Press Release Body = There is a huge array of diamond wedding rings available today,
and choosing the one that will be with you for a lifetime is a serious affair.
First, you will have to decide how much you can afford to spend. Then, with your
budget in mind, choose the material you want your ring made of:
- 14K or 18K yellow gold, classic and still very popular for wedding and engagement
rings;
- white gold, which is gaining popularity because it looks stylish and very modern.
Also white gold can be worn with silver or platinum jewelry and it goes with most
fabrics;
- platinum is one of the hardest metals, which in itself makes platinum a suitable
symbol for enduring love. It is also very pure: while 18 K gold contains only 75%
gold, most platinum jewelry is 95% platinum. Platinum rings look similar to white
gold, are very elegant and stylish, don't scratch and don't loose their look with
the passing years. Platinum rings are the most expensive but, considering that you
will wear your ring for the rest of your life, that doesn't really matter for many
couples;
- titanium is long lasting, light and not very expensive, so it has recently became
a very popular material for wedding rings. Titanium rings are similar in appearance
to white gold rings but they are so light that you can hardly feel one on your
finger. Titanium is a particularly popular material for men's wedding rings.
Diamonds are unbeatable favorites for wedding rings and with good reason - not only
are diamonds the most beautiful and expensive of all precious stones, but they are
also the hardest. Other hard stones are rubies and sapphires. Gemstones like
amethyst or aquamarine are too soft, which makes them unsuitable for a wedding ring
that you are going to wear every day.
The characteristics of a beautiful diamond are known as the four Cs - carat, color,
clarity and cut. Regardless of the style of diamond wedding rings that you and your
partner choose, these are factors that will apply.
The carat of your diamond refers to its weight - simply put, the larger the diamond,
the more valuable it becomes.
The color of a diamond also relates to its value - the clearer the stone, the more
valuable your diamond wedding ring.
The third factor is clarity - once again, the more clear a diamond, the more
valuable it becomes. Though few diamonds are perfect, the ones with less clouds or
flaws are more rare, and thus more expensive to purchase.
The final factor is the diamond's cut. The best cut will display the diamond\'s
brilliance to the best effect.
Ask the jeweler for the total carat weight of the largest diamond in the piece to
truly understand what you are buying. Don't pay more for what you are getting.
