Cubic Zirconia Place

1. Just like regular diamonds, you should first consider the clarity. Like all precious stones, Cubic Zirconia gems vary in clarity. You want to get a high grade quality Cubic Zirconia so it is shiny and brilliant. Birkat Elyon’s cubic zirconia is of the highest quality. Be careful of lower grade cubic zirconia: light will shine through it without creating brilliant colors, and it will look just like glass.

2. You also need to consider the color. Only the most precious diamonds are completely colorless, most have a yellowish or brownish tint. But the best cubic zirconia is made with a technology that causes the crystals to be even more flawless than diamonds. They also add color to cubic zirconia jewelry so you can get a gem that resembles a ruby, emerald, sapphires, or canary diamonds.

3. When purchasing cubic zirconia stones you need to consider the cut and the carat just like you do when purchasing real stones. The cut and carat should be fitting to your preferences. Most jewelers can customize this to fit exactly what you want. Also, many retailers offer a lifetime guarantee if one should become unsatisfied with their stones. The cut is the most important factor. The stone should be cut with the proper proportions to emphasize the brilliance. The way the stone is cut is what makes it have it’s reflective qualities that everyone desires when purchasing fine jewelry.

Just remember the 4 C’s: cut, clarity, carat, and color when purchasing your cubic zirconia in order to get the highest quality stone.
