SILVER CUBIC ZIRCONIA OPEN CIRCLE NECKLACE
Christine Alexander Fine Jewellery
This teeny-tiny circle necklace is made of Sterling Silver. It makes a great necklace for everyday wear or for an event where you need a little sparkle, but not too much.
This circle necklace comprises the Cubic Zirconia charm pendant (size 7mm x 11mm including jewelled bale) and an 18" Sterling Silver Trace Chain.
A matching pair of stud earrings and a bracelet are available also.
Don’t get me wrong, I am partial to Diamonds. However, Cubic Zirconia is similar to Diamond in brilliance and clarity but is flawless. It is made in laboratories in large quantities and as such is much more affordable and in many cases, ethical... It is almost as hard as Diamond at 8.5 on the Mohs Scale in comparison to a Diamond's 10. It is not a Diamond though it has many Diamond-like qualities. Isn’t it time that we stop lusting after the Diamonds we will have "one day" and rock something just as beautiful until that day arrives? Why not?!
Care should be taken with trace chains; they are delicate, not designed to hold a weighty pendant and can stretch and break if pulled. Where they are part of the design of a piece they have been stress tested to ensure suitability; other items should not be added to these fine necklaces, or do so at your own risk.
