The Love Of Diamond Rings

By Adriana Noton


Dazzling diamond rings come in all sorts of different colors and sizes and there is one to fit just about everyone. For many centuries, this is the one symbol that has been steady in the gift of love. This is used to cement a relationship between man and woman and holds so much sentiment when wore on the women's fourth finger.

Pricing on this very special stone will depend on the the four Cs that all jeweler's go by. Meeting all of these classifications will show just what the stone's worth will be. Diamonds hold special value but other gemstones can be just as special if they are of high quality in size and characteristics.

One of the most important factors would be the coloring of the stone. There are many steps in the grading process and each stone can be rated a particular letter. The yellow canary diamond is one of the most elusive colors and extremely pricey as well. These speciality gemstones are extremely rare and one of a kind in some cases, so that the very privileged are generally the ones who are able to afford these types of eye candy.

Carat weight is another factor of importance when grading this precious stone. The most popular size would be the elite one carat and all jewelry stores carry this size the most. Available are stones that are smaller or larger in sizes and colors. Some are loose stones that can be selected and then custom made to fit into a selected setting.

The selection of a cut would depend on the person's preference. With that said, the solitaire is the most selected as it has timeless elegance. Some like the three piece stones most commonly know as past, present and future type of ring. This can have three solitaires or two princess cuts that highlight the solitaire. There are so many ways to design an engagement ring.

The clarity of any stone is a very important feature to look for. Nobody wants a stone that is filled with markings that would dull the diamond and cause it to lose it's value. It is normal for each diamond to have it's own flaws and finding a stone that has the fewest markings would increase the gemstone's value.

Having all the four Cs that exceeds the average grading in a solitaire that is over the one carat mark is worth so much more than a bunch of little stones equaling to a carat. Most jewelry stores will not even bother to grade diamonds unless it is at least one full carat.

Diamond rings can come in many forms and used in conjunction with rubies, emeralds, sapphires and so much more. Diamonds combined with any stone can set off sparkles and enhance the piece. Many jewelry designers love to bring out the color of rubies with diamonds. Something about the combination of diamonds and other precious gemstones brings out the life of each stone.
