Gold ring with and without stones
Ring of gold - a versatile decoration. Gold is suitable for any occasion, it can be worn at almost any age. The main thing is that such a ring with or without stones is appropriate for the situation and the status of the owner.
Features and advantages of metal
Gold is a noble and precious metal. Its high cost is due to the fact that it is not easy to get it, and gold is found far from everywhere. But the “nobility” of the metal is its chemical properties. Gold does not react with most other chemicals, including oxygen (does not oxidize), so gold products retain their original appearance for a long time. It is the only metal in nature that initially has a beautiful yellow color.
By itself, gold is quite soft, so for the manufacture of jewelry used various alloys (with copper, silver, etc.). The amount of "pure" gold in the product shows the sample. For example, sample 585 means that 1000 grams of this alloy contains 585 grams of gold and 415 grams of impurities. The highest standard used to make jewelry is the 999th or 985th. However, in stores such products are extremely rare. Usually the most expensive specimens on the shelves - 750th sample.
To suit
Gold can be worn by all! Usually, the first “serious” jewelry is presented to girls at the age of 16-17 years, and receiving a gold ring from parents on the day of majority is a good tradition in Russia.
Based on the rules of etiquette, wear gold rings should be as follows:
- Young girls better choose thin and air rings. Older women are more massive and noticeable. For women in age allowed large rings with large stones.
- A large ring can also be worn by a young girl, but it should be part of an image, for example, for a gala evening. To create an extravagant bow fit rings with stones of abstract shape.
- For women over the age of 50, it is best to choose gold rings with round, square, and any other “regular” shape stones.
If you believe in astrology, you should consider that gold is considered a symbol of the sun. It awakens power, authority, and, of course, attracts another gold. All this is a “masculine” quality, therefore it is constantly recommended to wear gold rings to Lions, Tauruses and Aries (masculine signs). For water marks (Scorpio, Pisces, Cancer) - it is preferable to choose white gold or silver. All other signs can be worn gold from time to time.
Varieties
With precious and semiprecious stones
The names of all the stones are difficult to remember, so most often we focus on the color of the insert.
Black stones are mysterious and carry a mystical hue. Such decorations are suitable for passionate natures. Most often black stones are ornamental: onyx, hematite, black jasper. They can be seen in silver frames. But in gold there are precious stones - black opal, black diamond (diamond) and black pearl. They all look luxurious: the trend for wedding rings with black diamonds is gaining popularity.

White stones, of course, "best friends of girls." Diamonds on the rings are appropriate anytime, anywhere, but you should pay attention to size. For daily wear it is necessary to limit a modest ring with small inserts.
Zircon can also be transparent (white), and the most inexpensive option is cubic zirconia, an artificially grown stone, which in appearance often is not inferior to natural.

If we talk about the shape and size of the stone, the ring with a large stone is a noticeable accessory that should be perfectly combined with clothes. You should not choose the color of the stone exactly under the shade of the dress or suit - let the ring be a bright accent. It is worth remembering that girls with wide palms is better to choose an oval, elongated stone. The round stone will suit the owners of elegant thin fingers. If the palm is small, and the fingers are short and plump, it is better not to risk it and wear miniature rings.
Rings with a square stone look best on long fingers — middle and index fingers.
If you decide to wear a large and noticeable ring, play high: it is better to wear it on the right hand.
No inserts
Gold rings without inserts are more versatile - they can be worn not only for evening events, but also for work, business meetings, going to visit, etc.
Thin rings are perfect for wearing every day. They do not attract much attention to themselves, do not catch the eye of high prices, but they perfectly emphasize the beauty of fingers. Thin gold rings can be quite simple, and can have a rather interesting design. This is a good option for very young girls.

A sufficiently large openwork ring, for example, in the form of a ring, will look no less luxurious than the version with a stone, therefore its “way out” is evening. This accessory always looks like a stylized antique, which means you need to carefully consider your outfit.
Solid gold rings without inserts look extravagant and are well suited for creating bold images. Best of all, they look on thin, long fingers, playing on the contrast.
A business dress code permits only wearing a wedding ring.If the profession and the situation at work allow, you can dilute the "tutor" a simple ring without stones of medium width. It is best to wear rings on different hands. It is desirable that both accessories are made of the same metal.
Original
Golden Ring - a way of expression. The accessory of the original design will tell a lot about who carries it and who presented it. Now you can’t surprise anyone with interlaced hands or cute children's palms on the rings: jewelers create completely unthinkable, often fun ornaments for the fingers.

Original content in classic form: a ring with opal looks like current volcanic lava. This ring will emphasize the explosive nature and at the same time the mystery of its mistress.
How to choose
When choosing a gold ring, it is important to consider three components: its quality, its size and design, which should suit you. When buying, pay attention to:
- Sample and imennik (symbol of the country in which the jewelry is made). These marks should be clearly visible on the back of the ring. Each jewelry store has a magnifying glass, with the help of which you can examine everything in detail.
- Availability of seal and certificate from the manufacturer. It is best to purchase products of famous factories that value their name.
- Comfort. Best of all, of course, try on a ring before buying. It should be measured on the finger on which you plan to wear it. The ring should be freely put on and removed, while not falling from the hand. Be sure to try to spread your fingers, cross them, bend. The decoration should not cause discomfort.
- Appearance. The ring should not have visible scuffs and scratches (and again a magnifying glass to help you!). Stones should be securely fastened.
What to wear
The rules of etiquette do not recommend wearing more than three jewelry at the same time. That is, if you put on a gold ring, earrings will be enough. As an option - two rings on different hands and earrings. Or rings and gold chain.
The image looks complete when the earrings and ring are complete. Most jewelry that is available for sale, go to the counter with jewelry factories. Therefore, to pick up a "companion" to the existing earrings or rings is not difficult, products are made according to similar sketches.
You should not try to combine products from different metals - it looks tasteless. In addition, decorations should be similar in style and mood. For example, an extravagant skull ring can not be combined with leaf-earrings or angel wings, etc.
As for clothing, the main recommendation - the ring should match the style and situation. If in doubt, choosing between two different rings, choose a more modest option - never lose.
Cost of
The price of gold rings strongly depends on the price of gold. In addition, a very important alloy, the presence of stones, the complexity of the product and, of course, the brand.

There is no “ceiling” for jewelry prices. After all, jewelry is often the most direct reflection of a person’s wealth.
Care
To make the golden ring delight with its brilliance as long as possible, you must follow simple rules:
- Be sure to remove the decorations at home. Although gold does not come into contact with other substances, it will definitely not benefit from contact with hard tap water, soap and household chemicals.
- To preserve the brilliance of the wedding ring, which we usually wear all the time, cleaning should be done with rubber gloves. It is also useful for the skin of hands.
