According to a recent article on the WeddingChannel.com, Cubic Zirconia Wedding Rings are “more friend than faux” – and we have to agree!

"Today more and more couples are choosing to use [simulated diamonds] in their engagement rings and wedding" jewelry,” states the Wedding Channel… “They are so brilliant and beautiful that even “Hollywood” has been snapping them up.”

The reason for this of course is simple: cz diamond rings have come a long way since they first arrived on the scene, when any discerning person could spot them a mile away. Now, “the naked eye cannot distinguish a high-quality simulated diamond from a mined one” – and Cubic Zirconia Engagement Rings and Cubic Zirconia Wedding Bands are not only astoundingly beautiful but super-affordable!

Another great reason to choose Cubic Zirconia Wedding Rings - you don’t have to worry that the symbol of your marriage and love came at the price of blood. In case you didn’t see the recent film Blood Diamond – a blood diamond refers to “a diamond mined in a war zone and sold, usually clandestinely, in order to finance an insurgent or invading army's war efforts.” Virtual slave labor is used to mine such diamonds. For example – according to Amnesty International, “Many of the prisoner-laborers who work Sierra Leone's open-pit mines end up in shallow graves, executed for suspected theft, for lack of production, or simply for sport.” Most of these prisoner-laborers are children.
