In life, not only young people like to wear jewelry, but also old people like it. However, the elderly will be more cautious when wearing jewelry. They not only require good moral meaning, but also choose some elegant jewelry, which can not only be decorative, but also be a blessing for both happiness and longevity. So what kind of jewelry is suitable for the elderly? Let's have a look
What kind of jewelry is suitable for the elderly?
1、 Gold
Gold is a natural value equivalent, so its investment performance is particularly good. If you buy, it is recommended to buy brand pure gold products. The color, ductility and permanent non-corrosion of gold make it the favorite of the elderly, especially the color of gold, which is more suitable for the skin of the middle-aged and elderly. The elderly wear gold jewelry. It is recommended to wear heavier jewelry. In addition, gold is also the most suitable material for other jewelry, such as the chain of necklace and the base of gem.
2、 Tourmaline

Its color is bright and varied, and can scatter the surrounding light well, so its appearance is very rich and magnificent. Tourmaline of good quality is more expensive than diamond. Tourmaline, as a natural wealth, was favored by the royal family of the Qing Dynasty, so its cultural connotation is also quite rich. It is one of the most advanced gemstones in the jewelry collection of middle-aged and elderly people, and has strong collection value, and the price is rising year by year. Tourmaline is suitable for making ring face or pendant.
3、 Hotan jade
Hotan jade, also known as Chinese jade, has a long history. Since the Tang Dynasty, jade has a unique Chinese temperament. In China, Hotan jade is the first of the four famous jade. It is the so-called "gentleman is as gentle as jade". Hotan jade has always been a symbol of good morality in China. There are fewer and fewer high-quality jades produced in Hotan, so the value has increased dozens of times in recent 20 years. Moreover, with the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for Hotan jade is also increasing, and its price will only rise. Therefore, Hotan jade collection is a good long-term investment. For the middle-aged and the elderly, the high whiteness white jade bracelet with skin is the best collection. The delicate and introverted white jade is like condensed fat, which makes people love it. It also shows the tenderness and tranquility of Chinese women. It is one of the jewelry that Chinese women must have in their life. In terms of color and material, in addition to white jade, Hotan Jasper has high value. In addition to bracelets, high-quality jade cards are also a good choice. In addition to high-quality large ornaments, most small shaped white jade can only be enjoyed and played, and has no investment value. In addition, in recent years, fake Hotan jade has emerged one after another. Other carbonatite and quartz jade are easy to fake Hotan jade. If there is no professional appreciation knowledge, it is recommended to buy jade with national appraisal certificate through formal channels.
4、 Emerald
Jadeite, like Hotan jade, is the jade of the East. The cultural heritage comes from the love of the Royal high-level since the Qing Dynasty, especially the preference of Cixi and other royal families for jadeite in the late Qing Dynasty, which makes this bright jade shine. Jadeite is characterized by rich colors. Almost all the colors existing in the world can be found in jadeite. In addition, jadeite is a kind of jadeite with particularly bright and gorgeous characteristics, and its lightness is particularly good. Therefore, good jadeite is often particularly shiny, and its hardness is higher than Hotan jade. This kind of jade is a symbol of high-grade jade in the Chinese community. Of course, as a high-grade jade, jadeite has high requirements for quality. Generally, there are many requirements for seed, water, color and bottom. The transparency and brightness determine the price of jadeite. Those dark and defective Jadeites are worthless, even ordinary stones. But precious jadeite is often priceless. Jadeite is the most noble green and the most advanced full green jadeite. The value of ten grams of ring face can be worth hundreds of millions. Generally speaking, the color is one point higher and the price is ten times higher. The aesthetics and collection of jadeite has the most profound heritage in China. It is very safe for middle-aged and elderly people to wear and collect jadeite. Wearing dark green jadeite bracelets and rings is gorgeous and deep. Even people who don't understand jewelry are often attracted by the glorious beauty of jadeite for a moment, but if they buy jadeite, It puts forward very high requirements for the appreciation ability of jadeite. In the emerald industry, counterfeiting and manual processing are very popular. At present, only A-goods high-quality bracelets and ring faces are suitable for the elderly to collect and wear. Large jade ornaments are often difficult to pass the quality. They are basically cut into bracelets and ring faces. As for jadeite gambling stone, it is recommended that the elderly do not try.
In addition to the above four, emerald, sapphire and ruby are also good jewelry choices for the elderly. However, it is not recommended for the elderly to buy and invest in diamonds, agate jade and amber organic gemstones, as well as some jade and gemstones hyped in recent years. These jewelry and jade are either too much hype factors and not suitable for investment, or the output is excessive, and the means of counterfeiting are difficult to distinguish; There is also the short-term speculation of jewelry and jade, which often lacks cultural heritage and broad market. The price and artistic quality are unstable, so it is not recommended to buy and invest.
What should the elderly pay attention to when wearing jewelry?
(1) Wealth: the elderly have worked hard all their life, dedicated their body and mind and nurtured their offspring. In the rest of their old age, they should be respected by people. When the elderly choose to use jewelry, it is generally appropriate to choose pure gold jewelry. First, pure gold keeps its value and enables the elderly to rely on their life. Second, pure gold jewelry is mostly stamped with the words' Fu, Lu, Shou, auspicious and ruyi ', which gives the elderly a spiritual comfort and makes them feel happy and peaceful. Tianyuan ring, square ring, emerald ring and dragon and Phoenix bracelet are more suitable, while trendy jewelry such as diamonds and pearls and fake jewelry made of emerging alloy materials are obviously not suitable for the elderly.
(2) Concise: the jewelry used by adults and young people is exquisitely inlaid and matched, while the jewelry used by the elderly is different. In terms of decoration, jewelry in old age should not be too much, too complicated and too miscellaneous.

(3) Sustenance: most old people have nostalgic feelings. They are often deeply attached to traditional jewelry such as inlaid treasure rings, dragon and Phoenix lock pieces, Jasper hairpins, agate and Buddha beads. These traditional and simple jewelry can bring them good memories of their old life. Choosing to use old-fashioned jewelry is not common in jewelry stores in downtown areas. If you walk into antique stores or cultural relics stores, it is not difficult to find them. These jewelry belonging to cultural relics and antiques are more valuable than those in general jewelry stores. It not only meets the nostalgic feelings of the elderly, but also meets the needs of preserving and accumulating wealth.
(4) Convenience: most of the elderly people are not very handy with their fingers. They should choose to use the head cloth with convenient switches such as buckle and s hook, and try not to use the jewelry with cumbersome small switches such as confluence roll and bracelet door buckle. In this way, the elderly can take care of themselves when using jewelry. In addition, the size of ornaments used by the elderly should not be too small.
