Gold and silver jewellery has a history of several thousand years behind it. This began with the discovery of the first gold deposits in the time of antiquity. People began to make necklaces, bracelets and earrings from the small and large pieces of gold. Since the gold finds were extremely small, the precious metal was correspondingly expensive. It was mainly rulers and their families who were able to enjoy wearing gold jewellery. The custom of presenting gold and silver jewellery as a wedding present soon arose. To this day, there are areas around the world where this custom lives on. A gold ring as a gift should be considered special.

If you have now acquired a taste for jewellery, you should take a closer look at our wide selection. Rings, for example, make a good gift. Generally, simple ring shapes can be chosen as friendship rings. Or you can opt for a solitaire ring, a ring with a pearl or a gemstone. There are no limits to taste and budget when choosing the right friendship ring in our shop. You should pay attention to the right ring diameter and order the ring in a double pack. A pendant can also be a nice gift. Possibly with a personal engraving and a matching necklace. Or a pendant with a precious diamond or symbol pendant as a sign of the special bond. Ear jewellery also makes a good gift.

As already mentioned in the article, there are various occasions for giving a gift. In addition to the variant of giving a noble ring as a gift on the occasion of an engagement, a wedding or even a long-standing friendship, there are other gift occasions. A particularly beautiful and unique occasion for gifts is the christening of a child. Especially gold jewellery for children such as necklaces or a bracelet made of fine gold are still by far the most popular gifts for family, friends and godparents. Jewellery is also a wonderful gift for Christmas or Valentine's Day, which is also an investment. In any case, giving jewellery as a gift has a special meaning.

Whether gold and silver jewellery, diamond rings or pearl necklaces: jewellery casts a spell over both men and women. The selection of individual pieces of jewellery is correspondingly large. However, there is one basic thing you should consider before buying jewellery for children, women or men. There is jewellery made of real materials - and artificial costume jewellery. We tell you how they differ and what else you should know about jewellery.

Pure gold or silver jewellery does not normally cause contact allergies in the wearer. With alloys, it depends on the metal added whether your skin reacts with irritation. Nickel in particular causes itching and reddened skin in many people. Chromium, cobalt and palladium can also cause burning or the formation of small blisters on the skin. Nickel is also often used in costume jewellery to make it more robust. The EU's REACH regulation contains guidelines for a maximum nickel content in jewellery. But if you are sensitive, even a small amount of the chemical element can cause skin irritations. Normally, allergic reactions occur after 24 hours at the earliest. Therefore, inform yourself in advance about the metals used. Tip: You can find out if you have an allergy with the patch test. Here, your doctor applies supposedly allergenic substances to your back. Your reaction will tell you whether you should buy palladium-free or nickel-free jewellery in the future. Over time, titanium and platinum have proven to be particularly skin-friendly. Jewellery alloys with the transitional and precious metal are also corrosion-resistant and shimmer in a silver tone.

A gold ring does not necessarily have to be adorned with a stone. With a simple gold or silver ring that has a discreet pattern, for example, the combinations of jewellery and outfit are greater. Not everyone likes to wear a ring with a real stone in everyday life. Beautiful pendants made of rose gold, yellow gold or white gold with or without diamonds or cubic zirconia are also a noble accessory. A pendant really comes into its own with the choice of a matching necklace. Gold arm jewellery is a beautiful detail on the wrist and skilfully wraps around it. Gold earrings add the perfect jewellery style to any outfit. You can discover creoles, pearl earrings, stud earrings, diamond earrings and much more at MUAU Jewellery.

For those who prefer simple and contemporary silver jewellery, jewellery made of this precious metal could be the right choice. Silver jewellery can be combined with many outfits. It suits women and men equally well and is suitable for many classic and modern fashion styles. At MUAU, interested people can find a huge range of gold and silver jewellery. For this reason, a look at the silver category at MUAU can be worthwhile. Silver rings for friends should also be ordered in the right size and in pairs and given as gifts. The range of pendants, necklaces, arm jewellery and ear jewellery is just as large. A beautiful silver bracelet is often underestimated, as are beautiful silver hoops.

Jewellery with pearls is reserved for the ladies. In addition to white pearls, dark grey pearls are also popular today. The colour is created by dyeing the white cultured pearls during production. MUAU has a huge selection of pearl rings, pearl earrings, pearl bracelets, pearl necklaces and pearl pendants in the women's jewellery section. The pearls come in different sizes. Pearls add an elegant touch to any outfit.

You can often tell the difference between costume jewellery and jewellery made of precious metals or gemstones by looking at it. Artificial women's jewellery or necklaces for men are produced by machine in large quantities. Accordingly, the workmanship of even expensive designer jewellery is always inferior to that of elaborately crafted gold jewellery or diamond jewellery. On closer inspection, you will notice uneven surfaces or protruding metal. Especially when it comes to children's jewellery, you should choose high-quality handmade jewellery for safety reasons. In addition to the appearance, the price also tells you whether the jewellery is real. The higher the percentage of precious metal, the more you will have to pay. Because of their softness, jewellery is rarely made of pure gold or silver. Often, the resistance is increased by alloying it with copper. At the same time, this gives the ladies' and men's jewellery an attractive reddish hue.

Besides diamond jewellery, pearls are also at the top of the list for many jewellery lovers. Today, cultured pearls are used more often than natural pearls to make necklaces or rings. You will find different types.

• Tahiti cultured pearls come from pearl oysters from the South Seas. You can recognise them by their intense black-green to black shimmer.
• Cultured pearls from the South Seas are particularly rare and correspondingly expensive. They shine in silver-white or warm champagne tones.
• Freshwater cultured pearls, on the other hand, are now considered mass-produced. They consist of multiple wafer-thin layers of mother-of-pearl that form in pearl oysters.
• Shell pearls are made from the ground nacre of oysters into perfectly round pearls with a smooth surface.

Wedding rings, engagement rings, friendship rings and partner rings have been popular for decades. In terms of appearance, the different ring variants are similar. What is allowed is what is most pleasing in terms of style. It is also important with wedding, engagement and partner rings that they are ordered from MUAU in pairs and then preferably worn together. In Europe, it is still customary for a man to present his fiancée with a noble ring as an engagement gift. Jewellery made of gold or silver still represents a high-quality gift for an engagement or wedding. Many lovers prefer to give each other fine jewellery to match beautiful watches on these special days.

In recent years, wearing necklaces jewellery and earrings has also become socially acceptable for men. Gold chains for men have been making an impressive comeback for some time. They represent more than a statement, but are valuable accessories with which the man proves his good taste. In addition to simple link chains, king chains and franco chain are particularly popular with men. This is complemented with beautiful bracelets or other jewellery novelties or from the sale category at an attractive price.

A fine gold or silver ring with a genuine stone is a unique fashion accessory that can be worn on many occasions. If you can afford it, wear a solitaire ring to the office or a meeting. The women's or men's rings are also well suited as an elegant detail for an evening at the opera or a concert. There is more to solitaire jewellery than solitaire rings. There are also beautiful and exclusive solitaire studs or solitaire pendants. These elegant accessories complement a solitaire ring perfectly. Matching earrings, bracelets or general arm jewellery, necklaces, rings for men or children in combination with beautiful watches.

You can recognise the purity of the bracelet or necklace by the embossing stamp. The proportions are calculated in percentages of 1,000. Ladies' jewellery made of 525 gold consists of 525 parts of fine gold and the difference of another metal. Alloys with palladium are popular, resulting in shiny white gold. Platinum alloys must consist of at least 95 percent of the grey-white precious metal to receive a stamp. Also pay attention to the description of the jewellery. A "golden sheen" is often an indication of an imitation that has been coated with the precious metal. This coating can flake off quickly in everyday life. Note If you buy jewellery abroad, it may be genuine jewellery even if it is not stamped. A trustworthy jeweller can confirm the authenticity of the jewellery. The quality of synthetic diamond jewellery is improving all the time. As a layman you will hardly recognise any differences to real diamonds. One feature, however, is noticeable through magnifying glasses. Imitations are almost too perfect, because they are free of any inclusions. Other artificial gemstones lack the hardness of the originals. Glass rhinestones are made with a simple mirror-like foil. Finally, a look at the setting helps. In valuable real jewellery, the stones are custom-made, in cheap imitations they are simply glued in. The same applies to necklace clasps for men, women or children. With real jewellery you will notice the neat soldering, which costume jewellery lacks. Often the small metal loops are only bent together and can wear out quickly. If you fancy a pearl necklace, take a close look at the little pearl ball. If it is too evenly finished, it is most likely an imitation. This is because real pearls are unique and vary minimally in shape and size and have rough surfaces. Are you unsure whether it is real or imitation jewellery? Then contact a reliable dealer. As experts in their field, they can give you reliable information about the authenticity of the jewellery.

Whether it's children's jewellery, women's jewellery or men's necklaces, even the highest quality designer jewellery can never match the quality of real precious metals and gemstones. Nevertheless, pay attention to the workmanship when buying. For necklaces, the eyelets should be soldered and the carabiners should be as hard as possible. Otherwise you run the risk of them breaking or warping. And gemstones and pearls should fit tightly in their settings so that you don't lose them. That way you will enjoy your new piece of jewellery for a long time.
