History of Hawaiian Heirloom Jewelry

In the 19th century, Prince Albert of the United Kingdom passed away. Liliuokalani, the last queen of Hawaii Dynasty, whom has a close friendship with the British Royal Family created a gold bangle that has “HO’OMANAO’MAU” engraved in black enamel, which she wore her entire life in memorial of him. The engraved message meant ‘A Lasting Remembrance’, and this is how the birth of Hawaiian Heirloom Jewelry came about.

Hawaiian Jewelry has now became the cultural representative of Hawaii to gift it to someone special or for special occasions such as birthdays, graduations and weddings. It is considered an honour to receive such a precious, and personalized gift. Heirloom Jewelry will last a lifetime, and is often passed from generation to generation.

Diamonds certified from Gemological Institute of America (GIA)

2016/05/24
category：United Square

Diamonds are distinguished according to the principle of the four C’s (Cut, Carat, Colour and Clarity). The “Cut” refers to the shape of the diamond. The diamonds are cut into different shapes according to the shape of the originally mined rough stone in order to maximise the weight recovery. Some of the best-known example are Round Brilliant.

At this point it should be noted that the shape of a diamond can also be referred to as its “cut”, like a round or princess cut. However, this should not be confused with the more commonly used term of diamond cut, which describes how well the diamond has been polished from the raw material.

The “Carat” refers to the weight of the diamond and NOT the size. Each weight has a preferred set of proportions which optimises the beauty and fire of the diamond. This is discussed in more depth later in the article.

The “Colour” is represented by a letter of the alphabet which describes different ranges of colour from D (Colourless) to Q/R (Tinted yellow). You will then get Yellow Cape and Fancy Yellow. The rarest are the colourless and fancy colours (Blue, Pink, Red).

The “Clarity” refers to the amount of imperfections or simply blemishes present in the diamond. The clarity range includes internally flawless (IF), Very Very Slightly Included (VVS1 and VVS2), Very Slightly Included (VS1 and VS2), Slightly Included (SI1, SI2 and SI3) and Included (I1, I2 and I3). The “IF” will have zero internal inclusions, the “VVS” stones will have minute inclusion that are very difficult to spot under magnification, the “VS” stones will have small inclusions that are difficult to spot under magnification, the “SI”(slightly included) stones have inclusions that can be relatively easily seen under magnification but usually undetectable with the naked eye and finally, the “Included”(I1,I2and I3) stones are those with inclusions that can be seen with the naked eye.

GET WHAT YOU’RE PAYING FOR!

The 4Cs are globally recognised as the accepted standard for grading diamonds. The problem arises where sellers manipulate the qualifying rarity to sell diamonds at a higher price. This is not to say that every diamond is sold under false pretences but naturally, when dealing with products of this value and nature, it is highly important to trust the dealer and to make sure that he or she is reputable.

Another important aspect is certification. When buying a diamond over 0.30 Carats, the buyer should be encourage on purchasing a GIA certified diamond(Gemological Institute of America). This certificate will confirm the features of the diamond so that the buyer is in actual fact getting what he or she is paying for.

In VENUS TEARS, we let our customers truly understand a diamond’s unique qualities, you must look beyond the 4 Cs and discover that Pièce de résistance and last but not least, our current promotion include 50% discount off of many GIA certified rings and necklace!

category：AMK hub

Platinum is an extremely rare metal – 30times rarer than gold. It is this rarity that makes it such an exclusive item and so special, durable and particularly when formed into a beautiful ring..

Platinum is only found in a few location across the globe,with most platinum coming from South Africa,Canada and Columbia. It is much heavier and more durable than pure gold (24 karat), which tends to scratch very easily and is rarely for jewelleries. 18 karat gold – the most commonly used standard of gold for jewellery- contains 75% pure gold, whereas platinum jewellery, is usually 85-95% pure platinum. Platinum jewellery tends to be up to 60% heavier than that of an equal piece of gold. This combined with the rarity of platinum, makes it more expensive than gold. This combined with the rarity of platinum, makes it more expensive than gold but it also means that it holds its value and is considered to be the most precious of metals.

Platinum’s scarcity makes it highly desirsble and its unique feel and bright lustre ensures its position as a luxury item across the world.

Above of this , is a very elegant 1.0ct diamond flower ring design with 16’s of diamonds. It’s with 6 claw and the flower are similar with sakura design. The medium of the ring still have 3 diamonds to turn out the design of this ring are not only flower itself. Durable Platinum and the real diamond are combine together it’s perfect match !
