We recently opened up an online jewelry store, and even though our inventory only consists of a few hundred products, we are super excited about promoting it and getting as much traffic as possible. We want to be a great source on information about natural stones, how they form, where to find them (go on treasure hunts), and of course jewelry which has been crafted with them.

Natural Stones such turquoise and blue opal are beautiful and precious. They can inspire artists, and complete the perfect look. Asoreforbeauty. com is proud to announce that it’s creating itself as a source for information and products relating to sterling silver, stainless steel, and natural stones.

Owned and operated by women, our site has a specific collection inspired and gathered by the owner herself, Nara Tamazian. Her goal is to make elegance and class affordable to everyone. Our Sterling silver designs, which are inspired by David Yurman, cost only a fraction of what you will find in David Yurman NYC, or Saks Fifth Avenue. Yet the beauty of each item is phenomenal.

Sterling Silver is jumping higher and higher in cost, and our silver prices still don’t reflect this hike. Because our inventory was purchased before the price increase, we can still afford to sell silver at the same rate as two years ago.

And our natural stones are not composite stones, mixed from turquoise shavings and compressed. Although some items have been created in such a style, they were chosen to be a part of our collection anyway, because of their sheer beauty and timelessness: the finest coral, sapphires, rubies, Swarovski crystals, and even “glass”.

Stainless steel is resistant to corrosion and staining it an ideal base material for a men’s jewelry and watches. In fact most of men’s jewelry is either stainless steel or tungsten. It can be re-finished by any jeweler and, unlike silver, will not oxidize and turn black.

Opal is a mineraloid gel, which can range from clear through white, yellow, orange, red, blue, green, shore, rose, pink, slate, olive, brown, magenta, gray and black. Usually, the most rare and dear considers reds against black.

Onyx is a cryptocrystalline form of quartz. The colors of its bands range from white to almost every color (have some purple and blue shades) commonly, specimens of onyx available contain bands of colors of white, tan, and brown. Pure black Onyx is common, and perhaps the most famous variety, but not as common as Onyx with banded colors.

Turquoise is rare, valuable and ornamental stone for thousands of years. The colors of turquoise are blue, blue-green, and green. Hardness and richness of color are two of the major factors in determining the value of turquoise; while color is a matter of individual taste, generally speaking, the most desirable is a strong sky to “robin’s egg” blue. However, in Tibet, greener blue is preferred more. Being a phosphate mineral, turquoise is inherently fragile and sensitive to solvents; perfume and other cosmetics will attack the finish and may alter the color of turquoise gems, as will skin oils, as will most commercial jewelry cleaning fluids. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may also discolor or dehydrate turquoise. Because of that, cosmetics, including sunscreen and hair spray, should be applied before putting on turquoise jewelry, and they should not be worn to a beach or other sun-bathed environment. After use, turquoise should be gently cleaned with a soft cloth to avoid a build up of residue, and should be stored in its own container to avoid scratching by harder gems. Turquoise can also be adversely affected if stored in an airtight container.

Swarovski crystal contains approximately 32% lead to maximize refraction and those crystals allow light to refract in a rainbow spectrum.

Gemstones that are associated with each month considered as Birthstones. They may be precious stones, such as diamonds, or semi-precious, such as Lapiz Lazuli. They considered lucky for their particular months and their healing powers heightened during their months. Therefore, if you are born in December then your Birthstone is the Turquoise, and you will get the most benefit from turquoise by wearing it in December. For October, it is Opal and so on. Since each birthstone has heightened powers during its month then some people buy a set of all twelve and rotate them for each month. Astoreforbeauty. com offers all kinds of gemstones.
