Accessories are an important part of making any outfit take on the attitude one wishes to convey. A simple black dress can be perfect for a classy affair, appropriate for a funeral, a great look for the office or become the ultimate party attire all based on things like hair style, jewelry, shoes and scarves. Adding a pair of rhinestone earrings can make the whole ensemble complete.
This is an accessory that can be extremely versatile. Depending on size, design and color, they can be very simple and understated or they may become quite the showstoppers. Whether in the form of studs, hoops, dangles or a more unique design, this type of jewelry has been used throughout the ages to accentuate the ears.
Rhinestones are an integral part of many accessories. Some of them are so finely crafted that they can be made into a near perfect reproduction of practically any gemstone known to exist, or they may be fashioned into something completely unique. This level of versatility allows a jeweler more leeway in creative designs.
These stones can be constructed from a couple of different substances such as plastic, paste, crystal and glass. Each medium has its own list of advantages and disadvantages. The versatility in materials means that the range of products produced are appropriate for individuals in all age groups and of many style preferences.
Those products of the lowest quality are the ones constructed of paste or plastic. Their primary purposes are as play jewelry for children, pieces for craft projects and for other situations that do not necessarily call for a look of authenticity. Because neither of these materials have any light refracting properties, the gems may have a vibrant hue, though they will not put forth any real sparkle.
Stones made from glass fall into the middle range in most aspects, including clarity, color, quality and price. They hold color very well, do not break or scratch as easily as their paste or plastic counterparts, and though they also have no refractive properties, adding a metallic backing backing to this type of gem will give a it a bit more sparkle. This type is popular in costume jewelry and advanced crafts.
The highest quality products of this type are created from lead crystals and when properly cut, can resemble genuine gemstones so closely that the average person may have a hard time telling the difference. This material actually does have the ability to refract light and can produce a rather impressive sparkle. These pieces may cost a bit more than the alternatives, but they provide the illusion of authenticity at a considerably more affordable price.
Regardless of the type of stone one prefers to use, the range of design possibilities is virtually endless. Whether the gems are used to accent another material or if they function as the focal point of the piece, they can easily bring an outfit together for a finished look. Because of the various substances used to create them, there are products that will fit most any budget, complement the full gamut of fashion preferences and satisfy even the most those with high quality expectations.
