The Whiteflash Jewelry Education Center

The world of jewelry is vast and encompasses gems and minerals, artistry and technical craftsmanship. The range of options is almost limitless. It can be a little overwhelming even for experienced jewelry shoppers.

Our jewelry education section is intended to provide information on a variety of topics that will be helpful to shoppers in making good decisions in their jewelry purchases. Whether you are curious about different setting styles, different jewelry designers, or the pros and cons of different precious metals you, will be able to learn useful things to better understand your options.

As a specialist in designer engagement rings, our jewelry education section will feature lots of articles on the designers, their collections and their particular specialties. You will learn the history and inspiration behind the brands and the particular design elements and features that make them unique.

In addition to information specific to engagement and wedding rings, you will find articles about fine jewelry in the form of earrings, pendants, necklaces and bracelets. There are so many occasions where a gift of jewelry is appropriate and well received, that it is just a matter of finding the style and price point that best suits the purpose. Many of the jewelry designer brands have extensive collections of fine jewelry to choose from.

We also provide information on the custom jewelry design process, for those interested in creating something very personal and one of a kind. A step by step process is available to move from a concept, drawing or picture of an item to finished product such that much of the uncertainty is removed. Many custom projects today are done with use of CAD (computer assisted design), which allows for rendering of photo realistic images before manufacturing and allowing for changes to be made and rendered as part of the process.

Whatever it is that you are shopping for in the world of fine jewelry, we hope you find helpful information here. If you do not find what you are looking for, please contact us and one of our friendly GIA Accredited Jewelry Professionals will be happy to assist!
