One of the hardest choices you will find is picking out an engagement ring for your fiancée-to-be. Choose the wrong one, and not only will you have wasted a ton of money, but your girlfriend will likely be pretty angry that you didn’t know what she liked!
A good option, is to go with something stylish, but classic. Something that will stand the test of time, but will get people to pay attention and ask about it as well. One great idea for this is to use a colored diamond.
Clear diamonds are overused, everybody has a clear diamond solitaire on a gold ring. Boring! Get your lady something unique, something she can be proud of. You can get diamonds in many different colors, including blue and pink, but black diamond engagement rings are particularly spectacular.
Black diamonds can cost more than clear diamonds, since it is only recently that they began using these in jewelry. You can cut costs by using a smaller black diamond in the center and flanking it with lower cost diamonds.
These diamonds are just as strong as regular diamonds and can be cut into the same shapes as well. Additionally, you can have them set into the same settings too.
Only a few years ago, these diamonds had never even been heard of. However, some celebrities have been spotted wearing them, and, of course, they became a hit after that.
You may wish to call up the jeweler prior to visiting them, to make sure that they even carry these diamonds, as they are still rare in jewelry stores. You may need to special order it. Once you have located a few sellers in your area, make sure to visit them and take a look at their selection. If they are good at what they do, they should be able to recommend a setting which works well for your gem.
