Quickly, what picture usually comes to mind when you think of diamonds? Do you , in your mind‘s eye, picture a popular blonde Hollywood movie star of bygone days, descending a staircase, dressed in a hot pink gown, while dripping with diamonds… surrounded by men and being serenaded? One would do well to note that diamond jewelry is not gender specific, and that any pre-conceived notions as to who can wear diamonds can easily be dispelled. No, diamond jewelry is not only for the ladies, but tasteful selections can readily be found for the discriminating gentlemen among us.
While masculine diamonds are usually surrounded by either yellow or white gold; black onyx is widely used as an attractive base to either contrast or showcase a sparkling stone. Oftentimes, a man’s cultural influences, background and experience will have a direct effect on the type of diamond jewelry he would choose, or is accustomed to wearing. Diamond jewelry does not need to be ornate to be attractive or eye-catching. Quality accessories can be found within reach of most budgets.
Pendants, cuff links, money clips, bangles and the popular single diamond stud earring, are all choices that can be made by the person who decides to purchase diamond jewelry for himself, or for those who are considering purchasing diamond jewelry for a beloved family member or friend. Perhaps, there is a distinguished business colleague, who has a retirement ceremony in his near future; or there may be another for whom a professional milestone has been reached. A diamond accented watch or other timepiece, would certainly be an appropriate gift, in recognition of either of the special occasions. And let’s not forget those who have reached the enviable milestone of a 60th wedding anniversary observance.
Whatever, the occasion, there is appropriate diamond jewelry available to bring a smile to any man on your list.
Masculine diamond rings…that sound like an oxymoron. But as this excellent article points out, masculine diammonds are a niche all to themselves. Great article and great little blog you have here. I have to go churn some butter, and Ill be back to read more about channel set diamonds and what not.
