Make a handmade ring or a bracelet, something out of silver or any other metal you prefer.
Check out designer ideas on jewelry websites and try to make something yourself.
Try this: www.davidtishbi.com - this guy makes outstanding handcrafted designer jewelry, so maybe you can get some ideas from his design.

Is American jewellery with cubic zonic stones hallmarked with a CZ stamp?
Posted by: | Comments
I was wondering jewllery that is made in the US with cubic zirconia stones is the jewellery stamped cz. I have been told by someone selling in America that this is the case
I don’t believe that is so. I have never seen it here. but I will check on it.
here is a link that may have some info on it while I look. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_zirconia
this is the only reference my search came up with….so far.
it says CZ "stamping"…. insted of (Stamped). the wording is suspicious. "stamping" could mean different things. Even sterling silver would say "stamped" as in 925 stamped. not "stamping". So I checked further and saw no info. clearly stating that the CZ stones are stamped with "CZ" to Identifiy Them. So I would not trust it.

I have CZ jewelry and there are no stamps on them.
I bought them here. I am from the US.
here is another site I found that mentions CZ stamps but says there are none on there cz jewelry.
