Hawaiian Jewelry - Tips

Hawaiian Jewelry - Tips for Caring Gold Silver Pearls and Diamonds Home - Members Area - Login - Help PR News Now : News at the Speed of Now. Hawaiian Jewelry - Tips for Caring Gold Silver Pearls and Diamonds Hawaiian jewelry is incomparable in its beauty and allure. However, to ensure that jewelry always maintains its shine and luster it is essential that it has to be well cared properly. "Most women are more than happy to buy Hawaiian jewelry. However, you can truly tell when a woman loves her trinkets when every ornament that she wears sparkles as new. It is important to keep your jewelry in good condition to maintain its value," says Yoshi, Owner - My Hawaiian Jewelry. Here are some tips offered by My Hawaiian Jewelry on how to care for the jewelry. Caring for gold Hawaiian jewelry:  Gold is an extremely popular metal used in traditional Hawaiian jewelry but it is a soft metal that can be scratched easily. Thus, when cleaning the gold Hawaiian jewelry use a soft cloth.  Use luke-warm soapy water. Keep it away from all chemicals including ammonia, toothpastes and dishwashing detergents.  Chlorine is extremely detrimental to gold so ensure that you take off all the gold Hawaiian jewelry when in the pool or Jacuzzi. Caring for pearls:  Pearls are more delicate than any other precious metals and gemstones. Always put on the pearl jewelry after makeup, perfumes and hair spray.  When removing the pearls, wipe with a soft, moist cloth. Never use any chemicals.  Store pearls in a velvet or satin lined box and separate from other jewels that could scratch the surface of the pearls.  The best way to keep the pearls looking lustrous is to wear them! Caring for silver jewelry:  Silver jewelry can tarnish easily so requires higher maintenance than gold. It is advisable to polish the lush patina of silver regularly before it gets tarnished. Prevention is much easier than cure after all.  Silver jewelry is best cleaned with mild soapy water. Let the water bead up on the jewelry and then pat it dry with a soft cloth.  Special solutions created for cleansing silver can be used. Ask jeweler for a good recommendation.  Do not use tissue paper or towels to rub silver. The fibers in these products can scratch the surface easily. Caring for diamonds:  In addition to all the regular jewelry caring tips, remember that diamonds should never be stored with any other jewelry. Diamonds are the hardest stone that exist and can easily damage the jewelry and gems.  Also, diamonds can sometimes become loose in their setting. Take the jewelry to a reputed jeweler immediately and have it reset unless willing to risk loosing the diamond altogether. Traveling with Hawaiian jewelry:  When traveling with Hawaiian jewelry ensure that each piece of jewelry is stored separately wrapped in a soft piece of cloth. Do not throw the Hawaiian jewelry in with the other accessories or cosmetics. The jewelry is likely to be scratched or broken. Also get jewelry cases designed exactly for this purpose. Thus, with proper care and maintenance Hawaiian jewelry can maintain its brilliant luster and shine forever! Want to Get your own E-News to better promote your website.

My drive today takes me from one season into another. I start the day in the endless summer that is Kailua-Kona-temperature a perfect, breezy 80 degrees F, but by afternoon I'm in the eternal 55-degree autumn of volcano country. Only in Hawaii. Break for the Coffee Belt I go from Kona to volcano country on Highway 11 or 180 via the Kona Coffee Belt, home of the famed, expensive bean. It's a world in miniature-tiny shops and houses tilting over the edge of lush green slopes with views of the misty blue Pacific 1,500 feet below. Make sure Driver Guy keeps his eye on the narrow, winding road as it passes through the scenic coffee villages of Holualoa, Honalo, Kainaliu, Kealakekua and Captain Cook. In the village of Holualoa, I always park in front of the rickety Kona Inn Hotel and run in to use its novel men's room. The restrooms are perched on a green cliff, with open-air views of the Pacific. Guaranteed your guy will get a huge kick out of this one. Treat this part of the drive as a coffee-tasting experience. Greenwell Farms, family-owned since 1873, lets you tour its orchards, which are white as snow in the spring when the first coffee blossoms pop out. Be sure to take home a pound or two of beans. They make a cup of joe that's wonderfully rich and strong-and redolent of the Big Island. Entering cattle country Volcano country a-waits, so head south on Highway 11. Road signs indicate the dates of the volcanic eruptions (1950, 1919, 1907) that sent lava bubbling down the slopes from the 13,680-foot Mauna Loa, which looms in the clouds somewhere above you. You'll pass in and out of thickets of eucalyptus. The smell of ripening mangoes makes the air seem-and almost taste-sticky sweet. (I always carry a plastic bag and a pocket knife on Hawaii drives. You never know when you might want to stop and pluck something tasty off a tree.) Just beyond Milolii, a quaint fishing village, follow a sign to South Point. Now you'll rumble through hot, arid cattle country. At South Point, you'll stand on a sheer and lonely bluff above the misty Pacific, the southernmost point in the U.S., the spot where the Polynesians, up from the South Pacific in outrigger canoes, first landed on these shores a thousand years ago. The first time I saw this killer view I vowed to myself, "You won't come back here alone." And I was right. When I next returned some years later, I brought my wife, who loved the whole area. However, she reminded me that she wasn't too keen on heights. We drove a short distance through the sagebrush and mesquite wilds to another end-of-the-world bay. Here she felt a little better. We gazed at some giant logs that lined the shore like lawn furniture, which had drifted all the way here from the Pacific Northwest. And you know, one made a perfect backrest for two. Hitting Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Now get set for the big climate change. You pass from summer to fall as you drive the last miles to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The park, 340 square miles, is all rain forest, dripping ferns and steaming fissures. Take the Crater Rim Drive, an 11-mile loop of the vast Kilauea caldera, at the center of which lies the always-steaming Halemaumau fire pit. The road dips through fern jungles, lava desert and plumes of sulphurous smoke. It's enough to give you the shivers. So warm your bones in the Volcano House, a venerable inn with tall windows looking onto the steaming caldera. The inn has a big lava-stone fireplace where a log fire has burned nonstop for 60-plus years-yes, they actually keep it stoked night and day. You can sit by the fireplace and take a nap (no one will disturb you). For dinner try Surt's, a cool cafe in the old Volcano Store. Then point the car downhill toward summer.
