How to choose the right pendant

 Pendants and pendants are always in the center of attention, because they emphasize the most delicate and seductive female area-the decollete, as well as gold engagement rings. They act like a magnet: they can attract and repel men's views.

The modern jewelry market offers a wide variety of pendants, depending on the style and purpose. Wear a single pendant or several at once, with bright inserts or in an original design. And better both! Unlike rings and earrings, where much depends on the shape, width and size, pendants leave more room for choice. Here the main reference point is your taste and mood.

What are the gold pendants and what is their special feature? How not to get lost in styles and styles? Read about this and more below in our article.

The pendant as a decoration

The most common way to use a pendant. Decorative pendants are presented in various shapes: oval, heart, drop, square. And their range is not limited to this. Designers come up with new models: non-trivial geometric shapes, fancy abstractions made of various materials, products in the form of symbols, tools.

Modern pendants and pendants are represented by two opposite trends: on the one hand - laconic in a minimalist style, on the other – voluminous and catchy in an ethnic style or boho.

In the spring-summer 2020 season, the trend remains multi-layered, voluminous and asymmetric jewelry, geometric style, engagement rings gold. And here a wide chokers stylists advise to replace multi-layer chain with simple pendants.

Religious symbol

Since ancient times, the pendant has determined which social and religious group its owner belongs to. This practice has survived to this day. A religious pendant is a symbol of faith, which many people treat as a talisman. The decorative function of the product fades into the background. Of primary importance is the spiritual significance of the pendant, and only then its appearance and price.

Each world religion has its own religious pendants: incense-for Christians, the crescent moon-for Muslims, the star of David - for Jews. It is believed that all of them have powerful protective properties against the evil eye and failures.

As a religious pendant, laconic products are most often chosen, without an abundance of decorative inserts, because amulets are usually worn under clothing.

Medallion

This product is in the form of a round or oval case. Most often they are romantic in nature. The locket opens like a book. Inside it is put some memorable thing, for example, a small photo.

Medallions are made of various alloys, decorated with enamel, stones, filigree.

Talisman (amulet)

The pendant as a talisman performs a protective function against the evil eye, and is also designed to bring success in business. For such purposes, the chain is put on the faces of saints, the stone with the eye, the hand of Fatima. The suspension can also be with a neutral pattern. What matters is not the form itself, but what it means to you.

An amulet for good luck is made in the form of a clover, a money tree, a key. It is believed that quartz (cat's or tiger's eye) protects from bad influences, and alexandrite calms, removes the negative impact after an aggressive conversation.

The right accents: tips for choosing

Pendants can make any image catchy and memorable, as well as tasteless and cheap. A tasteful pendant magically transforms the simplest cut of the dress. And vice versa. Therefore, in a rush of emotions from the beauty you see, do not lose your judgment.

Light-skinned people prefer to choose pendants made of yellow metal, and dark - skinned people-from white/red. Products with amber and red inserts will successfully emphasize brown eyes, and with yellow, brown, purple - green. If you have white gold diamond engagement rings, then it is more appropriate to choose a white gold and diamond pendant in the set.

Choice of metal: silver or gold?

Wondering how to choose a suspension, first of all you need to decide on the right material.

Silver jewelry is versatile: it can be worn to work or to informal events. They are not flashy and do not attract too much attention. They can be combined with both white gold and budget jewelry.

The basic rule: the material of the suspension must be the same as that of the chain!

Gold loves separation in the sock: mixing several metals in one image, and even more so with cheap costume jewelry, is considered bad form. And a gold chain with a pendant in such a colorful tandem will simply get lost.

In terms of practicality, the 585-th sample is in the lead, since it does not cause irritation and does not darken.

But silver requires increased attention in the care. Silver contains copper in its composition, which interacts with sweat/sebum, oxidizes and darkens.

Tip: To keep the product dark longer, take it off before training, showering, and other activities!

You can not clean the silver with a toothbrush and paste. They create microcracks on the surface of silver, which are subsequently further clogged with dirt!
