It is a long standing tradition to give your fiancée an engagement ring after she has accepted your marriage proposal. It lets the world know that you are intending to spend the rest of your lives together. Everyone knows that ‘diamonds are a girl’s best-friend’ and giving her a white sparkling diamond engagement ring shows that you want to be her best friend and lover for life.

Fortunately, these days, the price of diamonds is relatively low compared to yesteryear, and can be afforded by pretty much anyone. Do not make the mistake of focusing solely on cost though. The cost of the diamond engagement ring will not be what is most important to your fiancée. How good a particular diamond ring looks on her finger, and suits her personality, are the most important things.

Every woman wants her diamond ring to be noticed. She wants others to look and say ‘wow, I want one like that’. What follows is a short guide on what to consider to ensure that the diamond engagement ring that you choose has that wow factor…

Cut : Refers to the proportions, finish, symmetry, and polish of diamond engagement rings. A well cut diamond will sparkle more. It it unwise to just really on your eyes though, and you do not have to. You can get specific details by asking the seller for them.

Carat : Refers to the unit of weight for diamonds, with one carat being equal to 0.20 grams. As larger diamonds are not as common, the more carats a diamond is, the more it is worth. Two half-carat diamonds taken together will not cost as much as one one-carat diamond, as the one-carat stone is more rare.

Color : It is a common mistake to think that all diamonds are the same color, or that all diamonds are colorless. You will probably find that most of the diamonds that you see in stores are slightly yellow. A slight yellow tint is fine, as totally colorless are extremely expensive.
