Gold: Is the most popular metal used for engagement rings. It’s available in white, yellow and rose. Gold is slightly softer than platinum but more affordable. It may need more care maintenance over the years.
Platinum: Is one of the rarest metal so its expensive. Platinum is more durable and slightly softer than white gold so it blends easily. It is heavier in weight also.
Choosing the Overall Design:
When choosing the overall design, there are multiple styles that may suit your partner’s preferences or the type of jewellery they like.
Here are various designs to choose from
1. Solitaire’s
A solitaire engagement ring is classic and epitomises timeless elegance. It features a single diamond at the centre with a plain band. There are no extra diamonds or gemstones on any other part of the ring. This makes the single bold diamond centre of attraction. It’s one of the most popular engagement ring styles for a round diamond but can be used for any diamond shape as well.
2. Pave
A pave engagement ring is modern and is like the classic solitaire ring with centre gemstone. In pave rings, the central diamond is complimented beautifully by the other small diamonds either on the full band (known as full pave) or half on the band (half pave). These small diamonds on the band adds glamorous look to the ring.
3. Halo
A halo engagement ring is more popular due to its romantic style. It features a circle of small diamonds surrounding the central diamond. This enhances the visual impact of the diamond in centre making the engagement ring look sparkling.
A halo-style ring works great with all diamond shapes. It’s a great choice for a woman with feminine taste that likes a bit of flair.
- Seamless Halo: A ‘seamless halo’ is a type of diamond halo or setting that eliminates and/or minimizes the gap between the halo and the main centre diamond. It can be an indicator of high-quality craftsmanship since there is more labour involved with this setting technique.
- Double Halo: This is a style with two halos of diamonds surrounding the centre stone. Consider this style if you want to make a small stone appear larger, or if you just REALLY love a lot of sparkle. Two rows of smaller diamonds surrounding the centre, when crafted well, can make the main diamond look nearly double the size.
- Double Edge Halo: A double-edge halo is a style of halo where diamonds are seen from the top view and a halo from the side view. Consider this style if you want to make see diamonds from every angle when looking at the side profile of the ring.
- Hidden Halo: A hidden halo is when the small diamond surrounds the ring from the side. This is not visible from the top view of the ring but can be seen from the side. This is a gorgeous enhancement to a simple style.
