HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR DIAMOND SOLITAIRE RING?
The diamond solitaire ring highlights this precious stone. It is the jewel par excellence for engagements or marriage proposals because elle symbolizes infinite love. But jewelers offer a very large number of models. So, to help you make your choice, we give you some wise advice!
The type of diamond solitaire ring
There are several types of solitaires that you need to know about in order to choose your ring correctly. We thus distinguish the solitaire which is a ring on which a stone is set in its center from the shoulder or accompanied diamond solitaire which is set with a diamond in its center and small diamonds adorn all or part of the body of the ring.
The choice of the diamond
If you choose to offer a diamond solitaire ring, you will see that this stone can take different aspects. To select the one that will meet your expectations, here are the criteria to consider regarding the diamond:
● The carat of the diamond: This corresponds to its weight. It is good to know that one carat is equivalent to 0.20 g. To make a good choice, keep in mind that a small-sized stone will be perfect for a person with thin fingers. If she has long, manicured fingers, a larger stone is preferable. However, it should also be known that the more important the diamond, the higher its price.
● The color of the diamond: The color of the stone adorning a diamond solitaire ring is defined by a letter ranging from D to Z. For a good reference, from M, it is considered to be strongly tinted. It has a lower price than the one classified D. Moreover, those that have no trace of yellow reflection are the rarest and therefore the most expensive.
● The shape of the diamond: The round cut is the one that gives the most sparkle to the diamond. However, your diamond solitaire ring can also have an emerald cut stone, cushion cut or princess cut. The choice here is above all a matter of personal taste and the style sought for this jewel. In any case, it is important to have a quality cut that ensures your diamond an excellent brilliance as we explain to you on this page. Indeed, if it is "lifeless", it loses all its interest, yet it is the centerpiece of a diamond solitaire ring.
The choice of the ring for the ring
Choosing the metal is the second important aspect when you are going to buy this jewel. Platinum, yellow gold, rose gold, white gold, silver... The color of the ring should be in harmony with that of the stone. Thus, if you opt for a yellow gold ring, it is not necessary to have a D category diamond as the color of the metal is reflected in the stone. On the other hand, if you prefer a white gold ring, it is essential to associate it with a stone that is not yellow in reflection.
Moreover, you should also take into account the skin tone of the person to whom you are going to offer this diamond solitaire ring. If you are not sure what to choose, know that rose gold harmonizes perfectly with all skin colors.
All that remains is to choose the right size for the ring. For this, there is only one way: measure the finger. We advise you to do this at the end of the day and under normal temperature conditions in order to obtain the best precision.
