Necklaces are one of the fondest pieces of
jewelry worn by people all over the world. Typically, it is a piece of jewelry
worn around the neck, frequently formed from metal chains, with a locket or a
pendant as an attachment.
Many people have a particular interest in the
type of necklaces that contain rocks or gemstones of different shapes and
sizes. One such example is the Black Diamond Necklace.
Black Diamonds
Black diamonds are the blood brothers of those
dazzling and brilliant diamonds. The only difference is that they are black and
don't shine and sparkle as much as their brothers do. As they are black, they
absorb light instead of refracting it.
Mind you, though, they are as real as those
brilliant diamonds. What makes them very different is their crystalline
structure. A "regular" diamond's crystalline structure is made like
windows: light comes in, is refracted in and bounced out giving that dazzling,
shining effect. Black diamonds, on the other hand, have what they call a
"polycrystalline " structure, which is a less organized crystalline
structure, or to put it simply, similar to hundreds of diamonds smashed
together. Since the insides of black diamonds have no "windows" so to
speak, light is not bounced off and instead just gets absorbed.
Although initially believed to be a
non-appealing stone, the rate of the popularity of black diamonds has been
skyrocketing recently as it has been a favorite of many jewelers. Black diamonds
look perfect with their jet-black color alongside shimmering diamonds, or a
glossy silver layering. The perfect and most favored pieces of jewelry adored
with these diamonds are the Black Diamond Necklaces.
Black diamonds are real diamonds, and with
their rarity, to receive one is to receive that high level of being
acknowledged as luxurious or, for a person, highly important. It has been the
perfect gift for classy women, and men have never been wrong when they gave
their women diamonds - especially the rare kinds.
The Necklaces
Throughout time, the fashion scene has always
been in sync with the color black. Black dresses, black bags, black boots -
even underwear looks good when it's black. Recently, the kickoff from main
jewelry companies of their patented black diamond necklaces and jewelry
showcased the final addition to the world of fashion.
These jewelry moguls have presented necklaces
and other pieces of jewelry adorned with the magical and alluring black
diamonds. The interest and allure of black diamonds began being seen during the
'90s and have recently been renewed with more vigor as we see celebrities
flaunting their black diamond jewelry on the red carpet.
Various types of black diamond necklaces are
available online and in jewelry stores: small drop necklaces, ribbon necklaces,
wish bone necklaces, and collarets . These are but a few of the readily
available designs of black diamond necklaces you can see in jewelry stores.
With enough creativity (from both the buyer and the jeweler) and cash, one can
create the most suited and most sophisticated black diamond necklace that will
fit perfectly in a woman's neck.
Today, as the fashion line between men and
women goes ever thinner, the availability of diamond necklaces and other
jewelry has been made available for men, as well. Men may choose to obtain some
classy "blink" adorned with small to large pieces of black diamond in
them. Some men who wear dog tags enjoy adorning them with black diamonds, as
well.
