Judith Ripka Rings
-
When I was a little girl, I used to rifle through my mother’s jewelry box and try on her accessories. But what I was definitely most fond of was her rings.
Wearing rings made me feel like my then chubby little hands grew like magic and developed a certain elegance that my 7-year-old self thought was amazing. Years later, I still have a penchant for rings, specifically, Judith Ripka Rings. Here are some of the Judith Ripka Rings that I have in my very own jewelry box.The heirloom inspired Judith Ripka Diamonique cushion ring is actually a cocktail ring that looks like it was handed down from your mother to you. It is made out of several Diamonique diamonds embedded on a pin cushion like center.
A gem and Diamonique ring that comes in four colors (all of which I have) – blue, pink, teal and yellow. This cocktail ring is a definite outfit matcher so best to get all colors just to cover every dress you might have.
A heart ring by Judith Ripka made out of Diamonique simulated diamonds again. Notice that all diamonds are Diamonique made as this is more affordable than the real ones and they look so similar that no one will be able to tell that you are wearing Diamonique diamonds. This ring style comes in white, pink and clear Diamonique diamonds.
Of course, I do have some real diamonds in my trove of rings but in the interest of promoting economic spending coupled with great taste, I chose to share my Judith Ripka Rings in this article.
The items that Judith Ripka loves to experiment and play with are rings. The result of this affection for rings is a wide and sinfully beautiful collection. These pieces, which can be discreet or bold, can really put you in the spotlight. Women especially love how a ring can make them look dainty or sexy or in control. Chunky rings, fine rings or cushion, you can find the perfect one for you in made with the perfection and exquisiteness that is distinctly Judith Ripka.
A Judith Ripka Ring has to have two things: style and class. One of the more popular ring styles that Judith Ripka has is the Monaco Ring. It is a large, chunky ring that comes in many designs, colors and styles. It has wide sides and an almost square center that tapers down to a relatively thinner lower panel. The most innovative and not to mention elegant design is the one made of perfectly cut, polished and mounted black diamonds. This black Monaco ring has an 18 karat pale yellow gold base and a large black onyx mounted as the centerpiece. It is done in a royal paved bezel with black diamonds studded onto the sides. To offset the dark colored piece, the bezel is studded with small, round and brilliant diamonds. It carries a total or 4.07 carats in diamond pieces.Another version of this Monaco Ring that is also very popular is the Blue Quartz. It has the same size and shape as the one with black diamonds, but this time, the 18 karat pale yellow gold base is mounted and designed with sapphires and blue quartz and given an extra kick with round brilliant diamonds. The blue quartz is mounted as the centerpiece and the sapphires are studded all around the ring’s shanks. The royal bezel is lined with round brilliant diamonds. If you want to go a bit feminine on the color, then you can get the Pink Quartz Monaco Ring. The center for this is a rose quartz that is polished and cut to perfection. The royal paved shanks are studded with pink sapphires and the royal bezel is studded, once again, with round brilliant diamonds to break the monotony.
These Monaco Rings are so versatile and diverse. Other styles have turquoise, different colored crystals and other colored quartz with shanks studded with emeralds, diamonds and other precious gems. These rings are perfect and you can pair them with any dress that you want to wear.
Fontaine Rings are also very popular and much more affordable. But with the sterling silver base and different colored crystals and quartz centerpiece, you get that quiet and discreet elegance that speaks of class and taste. Judith Ripka transforms you and your jewelry into an emblem of elegant grace. Other fine and relatively thinner rings are the Pave Center Cushion Ring which has a square centerpiece studded with diamond accents. This piece is also in polished sterling silver with 18 karat pale yellow gold trimmings that line the cushion center piece. There are also other variations of this piece that have different stones found in the Natalie Collection.
Buying Judith Ripka rings or their other jewelries is something that you should not do out of impulse. You should think about this thoroughly and carefully consider all of your options. You have to carefully do it because you do not want to feel regret every time you look at the ring that you bought for several thousands of dollars which you realized you do not really like after a week or so. Weigh the pros and cons of every purchase you will make.And once you have decided for that one Judith Ripka ring that tickles your fancy, then go ahead and buy it. But owning something as precious as a ring entails big responsibilities, such as cleaning and maintaining it. As a ring owner, you have to know how to properly take care of your jewelry. The following tips on how to properly take care of your Judith Ripka rings will make your rings and other jewelries look as good as new all the time.
• Before wearing your ring, make sure that you have done everything that you need to do—apply make up on your face, spray perfume or hairspray, and wear your clothes and shoes. This way, you are sure that your make up such as lipstick or your perfume or hairspray will not come in contact with your ring because these can have chemicals or substances which could affect your ring’s composition.
• When doing any household chores or physical works, make sure that you remove your Judith Ripka ring and keep it in its box or your jewelry box. Imagine how much dirt will be attached to your ring if you wear it while you are gardening or vacuuming, or if you are cleaning the toilet and your ring accidentally slipped off your finger. These instances can be avoided if you are careful when it comes to your ring.
• If you have several Judith Ripka rings or other rings in different styles, metals, and stones, keep each of them in their own small pouches, zip lock bags, or boxes. Make sure that you wrap them first with a soft cloth or tissue. This keeps your rings from having scratches due to contact with other rings.
• If your Judith Ripka ring has a stone, clean by submerging them in warm water with mild soap. Never use detergent. The only exceptions for this are the gemstones Onyx, Coral, Turquoise, and Chalcedony’s. Some people use jewelry cleaners which you can buy from jewelry stores or supermarket. You can use this, too, but keep in mind that this should not be used for pearls, rubies, turquoise, emeralds, lapis, lazuli, corals, and other porous stones. For these special stones, you can clean them using a damp piece of soft cloth. Or if you do not want to take any chances, just take your rings to a professional who can clean these types of gems properly.
• Inspect you Judith Ripka rings before cleaning them. There might be some loose stones which could fall off once you started to wipe or soak them. in handling rings or other jewelries, always be gentle.

Dear Ms. Ripka,
I purchased three of your stcked rings through QVC about 2 years ago.
The pearls on one of the rings fell out and I lost it. I called QVC, and was quite disappointed to be told that they can not repair it.
This is very surprising to me since their customer service is usually excellent.
I like the ring, and its 2 other companions, and am quite disappointed that it can not be fixed. Everytime I wear them I receive compliments about them.
I am appealing to you Ms. Ripka, and hope that I can return it to you for repair
Thanking you in advance for your anticipated cooperation with this important matter.
