Designer Fashion Jewelry

Designer Jewelry
By Alison Cole




Usually, when the word designer is attached to an item, like 'designer jeans' or 'designer clothes,' it means that the item has been made by a well-known designer, making the item very valuable. This is because designer items cost more to produce than items that have not been created by famous designers. This is very true with regard to jewelry, as well. A piece of jewelry that has been designed by some of the most famous jewelry houses are considered more valuable, and the price tags of most of them attest to this fact.



Some notable designers

Some of the more notable designers of fine jewelry include Coco Chanel and Elsa Shiparelli, whose designs were not only applied to fine jewelry. They were also used in combination with costume jewelry. Other notable designers include Adrian Buckley, Christian Dior, Joan Rivers, Joan Collins, Ciro, Butler and Wilson, Swarovski, Pearlman House, and Napier, who, up to this day, continue to come up with high-quality fashion jewelry.



Getting designer jewelry

Nowadays, you need not go to a jewelry store or to the shops of some of the more famous jewelry houses in order to buy designer jewelry. This is because the jewelry houses have joined the E-commerce bandwagon and they now sell their jewelry online. From these web sites, you can pick from a wide selection of jewelry. You could also have customized jewelry made for you. In addition to this, these web sites also provide other helpful information that can guide you in your purchase. For example, some sites explain what you should look for when buying diamonds. However, some people still prefer going to the stores because they believe that nothing beats seeing and fitting the jewelry yourself.



If you choose to buy online, you should be careful when doing so and you should make sure that you are buying from a reputable jeweler, as the Internet also hosts some unscrupulous companies who may want to fool you out of your money.
