Designer Jewellery

Designer jewellery is an important part of a woman's wardrobe. Necklaces, earrings, bracelets and more are essential compliments to a variety of looks. But these pieces can become dirty and dulled with time. Follow a few simple procedures to keep your jewellery in good shape and looking great. Below is a list of five types of designer jewellery and what makes them special.

Contemporary Designer Jewellery
There are so many styles of jewellery that are currently popular. Antique jewellery is well suited to a vintage look, while chunky silver and black leather cuffs work with a rock and roll image. In the necklace department, women have been wearing a lot of long, thin chains, usually with a pendant- or sometimes a few at the bottom. These necklaces fall nicely between the breasts and can really elongate a woman's torso.

 Designer Pearl Jewellery
There is nothing more classic or feminine then a beautiful string of pearls. For an Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's look, try putting on many strings of various lengths. Pearls are also a lovely piece to combine with other stones. Their light colouring makes them easy to pair with everything from coral to deep reds and blues. Pearl bangles can add a glamorous element to a rough denim, punky look.

 Handmade designer jewellery
There's nothing worse then choosing a beautiful piece of jewellery and seeing someone else wearing it. Jewellery is meant to be personal, and in many ways, gains more value for being unique. Handmade jewellery doesn't necessarily guarantee that it's a one-of-a-kind, but it does increase the odds. Moreover, jewellery made by hand generally has a more rustic look, as opposed to a manufactured one. If this is to your taste, it can be quite beautiful.
Designer Costume Jewellery
Searching for costume jewellery is like sifting through the contents of a treasure box. These pieces are fun, usually oversized, and not for every day. They are the items that you find in your grandmother's drawer, or at a flea market. You saw something, you didn't know where you were going to wear it, but you knew that you had to own it, so you bought it. Which is perfect because now you have a ball or dress up party to go to and that big red rose broach, or funky choker will go perfectly with your outfit! Have fun with costume jewellery- that's what it's there for.

 Luxury Designer Jewellers
We've all heard of Van Cleef & Arpels, Bvlgari, Cartier and Oscar Heyman. They are the best of the best. Their designs are immaculate- perfectly encrusted in diamonds, gold, pearls, and platinum. The pieces that come from luxury jewellery designers tend to be timeless. They build simplicity and elegance into everything that they make. Even their statement pieces- the wide cuffs and elaborate earings- will still be in style in a hundred years time.

Pearl Jewellery Collection


Pearl jewellery is a must have for all ladies. They can do great things for an outfit. Pearl jewellery is something that women cannot and should not live without. Pearls and jewellery go well together in any type of setting. No matter what the setting, pearls are always an elegant addition to any collection. There are two types of pearls - Freshwater and Saltwater. Freshwater pearls can be found in those that live in lakes, rivers and other bodies of fresh water. Saltwater pearls come from oysters in volcanic atolls or protected lagoons. There are also two different types of pearls - Natural and Cultured. A natural type is naturally created and a cultured pearl is created.

There are several primary reasons or ways to wear pearl Collection Jewellery .

First, a piece of beautiful finery made of smooth mollusks shells is absolutely timeless. A necklace, bracelet or earrings will make any outfit look fantastic. The great thing is that these pieces will never go out of style. Pearl jewellery looks amazing with polos, khakis, cable knit sweaters, cardigans, leather purses, top-siders and flats and never looks dated or old or tacky or last season. So, it is recommended that you buy a full collection including necklaces, bracelets, earrings and more. One set of finery will keep you looking great for decades. Your new collection will undoubtedly pay for itself through all its uses. All your friends, family and colleagues will adore your new accessories. They'll all want to borrow your stylish pieces. Don't you want to be the envy of others? If so, mollusk accessories are a classic way to achieve this goal.

There are eight different types of shapes when dealing with pearls: round, button, circled, drop, pear, semi-round, oval and baroque. There are many different colours of pearl jewellery: white, green, black, purple, pink, champagne and blue are some of the colours. When you are speaking about pearl necklaces, there are many different descriptions of the length of these necklaces. A collar measures 10-13 inches. A rope is 45 inches in length. Opera length is 28-35 inches; a pearl choker is 14-16 inches, princess length is 17- 19 inches. A matinee length is 20-24 inches in length.

There are plenty of websites that provide pearl jewellery. I know one such kind of website which is very famous for pearl jewellery, known as Gemini London.  There are many gorgeous pieces available at extremely affordable prices. Most sites have a money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the product.
