Advice for Men for Buying Diamond Engagement Rings for their Loved Ones
Posted: Jun 30, 2019
Purchasing a diamond engagement ring can often be a confusing and intimidating experience for a man which can be attributed to most men’s disinterest in diamonds. We are providing some simple, straightforward advice for guys who don't have a clue about buying their first diamond engagement ring in New York.
Style of Engagement Ring- The safest option is to go for a simple and elegant gold ring setting with a single diamond set at the top which is called a diamond solitaire engagement ring unless of course your girlfriend/to-be wife has told you she has a particular style in mind. Later, if your beloved wants to choose a fancy setting you can remove the single diamond from this ring and use it as the center diamond in a fancy ring setting without having to sacrifice much on your first investment.
Choosing Color Gold for the Ring- Observe what your girlfriend wears. Most girls have preference towards white gold especially if she has dark hair and tends to wear a lot of black or white clothing.
Size of Diamond- The average engagement ring diamond size is around 1 full carat with round being the most popular shape for the center diamond, followed by princess and oval.
Where to Shop- First and foremost, take a trip to your local mall to become familiar with "The 4 C's" (cut, color, clarity and carat), eventually you’ll be able to judge with your own eyes the difference between the lowest grade diamond, and a high grade expensive diamond. There are retail jewelry stores you can go for, there are plenty of reputable diamond dealers on the internet that you can consider. When considering online shopping, make sure your diamond is certified by one of the reputed gem labs and that the website offers a 30-day no questions asked return policy.
When shopping for diamond engagement rings:
- Set a budget that works for you.
- Understanding the 4Cs is the key to getting the most bang for the buck.
- Of the 4Cs, cut is the most important as the better the cut, the more your diamond will sparkle.
- Opt for near-colorless diamonds instead of absolutely colorless as it’s the absence of color that’s actually the rarest and therefore the most expensive.
- Remember, carat is about weight, not size with prices increasing exponentially with the carat weight going up.
- Explore fancy-shaped diamonds with popular fancy shapes being princess, emerald, asscher, cushion, marquise, radiant, oval, pear and heart. All non-round diamonds are called "fancies."
- You need to make sure your diamond comes with a grading report from the GIA as the finest quality natural diamonds are always independently certified.
- Remember to trust your instincts always, never buy anything under pressure.
