Why You Should Consider the Benefits of a CZ Necklace

With the seemingly thousands of choices you have when trying to choose jewelry, be it gold, silver, diamond, cubic zirconia or something else, you might think that once you've picked they type of jewel or metal to use your job is done. But you still have to decide if you want earrings, a necklace, bracelet or ring. And then you need to decide on cut, shape and setting. It can get very confusing very quickly. But have you considered the various benefits of a cz necklace?

Before you laugh consider that although cubic zirconia or cz as it's also known, is considered in some circle to be "cheap" it does not have to be. Remember that a cz necklace can either be considered cheap or worth quite a bit, depending on it's intended recipient and use. It is all in how you and the receiver perceive this piece of jewelry. That being said, you should also consider some of its benefits as well.

A cz necklace, properly cut and shaped by an expert, can be made to look like a diamond. This is a big benefit as it is more malleable than a diamond and can be placed into a variety of settings.

Another benefit is that, in comparing a diamond or even gold or silver necklace with a cz necklace is price. It is far more inexpensive to have created than a diamond or gold necklace and can be used in more ways than a more traditional diamond. Consider that you can wear a necklace made of cz to a club and then wear it to a black tie dinner and you will definitely get your money's worth.

A cz necklace is also easier to take care of and maintain as well, often requiring just a quick polishing, whereas a diamond would need to get professionally cleaned. Peace of mind is certainly one other benefit to consider as well, as it is a lot less expensive to replace cz than diamond.
