At Birkate Elyon we offer superior quality, hand-cut and polished CZ jewelry. To truly understand what sets our CZ jewelry apart, you must first learn how it is made. Let\u2019s take a closer look:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Formulation: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Each of our cubic zirconia is made from the highest quality raw materials available. The process of creating CZ was originally discovered in Russia in the 1970\u2019s, utilizing laser technology. This unique technique produced CZ with a purity of level 99.9%. Soon after they were discovered, these breathtaking, virtually flawless stones were introduced into the jewelry industry. Today, the majority of CZ manufactured is not made using the superior Russian formula or the quality raw materials required to produce <a title=\"high quality cz\" href=\"http:\/\/www.birkatelyon.com\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">high quality CZ<\/a>. These low quality stones are damaged easily and develop a cloudy appearance overtime. This is why we choose to continue formulating our CZ jewelry with the original Russinan formula and superior raw materials. Each and every Birkat Elyon cubic zirconia is formulated to be the very best in the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cutting Technique:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hand-cut cubic zirconia jewelry gives off a luminosity that is actually more brilliant than fine diamonds. Mass produced CZ jewelry is machine-cut, producing a lower quality piece.\u00a0 At Birkat Elyon each and every CZ is hand-cut with the same precision used by master gemologists when cutting fine diamonds. Each stone is then individually inspected with a special magnifying glass and all imperfect stone are discarded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Polishing Technique: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Each Birkat Elyon cubic zirconia is then hand-polished, with the same precision used in polishing fine diamonds. This technique produces a thinner, more brilliant girdle. Unlike machine-but CZ, our cubic zirconia is polished using the finest and most effective materials available, bringing out the unrivaled brilliance of our CZ jewelry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Settings:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, each of our dazzling cubic zirconia are placed in superior quality setting. Our customers choose from 14K gold, 18K gold and platinum settings, ensuring that their CZ jewelry truly has the look of the finest jewelry on the market today.<\/p>\n<p>There you have it, the Birkat Elyon difference.\u00a0 Our unrivaled attention to detail, keeps our customers coming back for life.<\/p>\n<p>Interested in learning more about our superior quality CZ jewelry?
