Ribbon Diamond Engagement Ring<\/figcaption><\/figure>If you\u2019re thinking of buying that perfect engagement ring for the sweetheart in your life, then look no further than diamond engagement rings. Long considered a classic standard for the engagement ring, diamonds are beautiful gemstones, symbolic of the undying bond between you and the love of your life. <\/p>\n

However, if you don\u2019t know diamond engagement rings from a baseball diamond, then you could use a few pointers from 25karats that will help you ensure that whatever diamond ring you purchase, it will be of the highest-quality and impeccable standards\u2026<\/p>\n

\u2026just like that of your sweetheart!<\/p>\n

Diamond Engagement Ring Cuts<\/strong>. Getting the perfect diamond engagement ring cut can make all of the difference to your future fianc\u00e9e. Remember, this is the perfect engagement ring that she\u2019s been dreaming about since she was a little girl \u2013 and you want to ensure that you get it right! <\/p>\n

There are a multitude of cuts available to the ring shopper \u2013 however, they can all be broken down into three categories: the step cut, the brilliant cut and the mixed cut. The step cut has simplistic incisions made into the face of the diamond, which gives off the appearance of steps (hence the name). This kind of cut gives a romantic vintage look to the diamond, and is popular with stone-shape styles like the emerald, or rectangular, shape. <\/p>\n

The brilliant cut creates a multitude of facets within the diamond, which maximizes the amount of light that the stone reflects; hence, this cut is immensely popular with those who love to optimize the sparkle in their gemstones. Common shapes within this category include the classic round, solitaire and oval diamond engagement rings<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Finally, the mixed cut combines the step and brilliant cuts to form a breathtaking and gorgeous diamond engagement ring. By combining these cuts, the mixed cut minimizes any flaws within the diamond while maximizing the brilliancy of the gemstone. The most common shapes for this cut include the ever-popular princess shape, trillium and heart-shaped diamond engagement rings. <\/p>\n

The Four Cs<\/strong>. Besides the cut of the perfect engagement ring, you\u2019ll need to consider the next three of the four Cs of your diamond: color, clarity and carat. Once you\u2019ve chosen the cut, these other three factors determine the final price and quality of the potential diamond purchase. To further understand these factors, let\u2019s break them down into their respective categories:<\/p>\n

  • The color of the diamond can have a huge influence on the price of the engagement ring. Colorless diamonds (often known as \u201cwhite\u201d diamonds) are the most common \u2013 but hardly so in terms of quality! \u2013 and are usually graded on a D-E-F scale. The latter letters (i.e. G through Z) are also used to determine color, and imply that the diamond has yellowish tints. The more yellow the diamond, the less expensive it will be. Colored diamonds have their own grading system. Fluorescence can also affect color, as seemingly colorless diamonds can appear yellow under this type of light.
    \n <\/br><\/p>\n
  • The carat of the diamond will probably be more familiar to you, as the higher the carat weight, the more expensive the diamond will be. Quite simply, the carat is the measure of mass for a diamond, and is often referred to by point value (with each point represented 200 milligrams). A diamond engagement ring\u2019s total carat weight will be the sum of all of the same stones within the ring.
    \n <\/br><\/p>\n
  • Finally, the clarity of the diamond ring is a measurement of how flawless and clear a diamond is. While most diamonds contain minor flaws, the more cracked and visible these flaws, the lower the quality (and the price) of the diamond. Clarity of a diamond can be improved with fracture filling treatments; however, look for a diamond that has a clarity rating between VS1 to IF, as any flaws within the diamond are not easily seen, even by an experienced grader.
    \n<\/br>
    \nRemember, you don\u2019t have to be an experienced jeweler to determine these important diamond factors; insist on a diamond grade certificate from a reputable gemological lab (such as GIA or EGL), as all of the relevant diamond ratings will be shown on the certificate.
    \n<\/br>
    \nDiamond Engagement Ring Settings<\/strong>. The setting of the ring will play a big role in how much your sweetheart will love her unique engagement ring, as there are many different designs out there. We\u2019ll explore some of the more popular settings:<\/p>\n
  • The tension ring> setting has risen the ranks in popularity. The engagement ring band itself holds the diamond in place, instead of the more traditional prong setting. Despite the simplistic style, there\u2019s an enormous about of work that goes into making a tension engagement ring<\/a>, as the gemstone is held in through pressure alone.
    \n <\/br><\/p>\n
  • In the cathedral setting, the sides of the ring band swoop up into a beautiful arch that demonstrates the beauty of the centerpiece diamond. Bezel settings are similar to cathedral settings, and can show off a smaller stone that might get overshadowed with other setting styles.
    \n <\/br><\/p>\n
  • The solitaire setting engagement ring<\/a> is a gorgeous and elegant design, as a centerpiece diamond is held into place by a prong setting. It\u2019s perfect for the fianc\u00e9e who has understatedly elegant tastes.
    \n <\/br> <\/p>\n
  • The pave setting is designed to show off the band itself, rather than a center stone like with other engagement ring styles. This gives off a smooth and luxurious appearance, as a multitude of smaller stones are used in this setting type.
    \n <\/br>
    \nThere are many other setting styles out there \u2013 be sure to have a friend clue you in on which one your future fianc\u00e9e has been dreaming about!<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a>
    Bezel Set Diamond Engagement Ring<\/figcaption><\/figure>Metal Type.<\/strong> Again, your fianc\u00e9e might have a keen idea of what she wants for her ring, so be sure that you\u2019re prepped with the right information before getting that perfect diamond engagement ring! <\/p>\n

    Remember, you don\u2019t want the metal of the band to upstate the diamond; rather, it should protect, highlight and supplement whichever diamond style and setting you use. Platinum and palladium represent the most popular kinds of metals, as these are strong yet gorgeous metals protect the diamond while highlighting its clarity and color. White-gold metal has a strong resemblance to platinum and is considerably cheaper, although it\u2019s not as strong. <\/p>\n

    Finally, traditional yellow gold can be used with an engagement ring, although this gives the best results for colorless diamonds \u2013 yellow gold can highlight any yellow imperfections that a diamond might have. <\/p>\n

    Choosing an elegant, gorgeous and perfect engagement ring for the love of your life can be a thrilling and wonderful experience. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
