Cubic Zirconia – A Girl’s Second Best Friend
CZ jewelry is as beautiful as diamond jewelry and a girl cannot have enough of both. CZ or Cubic Zirconia is a man- made gemstone with most of the characteristics of diamond and only the trained eye can tell the difference. The major difference is in the weight; a zirconia will weigh more than a diamond of the same size. There are various qualities available in this stone so if you love CZ solitaire rings and are thinking about buying one remember the four main factors of carat, clarity, color and cut. Quality is based on these factors so if you want the best then you will want a five star AAAAA CZ which is the shiniest faux diamond.
Cubic Zirconia is not only beautiful but affordable too as it costs only a fraction of what a diamond costs. Cubic Zirconia is used to make all kinds of jewelry from rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, pendants and the list can go on. CZ jewelry is available in silver, gold, and platinum and even steel. This variety gives you more options especially when looking for CZ solitaire rings on a tight budget. Cubic Zirconia crystals has been used since 1937 and today the stone is created in a laboratory under temperatures as high as 5000 degrees Fahrenheit to make it look as close to the diamond as possible.
