Cocktail jewellery as the name suggests is a piece of jewellery that attracts attraction. Cocktail jewellery has been famous since time memorial; however, the designs have changed from time to time and have even been set with unusual stones.

Cocktail jewellery sparkles a lot due to the number of small-sized diamonds or an array of gemstones well placed in a design. Cocktail jewellery can either have precious gemstones, diamonds or can also be created as fashion jewellery wherein Cubic Zirconia can also be used.

When buying cocktail jewellery you may come across different kinds of settings to back up the design. Popular Settings for cocktail jewellery include pave setting, micro-pave setting and invisible setting. Most jewellery pieces may contain either single setting styles or a combination of more than one style.

MICRO PAVE SETTING

used

s in il

y

Micro Pave setting is used for diamonds that are smaller in size compared to those used in pave setting. These diamonds are usually less than 0.01 carats in weight and more difficult to set.

aliexpress.com

The micro pave setting allows a continuous display of the diamonds or gemstones or stones, creating a singular effect in the design.

PAVE SETTING Pave setting is a setting style wherein the stones are held closely together with prongs that are made within the metal opposed to prong setting where the prongs stand out.

Pave setting creates a complete look making the design look like a single piece. Cartier the famous royal jeweller is known to have extensively used Pave setting in their jewellery. Many have followed this setting to create unique and beautiful designs by combining unusual gemstones.

opulentjewelers.com

INVISIBLE SETTING An invisible setting is a unique setting where the metal is not seen holding the stones. The metal that holds the stones is hidden under the stone itself as a matrix. Each stone is carefully selected by its dimensions for use in this setting. This setting is used to create a seamless flow of stones that gives life to the design. sweetcouch.com

Each setting is different and requires special care and attention, be careful not to resize these settings yourself unless qualified and trained to do so.

COVERSTORY

While there are necklaces, earrings and bangles which come under the purview, it the cocktail rings, which are pieces of this flamboyant jewellery, that are normally larger than the normal sized rings. This is because rain or shine, the lady in question, usually a celebrity or socialist wants her choice of jewellery to be noticed, and if possible written about in the next day’s newspaper on Page 3 personalities!

Indeed, the aim of these pieces of jewellery is to be the centre of attraction from the public in general and the aristocratic snobbish people in particular. No, it certainly won’t do to be subtle or understated. For example, the normal sized engagement and wedding rings have small but fiery diamonds, but the cocktail rings are so huge that they cover much of the ring finger and due to the fact that sourcing this size of gemstones wouldn’t be practical, many a time cheaper or imitation gemstones are used.

Yes, though in many cases, the cocktail jewellery uses unalloyed gold, glittering diamonds and silver, there is a lot of imitation gem stones that are used also. For inexpensive rings, low Karat gold, like 10k or 14k is used. Many a time, the cocktail rings are plated, underneath the plating would be the cheaper metal or alloy because if the purer form of gold, silver or diamonds are used in such a big size, it would work out too expensive. So, instead, if artistocratic women want huge conspicuous jewellery, they would have to make do with cheaper and more inexpensive gemstones.

The cocktail rings are designed in such a way that they usually have an oversized centre stone which is sometimes surrounded by a lot of smaller stones in their settings. Due to the size and beauty, the cocktail jewellery are used mostly

at formal events like weddings and engagements, but they are also used for informal gatherings as well. Cocktail jewellery makes the user conspicuous and noticeable although it is an admitted fact that it requires a particular “type of personality� for one to carry it off, especially at informal functions.

Having said so much, how does this cocktail jewellery differ from costume jewellery? To answer this question, one must first discern what is costume jewellery? Other synonyms for costume jewellery are imitation jewellery, trinkets, fashion jewellery, junk jewellery, or fallalery. Costume jewellery is used to complement an outfit to make a fashion statement. It does not have longevity and soon gets tarnished, whereas fine jewellery uses only the pure forms of materials and metals , like gold, silver and diamonds, and very often is used as a keepsakes or even in investments. Fine jewellery also has much sentimental value, as usually fine jewellery, particularly wedding jewellery, is passed on from generation to generations, and worn only at special functions.

Cocktail jewellery is not the same as fine jewellery as the latter uses completely genuine metals and gemstones, whereas the former in many cases uses a certain amount of cheaper gemstones. But that does not categorize the jewellery as costume jewellery as costume jewellery uses wholly artificial materials including plastic. Costume jewellery has little shelf life and looks trendy and smart only initially. Its metals soon turn black and its gemstones do not stand the vigors of weather and the seasons.

So, though cocktail jewellery is not as authentic as fine jewellery, it is better than imitation or costume jewellery which has a relatively short time span.

Many a young girl has asked the question that since the cocktail ring is so conspicuous, wouldn’t it be a good idea to get one as an engagement ring?

According to experts, this is contrary to what people have in mind. Usually engagement and wedding rings, along with rings for other deeply personal reasons are worn on the ring finger of the left hand, but know- it- all women find it more judicious to wear the cocktail ring on the index finger of the right hand and do not consider it apt as an engagement ring at all!

COVERSTORY

Awe-Inspiring Making a niche in India‌ Cocktail jewellery is normally a piece of jewellery bigger than the standard sizes which are usually considered by customers for their cocktail parties, engagements, and more such light western functions. The trend has come more from western countries and has now grown big in the Indian market too. Cocktail jewellery was inspired by western culture but has got popular in India as well. It is one big trend these days in our country that brides and bride/groom families have started following.

The best companion‌ I use mostly gold, but it could be any metal like silver, white gold, platinum etc. Each of these materials has advantages and disadvantages, and it helps to understand a bit about the metals in jewellery before you make your next purchase.

Design Style Am personally do a lot of animal motifs as it stands out and is in high demand as well among buyers. It’s just if it is for their wedding customers prefer bigger diamonds and light metals and if it is for someone’s else wedding they prefer going on bigger, chunkier jewellery designs that stand out.

Animal Motifs Would not like to tag something best or not so best, also I have a bit of everything available and I largely work according to client’s requirement and customisation. Yes, my personal favourites are animal motifs but whatever one likes it gets their best one and then it doesn’t matter it is best for someone else or not.

British Vogue recently reminded its readers of the resurgence of their popularity.

The concept of the ‘Cocktail Ring’ originated in the early 20th century when women saw cocktail parties as opportunities to express themselves through glamour and fashion. Over time the concept of cocktail jewellery evolved to accommodate any ‘statement’ piece. Whether it was a ring, necklace, bracelet, brooch or earrings, the bigger and more attention-grabbing, the better. Cocktail jewellery continues to be among the most desirable additions to the passionate jewellery lover’s collection.

The cocktail jewellery designs have created a niche in the segment by recognizing it as not a mere accessory but an integral part of ‘the cocktail look’.
