Silver Micropave Earrings Shine Like Diamonds In Recession

Micro Pave Earrings are making people look and feel rich.

With constant talks of bankruptcies and bailouts, exotic high-end jewelry is usually not on everyone’s mind. Celebrities and hip hop stars on the other hand are still hitting the red carpet strong with iced out jewelry from their earlobes on down. With the introduction of sterling silver micropave earrings, now any one can get that high end, realistic diamond look during both prosperous and tough times. They are the perfect balance of price, quality and elegance.

 

For many years, men’s earrings were a small category in both fashion and fine jewelry. Many men simply wore unisex diamond studs set in sterling silver, gold or platinum. Kite and square shaped diamond paved earrings are the latest trend in hip hop and Hollywood alike. Now they are available for the first time in more affordable materials. A select handful of specialty jewelers have began offering the same quality, craftsmanship and brilliant shine made with sterling silver and cubic zirconia. Many of which are custom ordered from factories that usually only work with diamonds and gold. The sterling silver versions are much more cost effective than platinum or white gold versions. They are even rhodium plated, giving off the same shine as white gold earrings, which are usually also finished in rhodium plate. The finish is therefore visually identical.

 

What is truly remarkable is that the overall quality and craftsmanship is the exact same as the higher end diamond versions. Visually there is almost no difference. The stones are individually set with a microscope in a paved fashion, hence the name “micropave”. Grade A cubic zirconias, especially in such small sizes are virtually indistinguishable from diamonds with the naked eye. With usually 50-100+ stones per earring, the sparkle and shine is stunning.

 

These sterling silver micropave earrings offer consumers a true alternative to overpriced high end jewelry. For the first time, men can get the same high end look at a much smarter price. These earrings are available in many popular styles and some unique and rare custom designs as well. Stones are available in the usual brilliant white as well as exotic colors such as blue, canary yellow and even black. Prices start at just under $20, making them the ultimate combination of affordability and quality.

Leading online retailer hiphopbling.com has released a full collection of sterling silver micropave men’s earrings. These items are imported directly from the factory and are available at near wholesale prices to everyday consumers.
