"Neodymium Jewelry - Ultra-Strong Magnets and Modern Elegance"

A unique twist on a popular idea, neodymium jewelry uses no clasps, and no strings. The only thing holding the jewelry together are the ultra-strong magnets themselves. People are definitely fascinated by both the look and the design concept.

Neodymium magnets, also known as rare earth magnets, have been used in industry for years where high strength is required from light-weight magnets. They are used in a wide variety of products such as professional speakers, hard disks, headphones, and guitar pick-ups.

In the last few years neodymium has found its way into another type of product, and become popular as magnetic jewelry. When placed side by side with other types of magnetic jewelry, they certainly stand out as unique.

Similar to magnetic jewelry made from hematite or magnetite, they're sold as magnetic necklaces, bracelets, or anklets. Unlike other magnets used in making magnetic jewelry, however, they're strong enough to bind to each other using only their magnetic fields.

In fact, neodymium may be the ideal component of magnetic jewelry, in that it is extremely strong for its size and weight. Unlike those pieces made of hematite or magnetite, these magnets are so strong they require no strings or wire. Since they can be opened by separating the magnets at any location, they also require no clasp.

Various shapes, thickness, and color options can be combined to form a wide variety of styles. All of this makes them interesting, unique and flexible. If you're buying for magnetic therapy purposes, there is the obvious benefit of strong magnets.

Neodymium can be gold or silver plated, black, or coated in nickel. While other colors may be possible, the nickel coating seems to hold up much better than either gold or silver plating, and gives the jewelry a silvery shine with an industrial look.

Appealing to both men and women, they are high-tech as well as elegant. All in all, they have a personality that is classy and modern all at the same time.

The end result of all of this is that you end up with an ultra-strong, relatively light weight, modern but classy piece of magnetic jewelry. In addition, neodymium jewelry can be a fun product to own, and quite the conversation piece.
