Choosing The Right Rhinestone Chokers

By Marci Glover


The term rhinestone refers to rock crystals. These rock crystals were extracted from the river Rhine and thus they were literally stones from the river Rhine. The stones shine and resemble diamonds and are used for a number of purposes, everything from costumes to car wheels. A great example of stylish jewellery you may want to purchase are rhinestone chokers.

In modern times glass and other materials are used rather than extracted stones from a river bed. These materials are shaped in a similar way to diamonds so that you get similar cuts and a similar shine to using a real diamond. They are often used in place of real diamonds because to use real diamonds would be far too expensive. However less expensive does not necessarily need to mean something that does not look effective.

In the modern era rhinestones are more likely to be made from glass or cheaper crystals as opposed to river extracted stones. The idea is that they closely resemble diamonds and so can create a similar effect to wearing diamonds. This means you can get the effective shimmer and shine without spending a large amount.

As with any form of jewellery chokers different types can be worn with different clothes. It is about sensible coordination and making sure that what you are wearing matches together in a sensible way. This will allow you to show off your ensemble and can often accentuate the clothes and highlight the best bits while hiding the less flattering aspects due to the nature of how the stones reflect the light.

A choker is a necklace that is worn high on the neck. It can often be used as a way of complementing what people wear. For example if you wear a turtleneck sweater it can look a bit severe. Adding a choker can complement the sweater and the additional shine of the stones can add a bit of brightness.

Equally you can match your jewellery with your hair. For example people with long blond hair can complement their hairdo with a thinner band. This tends to work better than larger items of jewellery as the simple style tends to complement the bigger hair more than bigger necklaces.

Using rhinestone can also be effective as an alternative to all metal. The combination of a silk chord or leather can be a better look as you get the firmness without being overly aggressive that an all metal item may convey. It may sound like an excessive interpretation but this is often how people subconsciously react to what people wear.

You can find numerous companies online that sell chokers. It is recommended that you compare a number of different options. You should also look for feedback online from people who have purchased items from companies in order to get feedback on the quality of their items and customer service as this will help you to find more reliable companies and better quality products. With the right approach you will be able to find the best one to suit you.
