While most women would love to own a 14ct gold diamond tennis bracelet, few woman can afford the luxury these days! However, there is an alternative that is well within the price range of most, and that is a silver or gold cz tennis bracelet! The cost for gold cz tennis bracelets are much less, in most cases, than tennis bracelets set with real diamonds.
For those of you who may not know what cubic zirconia stones are, simply put they are a synthesized stone, first commercially produced in 1976, that very closely resemble naturally formed diamonds. They match them in so many ways that it is sometimes difficult for the untrained eye to tell the difference.
If you are buying an engagement ring, well, it is probably important that you buy a genuine diamond. But when it comes to other jewelry, such as a tennis bracelet, it is often perfectly acceptable to buy a cubic zirconia tennis bracelet.
For all intents and purposes they look much the same as a diamond tennis bracelet, with the one difference that is quickly noticed being the cost. Other differences, that a trained eye can see, are things such as whether it flashes color (fire) or light (brilliance) with diamonds having more brilliance and less fire than cubic zirconia stones. They’re also colorless, where a real diamond is rarely totally colorless and if it is, it costs a packet! Also, cubic zirconia stones are very hard, but not quite as hard as a diamond–still that is not something that an average jewelry buyer could tell.
Think about it though. If you are buying a tennis bracelet, why invest such a lot of money (up to $5000) for a diamond set bracelet, when you could have a look-alike bracelet, which would suit your needs and still look classy and elegant for hundreds of dollars instead of thousands?
They are not cheap jewelry, even if you buy gold cz tennis bracelets, but they aren’t as extravagantly priced as the all-diamond variety. Of course, if you are very rich, or a famous sports woman, maybe you could afford a diamond tennis bracelet. If not, you really wouldn’t go wrong with the gold cz tennis bracelets!
