How To Choose CZ Rings That Look Real

Since cubic zirconia are intended to mimic diamond jewelry, one of the most important aspects to consider when buying these imitations is to choose CZ rings that look real. This is especially true when selecting CZ rings that are to be used for engagement and weddings. So, how can you choose CZ rings that look real?

Stone Size and Your Budget

Just because you can afford a 4 carat CZ ring doesn’t mean anyone will believe you could afford a 4 carat diamond ring. If you want your jewelry to look believable, don’t choose a stone size that is much larger than one that you could afford if it were real. You may ask, then, what’s the point of buy a CZ if you only buy the size of stone that you could afford if it were real? That’s a good question, but the answer is simple. If you could afford to buy a diamond solitaire engagement ring that has a 1 carat diamond set in 14k gold for about the going price of $3,500 by making monthly payments over time, then you can choose a .85 or a 1 carat cubic zirconia ring instead and pay about $250 to $300 in cash and get the exact same 14k gold mounting and the exact same size diamond that will be believable and will look very real.

You saved thousands of dollars, you didn’t get into debt and your friends and family will not think it’s beyond the realm of possibility that you’re wearing a 1 carat genuine diamond ring because you could have financed the real thing. You will also have a high quality gold setting that is no different from the setting you would have received with the $3,500 ring, and you can choose to have a real diamond set in it in place of the CZ when you can afford to do so. By the way, both solitaire rings mentioned are actual pieces you can buy at Goldenmine, the real diamond solitaire is really for sale at that price and the exact same CZ rings they offer are really just under $250.
