Choosing an engagement ring that is a cut above the rest

Gold engagement rings are encrusted with diamonds that are cut to show off their shine and brilliance and to give the most reflective light imaginable. Light is reflected out of the diamond's upper surface with precisions cuts being made at a stones best angle, any mistake and the opposite occurs.

Diamonds are graded from poor to high, with the stone's value depending on the grade of the diamond.

Rings are set in both modern designs and traditional designs; each diamond large or small will have been cut and set into a diamond shape with its own natural qualities, to compliment that individual piece of jewellery. Some of the diamond engagement rings are referred to as having the settings of a Marquise stone, Princess, Emerald, Oval stone or maybe a Radiant stone.

The Princess diamond is a popular shaped diamond, brilliantly cut and with clarity. However the Princess, Radiant Diamond and Emerald, are rectangular or square shaped with different degrees of angles or depth. If choosing an engagement ring with an oval stone, the shape is self explanatory; however there are debates as to whether the point of the diamond looks to the finger nail or the palm of the hand.

It is up to the individual, how their ring finger is shaped and the preferred style of a wedding band. Solitaires are round diamonds and of all the diamonds they are the most popular ones, great for a simple but elegant setting. Most couples who shop online, the lady will have already had an idea off her favourite shaped diamond beforehand and if she prefers white or yellow gold.

Engagement rings have different mountings whose job is to keep diamonds safe, essential if the ring is going to be worn on the engagement finger on a daily basis. At Marlows Diamonds we have a wide range of gold engagement rings and wedding rings available online.
