Ziamond
From LoveToKnow EngagementRings
For decades, cubic zirconia has endured a reputation as a low quality, low value imitation diamond, but Ziamond, a world leader in exquisitely pure cubic zirconia, is changing that misconception.
About Ziamond
As a company, Ziamond endorses the right of high quality cubic zirconia to be considered a gemstone rather than a diamond knock-off. Both reproductions of popular designer pieces as well as exclusive designs are offered, and the artificial gems are set into precious metals including 14 and 18 karat gold as well as platinum to emphasize their high quality. The company carefully observes trends in contemporary and popular styles in order to deliver sought after pieces, yet the extreme focus on intricate details ensures that the quality of the jewelry is not sacrificed.
In total, more than 1,500 jewelry pieces are available through this manufacturer, including pendants, earrings, bracelets, and loose stones, each one exquisitely manufactured with both attention to detail and a focus on quality. No pieces are stamped with “cz” or any other mark to indicate that they are cubic zirconia (after all, a diamond is not marked as a diamond), and each gemstone comes with a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects, cracking, or chipping.
Engagement Ring Designs
Ziamond continually updates its designs to emulate the latest designer and celebrity trends along with producing elegant classic designs. While no patented, copyrighted designs will be reproduced, the company is able to recreate similar rings in a variety of styles to give the impression of designer pieces while still preserving individual flair. Popular styles of these cubic zirconia rings include:
- Designer inspired styles emulating popular jewelry lines, including Chopard and Tiffany.
- Bridal sets with either two or three rings in a range of styles.
- Three stone rings with varying accent stones.
- Bare mountings to embrace the couple’s chosen center stone, which may be a cubic zirconia or a natural diamond.
- Elaborate ring styles including filigrees, art deco pieces, multi-tone rings, and Victorian style rings.
- A wide range of settings, from traditional prongs to bezels, paves, and channels.
- Solitaires in a substantial range of diamond shapes and carat weights.
- Trendy styles including stackable bands, colored diamonds, and popular shapes such as Asschers and cushion cuts.
With such a wide range of cubic zirconia rings available, every couple is sure to be able to find one that suits their personalities and symbolizes their commitment to one another.
Other Artificial Gemstones
In addition to colorless cubic zirconia, Ziamond also reproduces artificial colored gems, including yellow diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and emeralds. Though the stones are laboratory-created, they are of exceedingly high quality, often ranking at the same level or higher than natural gems in terms of hardness, sparkle, and durability.
Cost
When engagement ring prices are continually rising and a quality ring may cost thousands of dollars, many couples look for more affordable alternatives, and Ziamond may provide the answer. Most of their cubic zirconia rings range from $200 to several thousand dollars depending on the setting, size, and intricacy of the design, when similar natural stone rings would begin at far higher prices and skyrocket to exceed most couples’ budgets. The vast majority of these quality artificial rings are less than $1,000, even for large carat weights and elaborate designs. This can give a couple greater flexibility with their ring design without sacrificing the quality of a beautiful gem. For even cheaper rings, the company’s website has a clearance section with discounted designs available for immediate purchase.
Ring Care
Cubic zirconia is durable and virtually indistinguishable from diamond, but it is not indestructible. Ziamond rings should be cared for just as any precious gem jewelry would be cared for: avoid harsh treatment, abrasive chemicals, and situations when the ring may become scratched or warped.
Celebrities and Ziamond
Cubic zirconia is so attractive and practical as an exquisite alternative to diamonds that even many celebrities opt for artificial pieces. If the jewels were damaged or lost, the expense would be less, but the quality and beauty is unsurpassed. A few of the celebrities who have worn Ziamond jewelry include:
- Terry Hatcher and Marcia Cross from the hit show Desperate Housewives
- Musicians Kelly Clarkson, Paula Abdul, Stevie Wonder, Randy Jackson, and Nick Lachey
- Models Carmen Electra and Tyra Banks
- Actress Shannon Doherty
- Actor Tom Arnold
- Comedians Jamie Foxx and Dennis Miller
- Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous host Robin Leach
In addition to celebrities sporting cubic zirconia pieces, the company also offer replicas of celebrity engagement rings for enthusiastic fans. Popular options include different sizes of Katie Holmes’ engagement ring from Tom Cruise, Britney Spears’ engagement ring that she purchased herself, and the the pink diamond engagement ring exchanged between Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.
