Every girl wants one. It is a dream all women have. Getting that perfect diamond engagement ring that will glitter and shine forever shows her how much she is really loved. An engagement ring is often very important to a woman. Choosing and buying the right wedding and engagement ring can be daunting if you don’t know anything about diamonds.
Facts about Diamonds Diamonds come in all shapes, sizes and colors. A true diamond will be anywhere from bright white to a glittering yellow. With the use of treatments, it is now possible to get colored diamonds. The quality and cost of a colored diamond is less than a white diamond, but many are choosing these just to have something different. Shop around a bit before you decide on a style, carat and cut of your wedding and engagement rings. Buying them in a set can often cost less than buying them separately. Talk to the geologist or jewelry expert to get your questions answered about the best choices for you.
Some things to look for When you start that hunt for the perfect diamond, you need to have an idea what you want. Consider all the different sizes and styles that are available. Also, review carefully the prices and payment plans that are being offered. Talk to a respected geologist about the different types of diamonds available, the different colors, shapes and sizes to get a better understanding on what to look for. Ask about settings, certificates, cuts, carat size and treatments before choosing a set. Look through many different styles and sets. True diamonds always differ. No two diamonds are exactly the same. They come from different mines and come in different weights, sizes and shapes. Each diamond will have its own inclusions, some that will make it more brilliant and others that just need a little treatment. Check for certificates to make sure the diamonds are just that diamonds. If you don’t see a setting you like, ask to look at individual cut diamonds out of the settings. You may find exactly what you are wanting and a professional jeweler will be able to show you what settings will work.
Sizing and Guarantee Getting the ring size right saves time getting resized, however resizing is free. Choose the metal that you feel will last the longest, look the best and compliment your diamonds. Gold and platinum are the best choices. Silver and gold plated are softer metals that do not hold a diamond for very long. Make sure there is a guarantee or warranty on the rings. Usually the problem with returning an engagement ring has to do with the setting and not the diamond itself. Most rings brought back are easily fixed to the customer’s satisfaction by putting the diamond in a different setting. Also, have your diamonds insured. Diamonds will always be one of the riches that people will desire. Getting the wedding and engagement rings you desire is not hard if you do some preparation and research first.
