3 Stone Diamond Rings – Why They Are So Popular

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

Diamond rings have been around for quite some time and are the standard for engagement rings as well as anniversary rings for those couples that have been together a long time. But 3 stone diamond rings despite their amazing popularity have not been around very long and are only a recent new design from the De Beers Company.

Many men are choosing the three stone diamond design when they are shopping at their jewellers for the engagement ring they will propose with. These gorgeous rings use three stones that are either identical in size of the middle stone may be slightly larger.

The stones can be mounted in just about any type of band to suit the particular tastes of the couple to finish out the look. But many are choosing silver or even more exotic materials such as titanium for the band and accompany this with a matching wedding band for him and her.

The three stones are more than just a pretty way to decorate the engagement ring since each has its own meaning. Also called the Trinity Rings for this reason the 3 stones represent the past, present and future love the couple shares for one another.

Many couples of Irish heritage are choosing  Celtic engagement rings with a Trinity knot motif. The connection between the Trinity of the 3 diamonds and the significance of the Trinity knot, coupling to create an even deeper meaning for them.

Pave Diamond Rings For A Unique Diamond Look

Friday, October 30th, 2009

For those who want a diamond ring that is more than just a shiny band with a nice stone setting with maybe a few accents a pave diamond ring may be the ideal choice. Pave diamond rings are chocked full of gorgeous diamonds and come in a variety of designs that are truly eye-catching.

Just as the name implies this style of ring is literally paved with diamonds meaning that no part of the band is visible in some styles. Diamonds are placed closely together creating a sort of cobblestone road, which completely encircles the finger. This look is popular not only for engagement rings but rings for giving her on a special occasion.

Pave diamond rings come in full or half pave designs with the stones either completely or partially covering the band. These rings can also feature a diamond setting ideal for engagement rings or can be simple bands of diamonds perfect for wedding rings or anniversary presents.

A pave diamond ring may come across as more expensive due to the amount of diamonds that go into creating them. But in reality since many small diamonds are used as opposed to one large one the cost can actually be a little less than a traditional diamond ring on a metal band.

Engagement Rings In The Princess Cut Style

Friday, September 25th, 2009

For many diamond engagement ring buyers the choice in diamond cut is not usually something they truly understand. Many hear about round brilliant cut stones as well as the contemporary princess cut diamonds but do not really understand the difference between the two.

For years round brilliant cut stones dominated the market sales and they do still make up the bulk of engagement ring sales. But in the 1960’s a new square cut style was created which brought out the shine of the diamond and it retained 80% of the original stone.

This was significant since it allowed the buyer to get all the sparkle from a quality diamond in their ring and saved money by keeping the stone at a bigger size. By using a square diamond cut combined with a profile of an inverted pyramid more of the original stone is retained.

While traditional round stones still dominate the engagement ring market, princess cut diamond rings are quickly catching on with those who want a more modern appearing stone in their setting. This unforgettable stone looks exceptional in a modern styled band made with a more exotic material yet it still fits beautifully into a classic gold band.

Engagement Ring Sizing

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Deciding to ask the woman you love is a big step and many times men will think up the most romantic way possible to present her an engagement ring and ask the question. Of course nothing will spoil this romantic atmosphere quicker than diamond engagement rings that do not fit.

But if you purchase the ring at the jewellery store without your future fiancé, just how do you make sure you are buying a ring that will fit? The fit does not have to be perfect but it will need to go onto her finger and cannot be too loose either or your proposal will just not be perfect.

If a gentleman is lucky she will have a ring in her jewellery box that does fit and this can be used as a guide for buying that engagement ring. The inside of this ring can be traced onto paper for a guide the jeweller can use.

Another idea is to use a piece of string to get her finger size while she is taking a nap. While others have used costume jewellery to get the closest estimate on what size to get that diamond engagement ring.

While the ring does not have to fit exactly for the day you propose since it can be resized later to exactly what she needs. You do want to make sure the ring you will be down on your knee with is as close as possible for the most romantic proposal.
