The engagement ring is a symbol of the love between two people. Through it, they testify eternal fidelity and love until death do them part…at least it is in the movies. The manufacture of an engagement ring does not differ in anything from the production of an ordinary ring. The only difference is the message that it brings. In most cases, engagement rings are decorated with a special message on the inside, through which couples express their love for one another.
The traditions
In each country the customs of wearing an engagement ring are different. For example, in Europe, the engagement ring must be worn on the left hand on the ring finger, and at the wedding is moved to the right, while in the U.S., the ring rests solely on the left hand. Their construction in most cases is individual, according to customer preferences, but the market has also standard models that are made for such cases. The ring can be made of various materials, but usually, for an engagement ring, many couples stop at the production of precious materials such as gold, diamond, platinum, or another. As you may have heard the most important is love, but believe me if you do not invest in the right ring, your spouse can remain to put it mildly “surprised” about the power of your love because when it comes to love, money does not matter!
The unwritten rules for jewelry and the engagement rings
There are some unwritten rules that you need and is better to comply with the selection of an engagement ring with a diamond. Firstly, you should choose a ring that has at least an 18-carat diamond. It is important to know that the carats do not measure the size of the ring but the weight, but you will easily navigate according to the price, since the expensive diamonds are sold at a higher price per carat because they occur less frequently and are more valued. Consider the color of the diamond. The more featureless it is, the better quality. Diamonds come in a wide variety of colors. There are all kinds – yellow, green, red, blue, pink, etc. The purity of the diamond also is of great importance. In this case, do not look at whether it’s dirty or something. Purity means the number and size of the impurities, which are used for making it, which means that the fewer they are, the more valuable it is opposite, and analogously the opposite. There is a scale for purity, according to it, the best quality diamonds are determined with a sign “F” and the diamonds from the lowest class with a sign “I1, I2, I3”.
Which would you choose depends entirely on your desire and your budget.
