Zirconmania launches Diamond-Veneer, a diamond-coated CZ | GemAddicts.comZirconmania, a Los Angeles-based company that specializes in cubic zirconia (CZ) jewelry, has launched a line of specially coated CZ called Diamond Veneer.
The patent pending nanocrystalline diamond coating process is used to create Diamond-Veneer - the world’s only true duplicate looking of a gem diamond. It is virtually impossible to visually identify Diamond-Veneer as anything but a diamond. The only way to positively identify Diamond-Veneer is by its weight, hardness and chemical component. The index of refraction and dispersion of Cubic Zirconia get modified as a result of the Nanocrystalline Diamond Coating Treatment.
The Nanocrystalline Diamond Coating process is the subject of a pending patent in the area of treatment of utility and/or decorative objects with thin film nanocrystalline diamond for the purpose of improving optical and physical properties of materials.
Diamond-Veneer is created by employing a multistep treatment process which involves the application of nanocrystalline diamond particles of size below 50 nm uniformly on all cut surfaces of premium grade white Zirconite cubic zirconia, utilizing proprietary nanodiamond technology. Each Nanodiamond particle is pure diamond with all its optical and physical properties.

Operation Bling
Operation Bling - NJ My Way (njmonthly.com) (njmonthly.com)A year ago, Chris Ferdinand of Morris Township figured out that her mission was not just selling jewelry, but giving it away.
Chris and her husband own Ferdinand Jewelers in New Providence. (www.ferdinandjewelers.com) Through the shop, they get to know customers, but when one of their best clients—a woman named Barbara—stopped coming by, they became concerned. Turned out she was battling ovarian cancer. And when they visited Barbara in the hospital she said “I miss my bling.”
Chris ordered up some sterling rings with cubic zirconia stones—the hospital was not the place for real bling—and brought them to Barbara’s bedside. The woman’s face lit up, and Chris’s idea was soon realized.
Operation Bling (www.operationblingfoundation.org) delivers sparkling and fun jewelry, for free, to hospitalized cancer patients. Now affiliated with four area health care providers (Morristown Memorial, Overlook Hospital, Hackensack University Medical Center, and the Summit Medical Group) Operation Bling is in full swing.
“I’m very honored to be given this mission,” Chris told us. She said the idea came to her during a prayer. The website has posted a prayer list for dozens of cancer patients, and she’s enlisted local churches and synagogues to keep these names in the hearts of their membership.
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, you can stop by the shop in New Providence, and buy a bag of bling, (earrings, bracelets, Chris calls them “stylish, drippy things.”) All of the proceeds are donated to the Foundation. A fundraiser is planned for March 1st, at Il Capriccio Restaurant in Whippany.
“Such a small thing has a huge impact,” Chris says of her efforts. Operation Bling brings some sparkle—pleasure, and fun for those who may need it most.

Zirconmania launches diamond-coated CZ
Los Angeles--Zirconmania, a Los Angeles-based company that specializes in cubic zirconia (CZ) jewelry, has launched a line of specially coated CZ, the company announced in a press release.Zirconmania launches diamond-coated CZ
According to the release, in November, Zirconmania introduced the Diamond-Veneer collection of CZ, which is coated with a thin-film nanocrystalline diamond-coating treatment.
Diamond-Veneer is being presented as a margin-making alternative to diamonds, which are "unaffordable and out of reach in this economy," to moissanite, which is "highly expensive and less attractive due to its color and basic appearance," and to CZ, which "looks too perfect," according to the release.
A patent is pending on the nanocrystalline diamond-coating process, which is intended to improve the optical and physical properties of CZ.
According to the release, Diamond-Veneer is created by employing a multi-step treatment process involving the application of nanocrystalline diamond particles that are less than 50 nm in size on all cut surfaces of premium-grade white Zirconite CZ. Each nanocrystalline diamond particle is said to be pure diamond, possessing all of the stone's optical and physical properties, according to the release.
"It is virtually impossible to visually identify Diamond-Veneer as anything but a diamond," the release states. "The only way to positively identify Diamond-Veneer is by its weight, hardness and chemical component. The index of refraction and dispersion of cubic zirconia get modified as a result of the nanocrystalline diamond-coating treatment."
