What is Hammered Gold?

Friday, May 4th, 2012

Hammered gold is created when a metalworker beats a piece of gold with a hammer to create decorative pieces for jewelry. These gold pieces have a “dimpled” look and are a trendy fashion statement.

Hammered gold dates back some 5,000 years when Egyptian artisans discovered that gold could be manipulated in this manner and still remain durable. The hammered gold created by the Egyptians was mainly used for gilding (applying gold leaf).

Today’s hammered gold makes beautiful jewelry pieces.

As you can see in this Hammered Yellow Gold and Diamond Disc Necklace, the dimpled effect of the hammered gold makes quite a unique necklace. Visit LaurenKlein.com for more hammered gold jewelry.

The Cross

Monday, April 30th, 2012

Hot on the Spring 2012 runways is the cross. Remember back in the 80′s when Madonna made it cool to wear crosses? Well, crosses are back, and with a vengeance.

Crosses can be worn with just about any fashion. From classic to gypsy to goth, it’s all in how you present it. Big, bulky crosses make a bold statement, while smaller crosses are more subdued. Don’t be afraid to let your crosses stand out.

This Horizontal Vermeil Cross Necklace lends a new twist to the old vertical cross pendant and will make a big statement. Check out LaurenKlein.com for more cross jewelry.

Proper Gold Care

Saturday, April 14th, 2012

How you care for your gold jewelry will determine how long it remains shiny and luxurious. Gold is a soft metal that scratches easily. It should be handled with the utmost care to retain that “new” look for a long time. Here are some tips for cleaning and storing your gold jewelry.

  • Remove gold jewelry before bathing, swimming, and cleaning. The harsh chemicals can dull the finish.
  • Use a combination of mild dish soap and water to clean your gold pieces. Soak them for a few minutes and rinse. Only soak one piece at a time to avoid scratching.
  • Buff gold jewelry with a soft chamois cloth to bring back the shiny finish.
  • Store gold jewelry in a cloth lined box. If more than one piece is stored in the box, wrap each piece in tissue paper to prevent scratching.

This Gold Disc Necklace with Diamond Center should stay looking beautiful for years to come if cared for properly. Cleaning and storing your gold jewelry is easy to do and well worth it, especially if you’re planning on handing it down to future generations.
