There is nothing like a unique gemstone necklace to make someone feel special. Gemstones have a quality all of their own, with each one being naturally formed over millions of years.Gemstones are loved and treasured. They are natural stones from the Earth. Some believe that they contain metaphysical healing powers.When worn the gems put off healing vibrations. Amethyst, for example, is very calming, and rose quartz promotes feelings of love.

Buying unique jewelry can be extremely satisfying. A one of a kind piece of jewelry helps to demonstrate your individuality and can make a dramatic statement. A good quality unique item of jewelry can form the center of a great jewelry collection. Even mass produced jewelry items will be complemented by a great piece of individual jewelry.

Women have been wearing gemstone necklaces for thousands of years, but 21st century females are particularly lucky. We live in an age in which the technology exists to cut and facet a gemstone in a way that makes it look truly beautiful. Our ancestors did not have that luxury. Still recent generations of women were not the first to wear gemstone necklaces to accentuate an outfit or enhance personal beauty. The difference is that now most women can afford to own at least one gemstone necklace whereas in the past only those who came from a wealthy background were able to own such fine jewelry.

Obviously you should only purchase a gemstone necklace if you can comfortably afford to do so. Fortunately some gemstone necklaces are very reasonably priced. For instance, if a necklace contains less rare semi precious gems such as amethyst, black onyx, agate or rose quartz it will be far more affordable than one that has rubies, emeralds or fancy colored diamonds. You can also compromise on the price of a gemstone necklace by choosing gems of a lesser carat weight or a less expensive metal setting such as silver or titanium. You may also wish to consider purchasing a necklace that contains synthetically made gemstones if you wish to save some cash. Conversely if you insist on a gemstone necklace that is made out of thick platinum and large natural fancy pink diamonds you should expect to pay a great deal of money for it.

When choosing a gemstone necklace you will want to use a measure of common sense. Consider what kind of jewelry suits your physical frame and your coloring before making a choice. Delicate jewelry tends to suit petite women and vice versa. Furthermore, we all suit different colors so there is no point choosing something that clashes with your hair or makes you look pale and washed out.

It also makes sense to choose a gemstone necklace that matches the clothing and jewelry you already own. If most of the clothes in your wardrobe are orange, red and brown it would obviously be better to choose an amber necklace than one that contains turquoise. Similarly if you already own a gemstone bracelet that includes smoky quartz it would be prudent to purchase a necklace that has the same gem.Gemstone is the important part in the jewelry supplies market.

After you've chosen your stones it's time to lay them out. You can even draw a sketch of how the necklace could be arranged. Lay out the different shapes and sizes of stones. Your necklaces needs to be long enough to wear. A chocker necklace is generally about seven inches long. If you want a necklace that hangs lower make the necklace longer. Try three of one kind followed by one of another. Experiment. Arrange the stones until you are happy with the look of the pattern you have created.
