How To Choose The Right Ring

Choosing the right ring for you and your spouse is important as for most people it is a lifelong investment and a huge part of their lives. Rings come in many different shapes, sizes, colors and designs that will blow your mind but you have to choose the perfect one. Here’s how:-

1. Set a budget

Rings can range anywhere from $200 to millions of dollars. It is up to you to decide how much are you willing to spend on your ring. This will narrow down options for you and it will be less of a hassle.

2. Do your research

As mentioned before, rings come in many shapes and sizes and to choose correctly you should know the 4 C’s – cut, color, carat and clarity. These will give you a detailed layout of how diamonds are made so you can choose one that seems fit for you.

3. Decide your style

You will get an idea of how rings can be after doing research. Sit down with your fiance and discuss the kind of ring you desire. Do you want a big diamond or small? A Gold band or a platinum one? Do you want any gemstones? Do you want it to be simple or extravagant? It will all come down to what you want it to be and how you want it to look.

4. Get advice

After doing research if you are still unsure about what to do, then get some advice. You can ask your parents or any friends who have already done it before and they will be the best guides for you throughout the process.

Here are some suggestions to help you choose the right engagement ring.

1. Consider the finger length x width, ring shape and style

   Whenever you are trying on various diamond rings, keep in mind your finger’s length and width along with the size of your hand. Also, check the shape and size of the diamond studded on it. The width and style of the ring is also an important parameter to consider.

   You should take into consideration your personal likes and styles that you like.

2. For long fingers

   Long fingers are perfect for engagement rings. Some good choices would be a princess-cut or round stone diamond ring. You can also wear a wide band that complements your finger length.

   Don’t be afraid to wear a bold look if that is what you want! Engagement rings should also be a way for you to express your personal style and taste.

3. For slender fingers

   Your engagement ring should not overshadow your finger. Go for smaller stones that create the illusion of a wider finger. Thick bands are the best option if you want your finger to appear wider.

4. For short fingers

   If you have short fingers, you may be trying to make them look a bit longer. Oval, pear or marquise stones are an an ideal match for you. Medium-sized rectangular emerald-shaped stones can also elongate short fingers. You can also a pick slender, narrow-width bands that suits your personality.

5. For wide fingers

   If you have wide fingers, you may want to select a ring that doesn’t show too much skin on either side of the ring. But you can also try both funky and sophisticated styles according to your preferences.We recommend a wide oval, marquise, rectangular or emerald shaped stone. Don’t go for narrow stones with angular shapes or asymmetrical designs.Round stones that are larger in size look good on wide fingers as well. Finally, we recommend a medium to thick band for your ring.

6. For big knuckles

   If you are someone who has bigger knuckles, you can go for thicker, heavier bands that distract the onlookers from the knuckles and averting direction to the ring. But don’t worry, we are sure any engagement ring that you love, will keep you happy!

7. For small hands

   Small round, princess-cut, oval or heart-shaped stones would fit well if you have small hands. The ring therefore should be smaller in size in order for it to be proportional to your hand.

8. Large hands

   Larger rings are a better option if you have large hands. Try out-of-the-box styles. Bulky rings also look great on larger hands.

In the end, just choose a ring that you love and know that you will be able to wear it for the rest of your life.
