Hip Hop Jewelry - Iced Out BLING

Hip Hop jewelry is a natural fit with discount diamonds. Here is were we get the idea and feeling behind the popular words “bling – bling”. Bling – bling and iced out have become popular expressions in our culture. For many people hip hop is more than just a style or a fashion tend. Hip hop music speaks to them and they they can express themselves through hip hop fashion. Hip hop jewelry can be fun and playful but for many people it is deeply personal, an expression of something that is deeply moving.

Over time a number of pieces have become synonymous with hip hop. Grill work is probably the most in your face example – and no, we are not talking about your car. Removable grillwork is sets of gold or platinum tooth caps that are molded to fit your teeth. A silicone mold is made by the customer to ensure a tight fit. If you have ever had a mouth guard for football or hockey the process is pretty much the same. Plain 24k gold over solid brass or set with diamonds, these are made for people who want to smile a lot!

If you are planning to check grillwork out for yourself remember that this is temporary tooth jewelry. This means that it needs to be taken out before eating, drinking even sleeping. This is just for show, and can pose a chocking hazard if not removed before any activity that can knock it loose.

Now considered old school, are the gold and platinum chains so familiar to us. Most of these chains are gold plated and start at about 36”. To give you an idea of the price difference between a solid gold chain and a plated one; the solid chains usually cost more per inch than the gold plated version costs by the yard. If you have the cash solid is the way to go.

These chains are worn by themselves or with pendants. Personalized tags are also popular. While chains are probably the most widely seen aspect of hip hop jewelry they are really only one aspect. Iced out tags and watches come in too many styles to mention. Multi finger brass knuckle style rings are also popular. These can be personalized as well and come in plated or solid gold with CZ’s or real diamonds.

When shopping for Hip Hop jewelry the sky is the limit. Custom pieces can be ordered. If you have the budget and the imagination you can wear the style. When in doubt – ice it out!
