Diamond Engagement Rings: A Timeless Classic

The recent trend for engagement rings these days is the vintage look. These rings are strikingly different than any other ring you have ever seen. Many of them look similar, but that is just because they are very busy looking and have a lot going on, making it difficult for your eyes to focus on just one aspect.

Vintage diamond engagement rings are kind of like decked out solitaire engagement rings. The basic outline for the ring is the same; one center stone. However, the vintage look adds a lot of other decorative design work, more smaller diamonds and intricate lines to jazz up the concept. Some people prefer just a little more bling and detail in their lives than others.

Vintage rings usually have a halo around the center stone. This halo consists of very small diamonds that circle the main diamond, creating- you guessed it- a halo! This adds a lot of glitz and glamor to the ring and gives it more “wow” factor as well. The bands on these styles of rings are also very intricate. You probably will not see a simple, smooth piece of metal. Instead, you will have many different lines going every which way, making a unique and beautiful band.

Loose Diamonds Are Subject to Extensive Judgment

Loose diamonds can be seen in just about every single jewelry store across the nation. Not only are these beautiful stones very popular for engagement rings and wedding bands, but they can also be used in many other industries. For example, some dentists use loose diamonds in order to work on teeth. Since diamonds are the hardest natural mineral on earth, it makes sense they would be used in such an abrasive manner. It is less likely the diamonds will chip or become broken while in use. Diamonds can also be used in commercial drilling for the same reasons.

The diamonds used for commercial reasons are much different than the certified loose diamonds used to create beautiful jewelry. The diamonds used for jewelry purposes are far better quality and more valuable than the diamonds used for drilling purposes. Most of the diamond that are mined in the world are not quality enough to use in jewelry. Only the best and most beautiful diamonds are used to create individual works of art to decorate people all over the world. These stones have passed the rigorous judging of gemologists and have excelled in every category of diamond grading, bringing you the finest quality in jewelry.

Jewelry Stores Make it Easy To Say, "I Do!"

There are numerous jewelry stores operating in your home town. These stores are actually located all over the world. From famous name brand stores like Tiffany's or Cartier to smaller jewelry stores selling handmade products, your options are far from limited. Depending on your budget and the style of jewelry you are seeking, you will certainly be able to easily find a store that offers you everything you desire.

Many stores offer financing on jewelry purchases that are somewhat costly. Since most people spend a hefty amount of money on jewelry, it only makes sense to offer some sort of financial relief. Although you will still have to pay the full amount for the jewelry (and sometimes interest), you will be able to make monthly payments of a smaller amount over an extended period of time. This will come as such a relief to many people all over the world. By taking advantage of these services, you will end up with that special ring you have always dreamt of getting for that special someone in your life. Also, once you are engaged, there will need to still be enough money available to plan a wedding. No one wants to have to sacrifice any part of their wedding or engagement ring, so budget accordingly.
