<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Gents Rings, Look Beyond Beauty</strong></p>
<p>With jewelers quick to realize that most gents rings buyers, never look beyond external appearance and price tags, the temptation to push cheap and crude gents rings in the gents jewelry market is high. Without naming any jewelers playing such gimmicks, Kaisilver would like to suggest a few features that you need to check carefully before deciding on which gents ring to buy. We are surely not the only source for gents rings but, few jewelers provide the kind of care and attention for buyer interest as we do.</p>
<p>We all have budget limitations when we shop for something, this is universal and is true even of the richest man on our planet. The point is that, we need to be aware of budget limits when buying a gents ring. For example, if you like the design of a specific gents gem stone ring but, find gold to be outside your finances, do not push for a lightweight gold ring. It would be a better idea to get a 925 silver gents ring custom made. Find a good custom jewelry provider and request for the same design concept to be made in 925 silver. Ensure that the silver gents ring is strong and sturdy and has good craftsmanship. A lightweight ring will throw up problems that will be quite expensive to resolve. Your jeweler is not bothered about the longterm condition of your gents ring - so you need to be aware of this issues.</p>
<p>You could buy a plain gents ring with no gem stone or diamond but, if you plan to get a gents gem stone ring, there are something that you need to be aware of. The way that the gemstone in your gents gold or silver ring is set will be decided by the design concept and construction. For example, if the stone in your gents ring is set with prongs - this is how the ring will need to remain. Prongs tend to open up when they get stuck in cloth, pockets or other fabric. If this does happen to your gents ring, the stone could loosen and even drop off. This will involve repair expenses and if the stone, drops off and gets lost you will end up paying the stone replacement charges too. When you decide which gents ring to buy, make sure that the type of gem mounting used is durable and sturdy. Ideally we would recommend a gold or silver border all around the gem stone. If you must choose a ring with prong settings for the stone, make sure that the prongs are thick and sturdy. You also do not want to have sharp or pointed prongs as these could scratch and hurt delicate skin.</p>
<p>Many jewelers will tell you that gents jewelry should not have fine craftsmanship, they encourage belief in the wrong notion that well designed and crafted gents rings appear feminine and dainty. The entry of Kaisilver into the gents jewelry sector, put and end of most such gimmicks but some stubborn (and selfish) jewelers still exist. If you choose readymade or wholesale gents jewelry, getting good quality and getting all or most of your preferences fulfilled will not be easy. So the right way to do it would be for you to, choose custom gents rings. In this case, the jeweler needs to please and satisfy just you, he need not worry about keeping mass markets happy with lower price points.</p>
<p>Go through the above information a couple of times and ensure that, you have understood all the content. The idea is to give you a clear direction of what to look for and what to evaluate when buying a gold or 925 silver gents ring.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Male Jewelry, Quality Not Dependent On Metal Choice</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It is quite interesting to read the title of this brief article.  Few people would not agree with the statement but, very few jewelers actually follow this when it comes to male jewelry. Kaisilver often states that the choice of metal is something for the buyer to decide. The jeweler has no business to decide quality of the jewelry based on metal choice. This issue becomes more important when it comes to male jewelry. The increasing demand for male 925 silver jewelry has, thrown up some serious quality issues for 925 silver male jewelry.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">While there has always been a steady market for male gold and silver jewelry, the increase in demand for male silver jewelry is quite understandable. There are two main buyer groups when it comes to male 925 sterling silver jewelry. One group of male jewelry buyers love sterling silver for it&#8217;s classic and confident look. This is a group that somehow cannot find similar satisfaction in male gold jewelry. This group of buyers were always loyal to silver jewelry, even when gold prices did not reach for the skies. For such buyers male gold jewelry is not an option at all, they want silver and appreciate quality sterling silver jewelry.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There is another group of male silver jewelry buyers, this group began their affair with 925 silver jewelry in the past 4 to 5 years. They originally preferred gold jewelry, rising gold prices soon pushed them towards the male silver segment. Keep in mind that, this was the buyer group that was used to getting quality gold jewelry. At this point they would demand the same quality for male silver jewelry. Such buyers also expect a high degree of customization, something that jewelers will need to adjust to.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Basically both groups of male silver jewelry buyers want quality. They are not in a mad rush for &#8216;cheap&#8217; male jewelry as they know that, cheap price implies cheap quality too. This behaviour pattern of silver male jewelry buyers is no secret, however jewelers fail to respond promptly to this changing trend. Kaisilver has always welcomed both gold and silver jewelry orders, this has made us the preferred choice for quality male jewelry. At the same time, we would like to say that we are not the only source for male jewelry in gold or sterling silver. Once you know the quality of merchandise to demand and expect, it will be easier to find options for buying your male jewelry. Review our report on male jewelry at <a title="male jewelry, gold or sterling silver male jewelry made to order" href="http://www.jewellery.kaijewels.com/male-jewelry.htm" target="_blank">http://www.jewellery.kaijewels.com/male-jewelry.htm</a> and equip yourself with information, that will assist you in making the right buying decision.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 370px"><img title="white topaz rings for men, custom mens rings with topaz gem stone" src="http://www.kaijewels.com/man75-mens-white-topaz-ring-b.jpg" alt="White Topaz Ring" width="360" height="270" /><p class="wp-caption-text">White Topaz Ring</p></div></p>
<p>Talk about topaz men&#8217;s rings and the shades of blue topaz gems comes to mind. White topaz is the natural form of topaz for more than 90% of the rough topaz that is mined. And yet, a white topaz men&#8217;s ring does not seem to be very common. The interesting thing is that topaz jewelry became very popular only after, it became possible to treat white topaz to various shades of blue. Both silver and gold men&#8217;s rings with white topaz were considered to be quite ordinary and boring at that time. This trend went on and the sky blue topaz, swiss blue topaz and ofcourse london blue topaz gems drew a lot of interest and demand.</p>
<p>Kaisilver experts realized that the introduction of the MAN75 mens gold or silver white topaz ring, would have limited interest but, the actual figures proved them wrong. A sharp increase in the orders for custom men&#8217;s rings with white topaz gemstones was observed in the gold and silver jewelry segment. Sales figures aside, some interesting queries raised by interested buyers did seem quite surprising.</p>
<p>At least 25% of the buyers who finally ordered a gold or 925 silver mens white topaz ring from Kaisilver, had initially requested for a confirmation that white topaz was a natural gem! They had never heard of or seen white topaz gemstones. The fact that over 90% of the rough topaz mined is white topaz, seems to be unheard of by many jewelry lovers. For the records, we would like to state that, the white topaz gem in this mens topaz gem stone ring is natural. If you still have doubts, we can support our claim with a laboratory testing certificate for the gemstone.</p>
<p>Question number two, that was indeed very common related to treatment. Even repeat buyers of topaz rings wanted to know if the color on the white topaz was natural. This question has already been answered above but, we will elaborate something here. Most jewelry buyers are well aware of blue topaz gemstone jewelry, the fact is that all shades of blue topaz gems begin life as white topaz. The color change is brought about by treating white topaz. So the color of white topaz is natural, it could be heat treated sometimes to bring out a super white (colorless) appearance.</p>
<p>The design concept of the MAN75 ring is based on the super selling <a title="mens garnet ring" href="http://www.kaisilver.com/birthstone-man-ring-ks-01.htm" target="_blank">MAN57 men&#8217;s garnet birthstone ring</a> from Kaisilver. Lavished with a minimum gold or silver weight of 20 to 25 grams, crafted by some of the finest jewelry artisans and craftsmen - this ring is truly highend. The best part ofcourse is that, like all Kaisilver jewelry you get the same quality for the gold or sterling silver mens white topaz gem ring. The gem stone itself is selected by gem experts before it is custom cut to precisely fit the gold or silver castings crafted by skilled craftsmen.</p>
<p>We have more details of this handsome white topaz mens ring at <a title="white topaz gemstone ring for men" href="http://www.jewellery.kaijewels.com/man75-mens-white-topaz-ring-kj-01.htm" target="_blank">http://www.jewellery.kaijewels.com/man75-mens-white-topaz-ring-kj-01.htm</a> and you can contact our support experts at <a href="mailto:sales@kaisilver.com">sales@kaisilver.com</a> if you still have some questions.</p>

<p>Jewelry lovers today look for more than just the ordinary when shopping for jewelry. The instant popularity of the Kaisilver RG150-DS star sapphire ring is a good example of how, something unique and classic can impress even seasoned gem and jewelry lovers. This sterling silver ring has an 8&#215;6mm oval disffused star sapphire gemstone in the center. The side gem stones in this sterling silver star sapphire ring, are not some tiny accent stones. We have set two 7&#215;5mm pear shaped gems in this jewel. Before we move ahead with our discussion on this star sapphire ring, we would like to say something about the metal options for this jewel. You can order your star sapphire ring or any other jewel, in gold or 925 sterling silver.</p>
<p>The antique design of this silver or gold star sapphire ring, will appeal to all jewelry lovers. It is a classic design concept, that looks far more expensive than what it&#8217;s price tag would suggest. If you want to know the gem combination in this star sapphire ring as shown in the above image, read these details. The center gem is a diffused star sapphire, the side gems are 7&#215;5mm white topaz gems. You can ofcourse order your ring with any gem combination that you wish.</p>
<p>So what exactly is a diffused star sapphire, it is necessary to explain this term so we will spend some time talking about it. A diffused star sapphire is basically a natural sapphire that is treated to generate the star effect. The fact is that until a few decades ago, it was possible to get star sapphires from the mines. You can find some today too but, the star effect is quite blurred and it is difficult to please a serious buyer. Gem manufacturers, tried hundreds of ways to bring about the star effect on sapphires. The diffusion process gave the best results, the star sapphire treated in this way came to be known as &#8216;diffused&#8217; star sapphire.</p>
<p>We will not start any marketing hype here, so if you are interested in knowing more about the RG150DS check out the details at <a title="star sapphire ring with diffused star sapphire" href="http://www.kaisilver.com/mother-ring.htm" target="_blank">http://www.kaisilver.com/mother-ring.htm</a> our support team at <a href="mailto:sales@kaisilver.com">sales@kaisilver.com</a> will be glad to help you with any advice or suggestions that you might need.</p>

<p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 610px"><img title="Antique Emerald Ring, From A Spanish Ship Wreck" src="http://www.kaisilver.com/antique-emerald-ring-ks-bx-211011.jpg" alt="Big Antique Emerald Ring" width="600" height="420" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Big Antique Emerald Ring</p></div></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>10 Carat Emerald Gold Ring, From Deep Down In The Ocean</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A big emerald ring dating back to about 4 centuries was recently reported. While it we not uncommon for the rich and powerful to have such extravagant gem stone rings, Kaisilver experts rushed to find answers to one very important question. If you are one among the many thousands of gem and jewelry lovers who have appreciated and benefitted from various Kaisilver reports, you will remember our often repeated advice related to emerald gemstones. We have always recommended that emerald gems should not be soaked in water for more than a minute or two. This is because of the damage that might occur to the gem when, the water penetrates into the natural fissures and cracks that are always present in natural emerald gems.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The point is that all natural emeralds are treated with natural oils, and this has been done for many centuries. The oils fill the cracks in the gem and soften their appearance. This obviously improves the beauty and lustre of the emerald. If you do soak your emerald gem in water for too long, the water can enter the cracks and force the oils out of that space. This will negatively affect the beauty of the emerald.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So what about this antique emerald ring that had remained under water for more than 400 years. Did the gem not get ruined as the water entered the stone. Is it really possible for a large 10 carat emerald, to be absolutely clean with no cracks or fissures. The answer is surely no, all natural emeralds show these properties and the emerald gem would not be an exception. However a technical possibility regarding this large 10 carat emerald needs to be explained.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">It is possible that the gemstone in this antique emerald gold ring, was of a very high quality. Such a gem could probably have very few fissures or cracks, and the few that are present could be very fine and narrow. If this is the case, the natural oils used to treat the stone might not play a significant role in the beauty of the gem. So even if you do presume that the stone in this antique emerald ring was given the natural oil treatment, a loss of oils would not degrade the beauty of the gem to any visible extent. Ofcourse no one actually reported that, there was no need to retreat the emerald with oils, it probably will be cleaned and conditioned by a professional jeweler.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The Kaisilver report on this antique emerald gold ring can be seen at <a title="The Kaisilver Report On The Antique Emerald Gold Ring" href="http://www.kaisilver.com/antique-emerald-ring-info-ks-201011.htm" target="_blank">http://www.kaisilver.com/antique-emerald-ring-info-ks-201011.htm</a> and our support experts at <strong>sales@kaisilver.com</strong> will be glad to answer any more doubts or queries that you might have. While we do not own or sell the ring shown in the image, we can custom make a similar emerald gold ring for you.</p>

In most We have compiled this report to educate you regarding some basic caution that is needed when washing a diamond ring.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Ring Down The Drain</strong>: This might seem like a drastic statement but, more than 30% of the jewelry buyers we surveyed said that, they cleaned their diamond ring in the wash basin. When cleaning a diamond ring in a wash basin, there is a chance of the ring dropping into the basin. Should the basin have an open drain or a &#8216;grid&#8217; that has wide gaps - you could see your adorable diamond ring go down the drain! In Aug 2011, there was an incident where a lady lost her $12,000 diamond ring when it accidentaly went down the drain. Fortunately, the local public works could trace the expensive diamond ring to a nearby sewer. The lady and the ring were soon re-united. She probably will not be taking the ring off her finger for a few months at least.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Loose Diamonds</strong>: This is actually two problems in one, in this case the diamonds in a ring could be loosely fitted on the mounting. The stones could fall off when the diamond ring is being washed or cleaned. A wash basin with a drain grid, that has gaps of less than 1cm would surely prevent the ring from falling through but, most diamonds are much smaller than 1cm (10mm) and can therefore pass through the gaps in the grid. If this does happen, it will be tough to trace the diamond in the drain - metal detectors cannot locate diamonds and remember that the stone itself will be far smaller than the ring. Loose diamonds can happen due to bad craftsmasnship or even through wear and tear. A classic example of diamond rings that are prone to have loose stones is, the cluster type of diamond rings where many tiny diamonds are mounted closely to each other. You can expect a few of these tiny diamonds to be loose. The nature of cluster rings also makes them prone to developing loose stones over time. These diamonds are sometimes so very tiny that, many of us would not be able to locate them even right under our nose! When a loose diamond drops off the ring, you will need to get the ring repaired. If you have managed to find the stone that dropped off, the repair might not be very expensive. But if the diamond fell off and got lost, you could end up paying expensive replacement charges.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Ultrasonic Cleaners</strong>: There was a time when ultrasonic cleaners were considered to be safe, for cleaning all types of diamond rings. This has changed now, diamonds are sometimes treated with &#8216;fillers&#8217; to seal internal cracks and fissures. This process is not natural and should be ideally be informed to the diamond buyer, however this is often not the case. The filling treatment performed on diamonds, affects their durabilty when set in diamond rings. The ultrasonic cleaner can shake the filler out of the cracks. When this happens, the diamond would lose some it&#8217;s beauty and glitter. So when cleaning diamond rings, you need to know whether the stones in the ring were teated in this way.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Forgetting A Diamond Ring</strong>: This is not directly related to the cleaning of a diamond ring but, it is often one of the problems created by the cleaning process. A young lady walks into the wash room, her hands are stained with ink - she probably mishandled an inkpot. She does not want to ruin that pretty diamond ring on her finger. She takes off the ring and keeps it near the wash basin. Concentrating on ways to remove the ink stains from her hand, she forgets all about the ring. Hand washing done, she quickly gets back to her work desk. The diamond ring remains in the wash room but, not for long. Someone steals the jewel and the young lady is really sad.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">In the above paragraphs, we have explained what you need to be careful about when washing diamond rings. If you are interested in learning more on this topic and also, getting some good suggestions for cleaning diamond rings, check out the Kaisilver report at <a title="Cleaning Diamond Rings" href="http://www.kaisilver.com/diamond-ring-cleaning-tips-ks-info-01.htm" target="_blank">http://www.kaisilver.com/diamond-ring-cleaning-tips-ks-info-01.htm</a> It is comprehensive and useful.

<p>Tanzanite wedding rings are exclusive and <strong>unique in more ways than one</strong>. The violet blue <strong>color</strong> of tanzanite gems is attractive and gorgeous. This itself stirs up substantial demand for tanzanite wedding rings, there is ofcourse much more in this gem to attract a large following. Unlike other gems like ruby, sapphire, emerald and even diamonds that are found in many nations - tanzanite is found <strong>in just one nation</strong> on our planet and that is Tanzania. And do no tbe under the impression that last tracts of Tanzanian lands hold tanzanite rough, there is just one locality in the country where the gem is mined.</p>
<p>The fact that Tanzanite is mined in just one small locality means that, it is rare and infact <strong>rarer than diamond</strong>.

Kaisilver has published a report on <a title="Report On Tanzanite As A Birth Stone" href="http://www.tanzanite.directstones.com/tanzanite-december-birth-stone-info-ds-01.htm" target="_blank">Tanzanite December birthstone</a> clearly explaining that most birthstone charts have preferred to stick with the traditional December birthstones like blue topaz and turquoise. In 2002 the ICA (International Color Gemstone Association, decided to classify Tanzanite as a birth stone and assigned it to the month of December.</p>
<p>There surely are many options for <a title="tanzanite ring collection" href="http://www.tanzanite.kaijewels.com/tanzanite-ring-all-kj-01.htm" target="_blank">tanzanite gem stone rings</a>, of particular significance is the RG143 heart tanzanite ring.

<p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 370px"><img title="Claddagh Rings For Men" src="http://www.kaisilver.com/man33-mens-claddagh-rings-ks-bx-01.jpg" alt="Gold or Sterling Silver Mens Claddagh Rings" width="360" height="270" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Gold or Sterling Silver Mens Claddagh Rings</p></div></p>
</div>
<div class="mceTemp">In a day and time when mens rings are becoming more stylish and trendy, the sustained demand for mens claddagh rings makes an interesting case study. Why do men with modern tastes and preferences still choose to wear a gold or 925 silver claddagh mens ring. To understand the reasons behind this behaviour, we will need to explain the meaning of the claddagh ring. The claddagh ring is a tremendous jewel with a deep meaning and significance, the first ring being made more than 3 centuries ago. An Irish slave by the name or Robert Joyce is credited with making the world&#8217;s first claddagh ring.</div>
<p></br></br></p>
<div class="mceTemp">It was not the external beauty or the value of the jewel that touched the hearts of millions of gem and jewelry lovers. The love and sacrifice which gave Robert the strength and will to live through the harsh conditions of slavery were due to his beloved. Robert dreamt of being free one day and meeting his beloved. With this hope he kept making a small gift for her. Finally when his dreams did come true, he went home and was overjoyed to see that his beloved was still waiting for him. He gave the gift (ring) that he had made to her and the couple were soon married. This ring came to be known as the claddagh ring.</div>
<p></br></br></p>
<div class="mceTemp">A lady&#8217;s or mens claddagh ring has the same meaning, the features are what give significance to this historic jewel. The heart denotes love and the hands show friendship, the crown is a symbol of loyalty. You could say that the heart, crown and hands are the essential features of every claddagh ring. It is this meaning of the claddagh ring that has made it popular among men too. You will not find many heart shaped rings suitable for men, the claddagh mens ring is an exception. Kaisilver is today regarded as the world&#8217;s best source for the claddagh ring. An intense research project conducted by our team ensures that, each crafted ring in gold or silver, includes all the features of the original ring made almost four centuries ago.</div>
<p></br></br></p>
<div class="mceTemp">The gemstone in a mens claddagh ring is optional, you could choose to have a full gold or silver ring with the metal covering the heart shaped portion too. If you prefer a gold or 925 silver mens claddagh ring with a gem, the choice of gemstone is entirely up to you. A color preference can be one reason for choosing a particular gemstone for your claddagh mens ring. Birthstones are also one reason why jewelry buyers select specific gems for their jewels. The MAN33 is shown above with a black onyx gem, this is not a birth stone but is very popular with men. The deep black color of onyx, does not make it look gaudy or flashy. The gemstone exhudes calmness and confidence. Traditionally some people do believe the wearing an onyx gemstone helps a person comes to terms with various forms of mental stress.</div>
<p></br></br></p>
<div class="mceTemp">Another good thing about this jewel is that, a gold or 925 claddagh ring for men has the same degree of meaning and significance. You can therefore make a metal selection based on your personal choice and budget. At Kaisilver we give equal attention to crafting gold or silver claddagh rings. The same production team, craftsmen, gem experts and designers work on gold and 925 silver jewelry orders. You are welcome to send your queries or requirements to our experts at <strong>sales@kaisilver.com </strong>You can also read more about mens claddagh rings at <a title="Mens Claddagh Rings, Gold or 925 Silver" href="http://www.newsletter.kaijewels.com/mens-claddagh-ring-info-kj-01-2808.htm" target="_blank">http://www.newsletter.kaijewels.com/mens-claddagh-ring-info-kj-01-2808.htm</a> and see some more design options for your ring.</div>

<p>The RG160 sapphire and diamond ring from Kaisilver is a sleek and classic jewel. This small sapphire ring will be a good example to demonstrate how gem size may not be important in some cases. The Kaisilver support team often receives buyer complaints (prospective buyers), that our ruby, emerald and even sapphire rings are just too lavishly made and extravagantly priced. We ofcourse cannot deny the fact that Kaisilver sapphire rings are not cheap but, the Kaisilver complaints support section has gathered some very vital information. We will share that information with you here in this brief report.</p>
<p>While a large number of jewelry buyers wear jewelry to feel good, and enhance their style and personality - there is one segment of gem and jewelry lovers have assign a deeper meaning and significance to the jewelry they wear. For example, many people believe that a sapphire helps encourage a person to have a calm and peaceful mind and clean heart. In ancient times, sapphires were even believed to protect the rich and powerful from health related problems and even, from physical harm like attempts to kill and maim.</p>
<p>For the segment of jewelry buyers who need a sapphire ring for it&#8217;s meaning and traditions, the size of the sapphire would not be a relevant issue. For example, if you wanted a September birth stone ring and did not have a generous budget to support the purchase - a small sapphire ring would be a good idea. When you talk about a small blue sapphire ring, you need to understand that you do not need to compromise on quality of design, gemstone or craftsmanship. This is something that Kaisilver would like to stress and explain to all jewelry buyers.</p>
<p>Now give another look at the RG160 small sapphire gem stone ring shown in the above image. The gem size is a 5mm to 6mm gem, this is not a tiny gem but it is not a huge hunk that will burn your wallet too! One good thing about small gem stone rings is that, the quality of the gem can be good even at a modest price. The fact is that most gems and especially, diamonds, ruby, sapphire and emerald get to be very expensive (per carat) when the stone size increases. The 6mm round blue sapphire ring hits the right price equation, we say this because a 7mm round blue sapphire would show a substantial increase in price. From the view point of the buyer, the 1mm increase in sapphire size from 6mm to 7mm really does not justify a big price difference.</p>
<p>You would be aware by now that Kaisilver is the world&#8217;s leading online custom made jewelry provider. Let us tell you <strong>how customization can help you</strong> get a small sapphire gemstone ring within your budget. With gold prices touching the sky, one option that can tame the price tag on your small sapphire ring is the metal. You could get a silver sapphire ring at a much lower price as compared to the gold sapphire ring. The good thing about Kaisilver custom sapphire rings is that, you get the same quality in terms of design, gemstone and craftsmanship for the gold or 925 sterling silver sapphire ring. You could also trim down the price by choosing to leave the diamonds out of the design - this again is possible when you choose your ring from Kaisilver. Complete details for this sapphire ring can be seen at <a title="Small Gemstone Rings" href="http://www.kaisilver.com/sapphire-diamond-ring-01.htm" target="_blank">http://www.kaisilver.com/sapphire-diamond-ring-01.htm</a></p>
<p>The <strong>RG160 Kaisilver small gemstone ring can be custom made</strong> in gold or 925 sterling silver. The small sapphire gold ring could be ordered in 14k or 18k white or yellow gold. You can choose the gem stone of your choice and also request for the side diamonds to be left out of the design. Our support team will work out specific price quotes for your requirements.</p>
<p>While talking about rings with meaning and the gem stone size, we would like to narrate an interesting and significant event. A metal specialist working as a railway technician found an old sapphire ring in the U.K. This happened in July 2011. British researchers have not yet identified the exact time (era) during which this sapphire ring could have been made but, they put the estimate at the 7th century to the 11th century period. What is rather interesting is that the ring is being classified as an ancient royal ring - experts are almost certain that this gold gold ring belonged to some anglo-saxon or viking royalty. This has historic significance but Kaisilver experts have made an important observation. The old gold ring that was found, has a gold weight of just 10 grams, despite it&#8217;s rather big dimensions. The next strange thing is that the gemstone is a only 6mm in size, it is a cabachon cut blue sapphire stone. From the image, the gem looks to be of a fairly ordinary grade (color). There were other &#8217;stones&#8217; in this old sapphire ring too, they were tested to be pieces of red glass and were neither rubies nor spinels! If you keep these facts in mind, it does seem strange that ancient British royalty would wear such an ordinary jewel with an ordinary blue sapphire. However since Kaisilver has no direct access to the ring which, has now been declared as a state asset and locked up in a musuem - we can deduce only one thing from the story revealed so far. This ancient sapphire ring was worn more for it&#8217;s meaning rather than to flaunt the wealth and power of the owner. We have filed this report including our comments on the old sapphire ring find at <a title="Old Sapphire Ring" href="http://www.kaisilver.com/old-sapphire-ring-ks-info-01.htm" target="_blank">http://www.kaisilver.com/old-sapphire-ring-ks-info-01.htm </a></p>

The same care and attention is given to gold and sterling silver jewelry. Do email our support experts at <strong>sales@kaisilver.com</strong> if you have any doubts or queries.</p>

<p><div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 610px"><img title="Blue Sapphire Gem Stone, Round Cabachon Sapphire In Antique Gold RIng" src="http://www.directstones.com/antique-sapphire-gold-ring-15-08-2011-01.jpg" alt="Antique Sapphire Gold Ring" width="600" height="410" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Antique Sapphire Gold Ring</p></div></p>
<p>A round sapphire gem stone ring dating back to the 10th or 11th century was found in the U.K. The roud cabachon blue sapphire gold ring was purchased from the finder by a museum for 35,000 GBP. From the description of this blue sapphire stone ring, it appears that the antique sapphire ring was worn more for meaning and significance rather than for beauty or a show of wealth. The sapphire gem stone is not extravagantly very large, it is just around 5mm to 6mm in size. Another observation is that, the other stones in the antique sapphire ring were just red colored glass. Had this ring been a show of power or wealth, the red glass pieces would most probably be red spinel or red ruby.</p>
<p>If you see the blue color of the sapphire in the ring, it does not seem to be a high quality ceylon blue sapphire gemstone. However it is quite possible that the round cabachon blue sapphire gem came from India or Ceylon (Sri Lanka). In todays gemstone industry scenario, the blue color of this sapphire stone would look similar to blue sapphires from the mines in Thailand. But if you consider that the ring is being assessed as coming from the 10th to 11th century, it is not likely to be a Thai blue sapphire gemstone. Gem mining is not likely to have been going on in Thailand during that early time.</p>
<p>If gem stone experts want to know location where this round cabachon sapphire gem was mined, a study of the internal inclusions in the sapphire will have to be made. Comparing the environments in the likely gem mining locations with the composition of the inclusions in the sapphire - could bring up conclusive answers.</p>
<p>Given the historic dates being estimated for this antique sapphire gemstone ring, the value of 35,000 GBP for which this sapphire gem stone ring was purchased seems low. However it is quite likely that the ring was purchased and kept in a U.K museum considering the jewel to be a national property. The Directstones report on this blue gem stone ring has more information on this antique gold ring, check the report at <a title="sapphire gem stone ancient gold ring" href="http://www.sapphire.directstones.com/antique-sapphire-gold-ring-ds-info-01.htm" target="_blank">http://www.sapphire.directstones.com/antique-sapphire-gold-ring-ds-info-01.htm</a></p>
