I must start by stating that I do not like
eavesdropping other people’s private conversations. I could not, however, help
overhearing two fellow commuters in a train engaged in an animated conversation
about diamond solitaire ring. Apparently married, the duo was discussing about
what they considered when buying their diamond solitaire engagement rings at Galeries du Diamant. In their own
assessment, one must consider some key features when buying diamond solitaire
engagement ring, among them:-
The
diamond is king
They said the diamond is king in a solitaire
engagement ring and you are better of being diligent on its choice. They argued
that in fact one should spend more time in deciding the type of diamond you
would like on your ring than the jewellery’s setting and style. This means,
they said, you should apply the 4Cs — which stand for cut, colour, clarity and
carat —to get a quality diamond on your diamond solitaire.
Size
The duo warned that one should never make
one of the most common mistakes the uninitiated in matters jewellery
make-confusing a diamond’s carat count to estimate its size. Noting that the
carat count says more about a diamond’s weight than size, they advised one to
consider how the diamond will look on the solitaire than its weight. The highly
skilled staff at Galeries du Diamant of Paris would be of great help to you.
Shape
The fellow commuters called on jewellery
buyers to be innovative and imaginative. As opposed to stick to the beaten path
of the round diamond solitaire,
one should try out the tens of different shapes one can imagine with the
guidance of jewelleries staff.
Cut
The angles and facets of a diamond influence
how it will reflect light thereby increasing its beauty. So, how well one’s
diamond is cut will determine how beautiful it will be. It is, therefore,
incumbent upon one to carry out a
little research to unearth some valuable tips on diamond cutting, which one can
use to guide his/her jeweller. And one should always try and go to experienced
diamond cutters like Galeries du Diamant to purchase their diamond solitaire.
