Do you remember when all the jewellery your dad had was his wedding ring, his dad's gold seal, perhaps a gold watch and gold chain with a cross or medal? And most likely he inherited from grandpa, for he wouldn't go to a jewellery to buy himself gold. Oh well, he also had a couple of cuff-links that grandma got him for a birthday, but he rarely used them. He would have never considered even wearing a gold bracelet; after all, bracelets are for women. In those days, when a man would wear earrings, he was considered effeminate or marginal, someone you should stay away from and not trust. Well, things have changed, haven't they?
About ten years ago, suddenly many young men started piercing their ears and wearing rings. As they grew older, some used gold earrings for special occasions, but not to go to work. Gold bracelets and silver bracelets become more common amongst men. A new trend of jewellery just for men started to develop and now it is a booming market. Men love jewellery! It is not an exclusively feminine field anymore.
As global recession gets worse, the price of gold skyrockets and the salaries are not so dependable, mens jewellery has turned to less noble metals with great success. Sterling Silver, Titanium, Zirconium, all those metal looking colors seem to fit their masculinity. After all, a ring of titanium sounds hard core and Silver Sterling sounds very solid.
Silver sterling is 92.5% pure silver and an alloy of 7.5% copper, gold, platinum, nickel, etc. to make silver harder and more durable.
There are innumerable online sterling silver jewellery shops where you can find affordable mens silver rings for your man. He will appreciate anything coming from you, as he knows you have good taste and are also a saving and responsible woman.
Perhaps he would like a solitary? A solitary is a diamond mounted on a thick gold ring. But nowadays you can buy a sterling silver solitary Cubic Zirconia diamond ring, which is a very good choice of stone for a man's ring. Cubic Zirconia are synthetic diamonds that look just like the real thing but without the high price.

The Medal $3.95 Life during and after the American Civil War was a torrent of hardship and misery. Drawing upon extensive research, Richard Galloway's novel, "The Medal," is an endearing fictional account of one soldier's personal triumph through combat, POW life, slavery, personal conflicts, romance, and, most importantly, loved ones--lost and found. The United States is in the midst of the Civil War, and Simon Bolivar Ramsey is a Union private in the 100th Regiment, New York State Volunteers. In addition to his loved ones back home, Simon has something even more. He carries his father's medal, a talisman that protects him through battles and internment. While in Andersonville, the most brutal of all Southern prisoner-of-war camps, the beloved medal is stolen. Following a dramatic escape, Simon falls victim to amnesia, is given a new identity, and begins a second life on a Confederate widow's Georgia plantation. Then, through a strange twist of fate, the medal reenters Simon's life, spurring partial memories and the revelation that his life has just begun. Will Simon be reunited with his past, or will his future leave a lasting impression on generations to come? Follow Simon on his journey to a surprising conclusion as he seeks to find true meaning and--ultimately--his true self. |
