Engagement Rings & Diamonds, Wherefor art thou Romeo?


Are you engaged? Or are you still talking about marriage? Have you chosen an engagement ring and wedding bands? Do you know which end is up and what's the date today? NO??? Then you must be in LOVE! Shall we begin with the ancient custom of giving engagement rings.. or jump into a detailed discussion of gold jewelry and diamond grading... many couples have their first fights over picking out an engagement ring... how can we avoid that?

You don't have to be an expert to pick out a beautiful ring you both will cherish forever. Here are a few tips from a former diamond cutter, jeweler and diamond appraiser to help you both choose the right ring and make the experience a cherished memory of this exciting moment in your lives.

First off, decide what type of ring you want to purchase. A diamond engagement ring? It's the most popular although I also sold emerald and ruby engagement rings. There's a saying, "You can't see the forest for the trees." It's the same situation when buying an engagement ring.. The more unrealistic rings you look at THE HARDER it is to choose the one meant for you.

If you already know you want a diamond engagement ring, don't look at rubies and sapphires. If your heart is set on a pear shaped diamond, don't try on round cut solitaires.. Can't decide if you want a diamond or a ruby and feel like trying on every ring the store... Halleluiah... you're in LOVE! Click here for more handy tips on buying your own diamond engagement ring.

The fact that Archduke Maximillian of Hamburg started the trend among the European wealthy and royalty of giving diamond engagement rings is all well and good... but this is the internet age and it's a brand new world...

So let's skip the history of how the Kimberley diamond mine was discovered and why De Beers controls diamonds sales and focus on what you need to know when purchasing your engagement ring.

Today, the purchase of certified diamonds is a common and wise practice since the quality of the diamond is the most important and difficult thing for the average diamond buyer to determine. Purchasing a certified diamond takes the worry out of buying and actually helps couples get the best looking and largest stone for the money.

Click on the left menu to go over the different cuts of diamonds - Marquise cut, Radiant cut, Emerald cut and Princess cut. The qualities of diamonds from flawless to flawed... the colors and what to reasonably choose that looks best on her finger and only an diamond expert could tell the difference when she is wearing it...
