6 Oct 2010Silver is often seen as the poorer alternative to Gold but is rapidly becoming one of this year’s most valuable investments. Investors are now paying close attention to the price of silver which has so far outperformed the price of Gold this year, jumping by 31% and reaching a thirty year high.
When people think of jewellery, the thought of gold, silver and precious stones such as diamonds and rubies come to mind. The prices of precious metals and stones like gold and diamonds are not cheap, results in jewellery made of these materials expensive. Plastic jewellery on the other hand, in comparison are relatively inexpensive. It is due to the fact plastic is available in abundant quantities at low prices. For example while a necklace made from 9ct gold may cost a few hundred dollars, a similar item in plastic would amount to less then 10 dollars.
Buying gold jewelry could be tricky simply because there are various kinds of karats, 14K cubic zirconia jewelry, and various colors of gold (based on other materials that the gold might be alloyed with to give added strength).

Many of us have old jewelry which is simply wasting away in a drawer or a box somewhere – it is unlikely to be ever used again and it is in every sense of the word, dead weight.

3 Jul 2009In the past few months, it wasnt really possible to believe that the price of gold would go up to $1000 per ounce and above. But when it did, it was a sheer surprise. We are not expecting the price of gold to go up even further and there are countless reasons for the rise in price of gold. Gold is very much in demand in many countries like China, India, Bangladesh and Pakistan and there isnt any probability of the price to fall. Gold is used in all these countries as jewelries and ornaments also apart from being a potential investment vehicle so they buy gold and sell gold often.
