Big Beads on a Man's Wrist?

QUESTION: Hello, I'm very interested in your beautiful Prehnite Bracelet 02 Chunky Stretch Green Black 13-14mm Round Stone (Gift Box). My concern is the size of the stones at 13 to 14mm. They seem and look pretty large in the photos of the bracelet on a woman's wrist. I'm interested in the properties of this stone, but will it look good on a man's wrist? In other words it looks okay with the 13 to 14mm on a woman, but how about a man? Do you have any pictures of it on a man's wrist? Do you sell very many to men? Also do you offer it in a smaller size than 13 to 14mm? I'm a professional person and I'm concerned that the size of the stones will be ostentatious say in a business suit.

Sorry for all the questions
Please let me know
Thanks
ANSWER: Hi, thank you for your email. Yes, the Prehnite bracelet you are referring to does contain large beads which would be most appropriate for special occasions versus everyday wear. Then again, it is also up to personal preference! Yes, we sell natural stone bracelets to both men and women. Style is a very individual thing, so we do not discriminate on which sex will be wearing which stones. At this time, we do not have the Prehnite bracelets in smaller size beads, but we do make and sell new items on our store every month, so I would keep a lookout on the website or sign up for our newsletter for updates on new products!

Are these Real Rubies?

QUESTION: Im sorry to ask this question but are they actual gems?  And how can you sell them so cheap?  I love this pendant my girlfriend loves rubys.. I would hate to purchase a man made stone or a piece of glass.. and do you have a chain that could be available with it?  thank you and again Im sorry I hope this does not seem insulting in anyway..

ANSWER: Hi, thank you for your question. Yes these are actual Ruby gemstones. They are more affordable than your precious Ruby gemstones because they are of a lesser quality than the shiny translucent red gemstones you may be familiar with. If you are unfamiliar with Rubies, rough Rubies are actually opaque purple to pink stones. Rubies in the rough look like purple rocks (I have included a picture for you). The precious gemstone version is much more rare and comes very clear red and very small pieces. The pendant that you are inquiring about is all natural Rubies from India. I do not have a chain that goes with it at this time. 

I hope this information was helpful and feel free to write again about any I Dig Crystals products, 

Sincerely,

Bracelet Sizing Question

Question: Looking for a nice stretch reiki (healing) stone bracelet for my daughter. She does reiki. I just don't know what size? She has a larger boned wrist. Small would not be good. Just not sure how stretchy these might be? Don't want them to be too stretched. Any recommendations.  Thanks. Cool product!


Answer: The best way to get your daughter's wrist size is to measure (or have her measure) her wrist at the point she would want to wear the bracelet and add 1/4" to the measurement for a comfortable fit and 1/2" for a looser fit. The bracelets do stretch, but they will feel uncomfortable and may cut circulation if they are too small.
Here's a jewelry sizing guide

CRYSTALS: Arthritis Bracelet

QUESTION: hi,can you tell me if the bangle will turn black or stay this way?? can you ware it day& night or is it easy to brake? thank you.i have arthritis in my fingers.

ANSWER: Hi, thanks for your email. This bracelet is not sterling silver. Sterling Silver will tarnish to black. However, it is silver-plated, so if you are wearing it all the time, the coating may peel off. I would recommend a stretch bracelet if you will be wearing something day and night and don't want metal discoloring. All crystals are subject to breaking as they are natural stones, depending on the condition they go through! For arthritis I would also suggest having a pair of Mochi Balls nearby. If you want to wear something, you may want to consider a Calcite Bracelet, Rose Quartz bracelet or a Rainbow Obsidian bracelet.

CRYSTALS: Polishing Cloth

QUESTION: Hi, where can i get a rag to shine my jewelry?

ANSWER: Hi! You can usually get polishing cloths from any jewelery store, but we may have extra to give you with your jewelry order, and if not, we can order you one at Satin Crystals as well! If in a bind, you can also use a microfiber cloth, it should remove the tarnish buildup!
