Diamond Engagement Rings

Styles in wedding rings, engagement rings and diamond rings have changed along with the times over the years, but some designs and styles have remained strong and solid. The diamond solitaire engagement ring is a huge favorite and who can resist the impact which this diamond ring offers.


   


While most brides follow the Four C’s to determine what type of diamond they want, the type of metal for their engagement ring is usually more of an afterthought. But the metal used in your engagement and wedding ring set holds the diamonds in place and influences the overall appearance of the rings so it should be thought out.

For decades, the solitaire diamond engagement ring with a yellow gold setting was pretty standard for the jewelry industry. And silver, a less-valued metal, was usually reserved for gifts and less sacred occasions. Then white gold and platinum came along, and with palladium recently added to the mix, today’s bride has far more options. But how do you know which metal is right for the ring style you have chosen?

Lifestyle, preference and the overall style of the engagement ring should all be considered when deciding which metal will work best for your ring. Deciding which metal works best for your engagement ring is a big decision. Choose your precious metal wisely.

The three stone diamond engagement ring styles have also remained popular and many still believe that this signifies ‘I Love You’.

Diamonds are Forever - in Pop Culture

Diamonds are forever – those words have become an integral part of a diamond’s mystique and its symbolism of lasting, committed relationships. But are diamonds really forever? The prestige of associating diamonds with the eternal has grown, including world-renowned De Beers adopting the slogan “a diamond is forever” as one of their corporate icons.



A Diamond’s True Age

Diamonds may truly be eternal and their true age is as close to forever as most people can ever hope to achieve. Diamonds are formed through millennia of geological processes involving intense heat and pressure, and today’s diamonds measure billions of years old. Because of that longevity even under adverse circumstances, diamonds have come to be associated with strong, stable relationships, hence the stone’s natural association with engagements and weddings, through which diamond rings have come to symbolize lifelong commitments.
