subject: Engagement Rings' Non-traditional Trends [print this page] When I got my first call from a woman inquiring about purchasing a gemstone ring, I'm a bit surprised that as times passes by, the popularity of birthstones engagement rings for the bride-to-be has been increasing in women's trends. As an owner of an online site offering fine handcrafted jewelry, I've noticed that the most popular choices lately have been pink sapphire diamond, ruby diamond and emerald diamond three stone ring.
Though diamonds have been the most popular and the traditional gem for wedding and engagement rings, still, many women dares to be different and bolder. By being different from the others, they pride themselves by doing things to that will put them in the limelight. What will be more impressive to show others of your uniqueness than wearing a birthstone ring as an engagement ring on your finger? That would really make a statement! Besides, these kinds of rings can potentially cost far lesser than the traditional diamond rings. Many women might find gemstone rings patched with sentimentality and symbolism.
The best choice for using a birthstone engagement ring is to match it with the bride's birthstone. You can also consider using the birthstones of the wedding month or both the brides and grooms birthdays for even more symbolism. Use it as an alternative center stone instead of the traditional diamond. Just always keep in mind to consider the fragility of certain gemstone that you will be using. You should choose one as carefully as you would in a high quality diamond. Durability and longevity will also be a plus factor when you are considering to use your birthstone engagement ring each and every day.
Whatever your reason of choosing a birthstone engagement ring, nothing compares to the combination of a precious valuable birthstone and the traditional diamond for that sparkling and stunning engagement ring that she would surely love. It is easier to purchase birthstone rings during the appropriate month, so be prepared to shop well before proposing if the ring will be harder to find.
