Mens Pendants, Meaning Dominates Metal And Gemstone
Friday, October 23rd, 2009Importance Of Concept In Men’s Pendants.
The price and even metal with which a mens pendant is made is something that is secondary. A recent report published brought up some interesting and useful bits of information. Men when looking for their pendant already have a meaning and significance attached to the jewel. For example, a man looking for a religious pendant already knows that he needs a cross pendant. It is unlikely that he would change his mind even though he came across an excellent dragon pendant. So the concept and theme for a man pendant is something the buyer already has in mind.
The second issue that men will consider when choosing a gold or sterling silver pendant is the basic dimensions of the jewel. Expect mens pendants to have larger dimensions as compared to ladies pendants. For example, a cross pendant for a man would be in the 2 to 3 inch size range. On the other hand, a ladies cross pendant might be in the 1 to 1.5 inch range. Durability has always dominated the discussion for mens jewellery, the same is true of mens pendants too. Good metal weight proportionate to the dimensions of the pendant is important. Combine this with the fact that mens pendants would be quite large and you will agree that, gold pendants can carry stiff price tags. This does not pose much of a problem for men, since over 70% of the mens pendants sold each year are made in silver and not gold. If the meaning and significance of the pendant are intact and the dimensions satisfy him, a man is more than willing to give up gold and embrace silver.
When it comes to stones and diamonds, similar trends have been followed. While birth stone rings are quite popular among men, not much of gems and diamonds is seen in good mens pendants. Plain silver pendants are what men prefer the most. Textures and other surface finishings add to the interest of such plain pendants for men. The pebble texture of the MPN12 Kaisilver mens cross pendant was what pushed up the demand for this jewel. Another interesting concept about this pendant is that, the front and back have the same design.
Talking about meaning of men’s pendants, one should remember that it was the story behind the Kaisilver Hayabusa pendant that gave it market attention. While the concept originated in Japan, you can today see both gold and silver Hayabusa pendants made by Kaisilver being worn across the globe. This supports the claims made by the mens pendant report we talked about earlier. Hayabusa is the name of a falcon, this bird is well known for it’s speed and accuracy in catching it’s prey. Suzuki the automobile manufacturer used this concept and named a motorcycle with the same name, hayabusa. When the Japanese government was looking for a name for one of it’s critical space missions, the name hayabusa was given preference. The mission was launched to study the movement on the planet from above.
