Women's gold rings are the undisputed bestseller in jewelry stores. And this is not surprising, because they can complement both a luxurious and everyday look, decorate the fingers of young and mature women of different incomes. Years go by, fashion changes, but gold stays out of time and out of competition.
Ring history
People in Ancient Egypt began to decorate their fingers with rings. They were worn only by nobles. The ring on the index finger spoke of the high position of the owner. Gold rings later became popular in ancient Rome. The rich wore rings with seals that indicated belonging to a noble family. Jewelers also make items with hiding places in which even poison could be hidden.
Today, prices for women's gold rings are much lower than for products made of platinum group metals. But how to choose your own ring?
Who does not fit gold rings?
Gold is a metal that gives good luck and makes its owner attractive. However, it has a beneficial effect only on those who live a calm and measured life. Women living in megacities and leading an active lifestyle experience constant stress, and gold is an additional irritant for them. As a result, this leads to prolonged depression.
In addition, scientists recently shared new research. Gold rings can cause significant harm to men's health if worn continuously. This is due to the oxidation of the metal, which enters the body and becomes a cause of disruption of the reproductive system. At the same time, constant wearing of a gold ring will not hurt women, as they are better protected from external negative factors.
Why not wear gold and silver at the same time?
Aesthetes believe that wearing two precious metals at the same time is a sign of bad taste. Nevertheless, modern fashion does not believe that women should be limited in their choice of jewelry. Today we can wear what we like, without any doubt.
And bio-energetics agree that silver and gold have different energies, one might even say the opposite. Silver gives the owner peace and harmony, and gold brings activity and excitement to his life. Therefore, wearing them together is strongly discouraged.
What kind of rings are there?
Jewelers distinguish between two main types:
Complex ones have voluminous, protruding inserts and elements of ornate decoration. Large stones, gilding, silvering, blackening, filigree give the product an elegant intricacy.
Simple rings have a smooth shape. But this does not mean that they are boring. The surface of the product can be decorated with engraving, perforation, openwork weaving. A small scattering of stones is allowed.
What kind of rings are there? Mount form
- Blind tack. The stone is held from all sides by a metal frame, as if hugging it. One of the most reliable. The disadvantage is that the stone is partially hidden by metal.
- Krapanovy tack. It consists of "legs" holding the stone on four sides. Good in that it allows him to play with all the colors. Sometimes leaves puffs on clothes.
- The Pave fastener is the recesses drilled in the metal into which the stones are inserted. Usually this technique is used for scattering of small precious stones. A very complex technique that requires the talent of a master.
- Corner tacking is used when it is necessary to place stones not in castes, but in metal. In metal, a niche for fixing stones is made in advance. The technique is very complicated. Jewelers recommend purchasing products with this mount only in trusted stores.
- Channel tack is one of the most beautiful. The technique is to make channels of precious metal into which stones are neatly placed, one after the other. The ends of the fixation channel are sealed.
- And, finally, an elegant, but impractical fastening technique is glue. It is suitable for pearls and complex stones. The insert is placed in a pre-made niche and secured with a special adhesive. The disadvantage is that the stone can be lost, since it is not fixed very securely.
