You can't go wrong with the timeless beauty of diamonds. Getting engaged is one of the happiest and most exciting times in a couple's life. Many men go to painstaking efforts to ensure the moment is memorable and she is swept off her feet.
An engagement ring must not only fit the finger; it must fit the woman. It should be a reflection of who she is as well as an embodiment of her feelings toward the commitment she is about to make. Because the diamond is the symbol of everlasting love, it is, of course, one of the most important decisions to make.
Surprise her with the engagement ring that goes beyond all her expectations. Some things to consider when trying choosing the perfect ring:
- Learn about the 4Cs so that you can make an educated purchase.
- Pay attention when she admires someone else's ring.
- Ask her friends and family what she likes.
- Notice which photographs or ads she admires.
- Window shop to see which rings she likes best.
- Pay attention to the other jewelry she wears. Is it simple or more intricate?
- Note which metals she seems to prefer: yellow gold, white gold, or platinum.
If you're about to buy a diamond engagement ring, you may want to consider the often-quoted guideline of spending one to two month's salary. But, whatever you spend, your diamond will represent one of life's deepest emotional investments. It may eventually be passed down for generations, cherished not just for what it is worth, but for what it means.
Wearing a diamond ring on the fourth finger of the left hand dates far back to ancient Egypt, where it was believed that the vena amoris (the vein of love) ran from that finger directly to the heart. Placing a diamond, with its enduring power, on that finger, was - and still is - seen as the ultimate way to connect love with eternity.
