver mix. And for any vintage pieces or preloved gems, I give 'em a makeover with a splash of Rhodium. That keeps them looking fresh and shiny. 💍✨
And here's a pro tip: avoid taking your White Gold jewellery for a swim, especially in pools with lots of chlorine. Chlorine can be a bit of a buzzkill and speed up the fading of that Rhodium plating. Nobody wants that! 😎💧
So there you have it, White Gold, a bit of a mix but still a star in the jewellery world! ⭐✨
