Jewelry Diamond Ring

Should you buy jewelry diamond ring for your girlfriend?

By Ted Crist

Diamonds are women’s best friend, that’s what people say. Many women dream to wear jewelry diamond ring in her life, and men think if they buy jewelry diamond ring, she will be with him forever as the diamond is forever (or at least attract her attention)

You might think why diamond is so expensive; maybe it cost one or two month salary. I’ll tell you why, it’s because it takes millions of years to form a diamond; and now it’s still year 2009! Fresh diamond please?.. Fresh diamond will be ready in next million years, or it’s free!

Ok, now you know why it’s so expensive and you still want to buy her jewelry diamond ring. Here’s the thing you should know:

Jewelry reflects personality

The most important thing is to know your women style, because there’s a chance she will never wear jewelry from you because she don’t like it (she appreciate it, but she never wear it). If she is casual, you don’t have to worry, just buy her simple one and not too flashy. If she is glamour girl, buy her jewelry with a lot of diamonds (more sparkle is better…but its sounds more money to me :-) ) If she’s eccentric, buy her some unique jewelry diamond ring, with a tribal motif, animal, etc

Learn about the diamond

Learn about the 4C (clarity, Color, Cut and Carat). This is important, especially if she knows a lot about diamonds. If she’s blind about diamonds, you can take a deep breath, because with the current technology, the quality of diamond imitation is going better and better. She will not notice it if it’s fake or real… at least if she dont take it to the jeweler. However, it’s better to give her the best you’ve got, you can think that as investment too

Shopping Place

You can buy a jewelry diamond ring at the jewelry store, but it needs more time and effort. Nowadays, buying jewelry on the internet is easier, but you have to choose carefully, some online stores sell fake diamonds. Find a store that provides warranty or diamond certification. If you looking for cheaper price, try to visit Amazon.

In the end, buying a jewelry diamond ring does not guarantee you will get the girl you want. If she see’s you from how much you can spend your money for her, I encourage you to leave her, she will leave you if there’s someone more worth a.k.a richer than you. There’s still a lot of girl’s that can accept you as you are, just polish your another potency.

Learn A Little About Diamond 4Cs Before You Buy Diamond Band

By: Ted Crist

Diamond Bands

Diamond Bands

What is the difference between diamond rings with the diamond band? Maybe for some people that is a stupid question, but actually I ask this question once :-) . The difference is for the diamond ring usually only use 1-3 diamonds just on one side of the ring, while diamond band use more than three diamonds, usually with same size and same type of cut.

Diamond band or some people call it eternity band reflects a never ending love; it would be a perfect gift for a wedding anniversary. But of course, it’s perfect for fashion too.

Since diamond dominated the diamond band appearance, so it’s better if you learn a little about diamond. Usually diamond that used for diamond band is not a number one quality diamond. Because if it is number one quality, I bet that would be super duper expensive, and you have to insurance that. And the insurance also as expensive as the diamond band price.

4Cs (Cut, Color, Clarity and Carat) are the four aspects that mention about diamond quality and determine the price.

First, we talk about the color. Color of the diamond describe by a letter from D to Z. D is most colorless diamond, while Z means the diamond have light yellow color. From grade D-G can consider as a colorless diamond, H-L near colorless, from M bellow will have yellowish color. Usually the diamond used in diamond band have grade H-L.

Clarity means diamond purity. Best clarity diamond describes as Internally Flawless (IF). Here are the orders of diamond clarity: IF-VVS1-VVS2-VS1-VS2-SI1-SI2-I1-I2-I3. VVS means Very Very Slightly Included (the diamond has a very very small inclusion), VS means Very Slightly included, SI means Slightly included, while “I” mean the diamond have inclusions that can be seen by a trained naked eyes.

Cut will determine how well diamond reflects the light. Good cut will reflect the light that enters the diamond back to the surface of the diamond and makes the diamond looks shine and sparkle. Poor cut will cause the light that enters diamonds exits through the bottom or the sides of diamond.

Carat is the weight of the diamond. 1 Carat (1.00ct) = 100 points diamond = 0.2 gram. So if there any 50 point diamond, means that diamond is half a carat (0.50ct) = 0.1 gram.

That’s all the basic 4C’s. I won’t tell the detail in this article, because if I tell it in detail it would be a long article, and of course boring :-)

White Gold Diamond Ring

Read This Before You Buy White Gold Diamond Ring

White Gold Diamond Rings

White Gold Diamond Rings

If you want to buy white gold diamond ring, there are several things you must pay attention.

Why have to be white gold?

Actually is more about personal taste. White looks more fresh, modern and can match with almost any dress or suit. And just for note, men who don’t wear jewelry or ring in his life (but his girl want him to wear engagement or wedding ring, to show other girls that he is not available) usually choose white gold ring because the color is more neutral and so it can still match if he wear t-shirt.

14K or 18K?

Pure gold (24K) is soft material so it has to mix with other materials to make it harder. 14K gold contains 14 parts gold and 10 parts alloys by weight, while 18 K gold contains 18 parts gold and 6 parts alloys by weight. That’s mean 14K gold is slightly harder than 18K gold.

The Diamond

4c: before you buy diamond, it is better if you learn about the 4c (Cut, Color, Clarity and Carat). If you want to buy an expensive diamond, you should buy certified diamond.

The Setting

Besides style and design, You should also consider the construction of the setting, is it strong enough to hold the diamond, is it protect the vulnerable point of the diamond, for example protect the corners of princess cut diamond, whether the ring setting will block the light that makes the diamond is not sparkle as supposed to be and the last one is the material to used for the setting. For the material, I recommend you not to choose the materials that have brittle characteristic. You should choose the material that strong enough but still have ductility characteristic, because if its brittle and your ring got impact, it will break, not bent and you will loose your diamond..whoops. Ask your jeweler for more information.

Diamond Cut

There are many diamonds cut style you may choose. The most common that chosen by people is round brilliant cut and princess cut, it’s because they create more sparkle and shine known as “fire” than other types of cut. You also must pay attention into two aspects of the cut, which is polish and symmetry. If the diamond not well polished, the surface of the diamond may not reflective and the sparkle won’t come out or it will be blurred. If the symmetry is poor, it will cause the light that enter the diamond won’t reflect to the surface of the diamond, but it will exits the diamond.
