Rhinestone Earrings

Earrings with rock crystal, pure as a drop of water, look fresh and noble. It is no coincidence that there is another name for this stone: Arabian or Bohemian diamond. In ancient times, people believed that crystal minerals are pieces of ice frozen forever.

Natural stones can vary in size from a few millimeters to two meters. A natural mineral is always a little cool, it belongs to semi-precious stones.

To enhance the shine, the crystals are polished and cut. Rock crystal has a high hardness, therefore it is resistant to mechanical damage and to the effects of chemicals. This makes the products easy to care for. There is only one precaution to be observed.

Do not heat the mineral, as cracks may appear on it.

In this case, the stone can be cleaned with any detergent. And to check the naturalness, it is enough to hold a sharp object over it. Scratches will appear on fake glass, while natural crystal will remain intact.

It is said that the mineral endows the mistress with a little magical properties. It is no coincidence that psychics and magicians use crystal balls. It is believed that the stone gives a person the gift of clairvoyance, as it is able to accumulate information.

In order for positive energy to work favorably, accumulate and transfer to you, wear earrings only in a good mood.

Rhinestone earrings can be made both in gold and silver.A silver frame looks more harmonious with such a cold stone, but there are also successful solutions for a gold frame. Aged silver effect or blackened options are an additional decoration of the stone, which gives the feeling of an ancient treasure.

Not everyone knows, but earrings with an uncut stone look original. The mineral looks beautiful without any additional processing. Outwardly, one gets the impression that the crystal is covered with frost.

Also, in addition to transparent minerals, there are specimens with needle-like inclusions. They, like hairs, penetrate the stone through and through, which is why in the 19th century the romantic name for such crystal appeared - "Hair of Venus".

Blotches resembling a heart were especially appreciated. Now such jewelry can be found in stores under a more prosaic name: hairy quartz. Often they use a smooth cabochon cut for it, so that the landscape drawing inside is better visible.

Crystal is used to make any kind of jewelry. These can be studs, drop earrings, fashionable ear cuffs, rings or so-called chandelier earrings.

The choice of rhinestone earrings should be determined by your color type and face shape. For a warm type of appearance, products with a gold frame are preferable. If you are a representative of the cold color type, then it is better to choose silver.

Depending on the shape of the face, the following recommendations can be made:

• Oval. It is believed that absolutely any model is suitable for this form. You can safely experiment, considering only the color of the frame.
• A round face will be decorated with hanging thin or medium-sized earrings, but in no case rings or studs in the form of balls.
• Square. Holders of this shape should pay attention to the inverted triangle dangle earrings, as well as to the chain earrings.
• Rectangular. Hanging, elongated diamond-shaped models or classic-shaped droplets are suitable for this type. The main thing is that the design of the earrings does not repeat the shape of the face.
• All round and oval shapes are suitable for the triangular type - from rings to stud balls.

As for the horoscope, rhinestone is considered universal. To one degree or another, it is suitable for all signs of the zodiac. Crystal jewelry can be a powerful talisman that brings happiness in life for Gemini, Aquarius or Virgo.

Since the transparent color of the mineral is combined with any shades in appearance or in clothes, then in the choice it is enough to focus on the appropriateness of the jewelry model.

Often crystal in jewelry is combined with other semi-precious and precious stones. Such sophisticated design models are well suited for attending social events or, for example, a date. Mineral, pure as a tear, is an excellent solution for creating a delicate, wedding look.

For everyday outings, you can choose neat rock crystal studs or short dangling drop earrings. And to emphasize the originality of your image in ethnic or boho style, you can give preference to a model with a rough stone. Also, the uncut mineral fits perfectly into the grunge, military or safari style.

Let's take an example of two versatile looks that can be created using rhinestone earrings.

• Decoration of the bride's dress. Here, the sophisticated earrings are combined with the soft texture of the cape fur and the hairstyle for a luxe, feminine look. The result is a worthy alternative to diamonds.

• Office or city option.The set for the classic style of trousers and blouses was matched with neat jewelry with silver, which has an almost matte surface. Thanks to small stones and general restraint in execution, accessories look elegant, being the highlight of the whole look.

In conclusion, I would like to note that a pleasant advantage of rock crystal is its affordability and excellent appearance of a cut stone. The color of the stone is versatile, so this is another great reason to get a couple of "magic" jewelry. And let them become a guide for happy moments ready to enter your life!
