Tips To Fine the Perfect
Engagement Ring

An engagement ring is usually a
considerable expense, so you want to
make sure you do it right. Whether
he's going out on his own or you'll be
heading out shopping together, this
extensive guide is key to finding the
perfect engagement ring.

Choose a Metal for Your Band
Traditionally, engagement rings are
made from yellow gold, white gold,
silver, or platinum. It's important to
note, however, that silver and platinum
look almost the same, but platinum
costs significantly more. So consider
your lifestyle and budget before
buying.

Narrow Down What Shape You Want
If you know what you want in terms of
diamond shape, that helps focus your
engagement ring hunt immensely. Every
shape (or cut) is priced differently and each
has a different price per carat. Round cuts
are the most expensive whereas pear and
marquis are less expensive.

Have a Carat Size in Mind
The age old question of quality versus
quantity also applies to engagement
rings; some people prefer a larger stone
to a whiter stone, while others want the
absolute clearest possible diamond,
despite the carat count.

Get Measured Correctly
You don't want a ring that's cutting off
your circulation or, even worse, so loose
it's at risk of falling off. It should feel snug
but comfortable. So get measured
correctly.

Always Buy Certified
When you both finally land on a dream
ring, make sure you buy a certified stone
from an accredited laboratory such as the
American Gem Society or the
Gemological Institute of America.
