Diamonds, a girl's best friend
The diamond, king of precious stones, has been the symbol of love and connection for centuries. This makes the stone a favourite for the engagement ring. Want to promise your partner eternal fidelity? Then the diamond with high ‘I want to stay with you forever’ value is an excellent choice. Many women dream of the perfect proposal and a stunning diamond engagement ring around their finger.
In love with the shape of you
Diamonds are the hardest precious stones on earth. They are rare, very precious and therefore highly sought-after. A diamond's beauty is determined by its reflection of light. The specific way of cutting ensures that the stone sparkles so strikingly.
Diamonds come in all sorts, sizes and shapes: princess cut, pear, round, square... The shape in which the diamond is cut determines the look of the ring. A diamond can thus reflect a very personal taste.
Showing colour
The perfect diamond is -in terms of composition- extremely sparkling white. This classic, traditional engagement ring is a choice that remains very popular. However, structural abnormalities can give the diamond a particular colour. A light blue or pink stone certainly has equal class and adds a personal touch . As a result, this variant with striking colour is on the rise.
Setting
The setting of the diamond is the way the stone is attached to the ring. This can be done in different ways: claw setting, tension setting, case setting, pavé setting,... the possibilities are endless and each has its charms and advantages. Just like the shape of the diamond, the setting is also very decisive for the final result of the ring. So you can choose a combination that completely suits your partner's personality.
Emotional value
Have you ever thought of adding extra emotional value to your ring at by adding a family heirloom to your creation? Perhaps your bride-to-be's grandmother wore a beautiful ring once given to her by her husband. Ask if you can incorporate this diamond into the engagement ring you want made for your partner. You can also choose to eventually pass the ring on to your (grand)children, so that they in turn can wear the family heirloom.
