So you’ve found your soul mate, but you’re now stuck on what engagement ring to get. . .
Everyone is always at a loss when it comes to figuring out where to start with buying an engagement ring: From the band colour, the size, the jewel type and all the information in between, the choices can be overwhelming. To ease the pressure, here are some tips to help:
–It will be costly: Everyone says it costs three months’ salary for a ring, but it is better to be realistic with what you can afford. Start with four to six weeks’ worth of saving first.
–Be prepared: Ask your partner’s nearest and dearest (those you can trust!) about whether they have hinted at any favourites; metal types, cut, diamond colour etc.
–Don’t go in blind: Educate yourself on the ‘Rules of the Rock’; it’s always good to know exactly what you’re paying for and how to get more for your money.
It’s for this reason that the team at 77 Diamonds has developed a useful infographic detailing the famous ‘7 Cs’ to choosing a diamond – the carat, colour, clarity, cut, certification, contour and cost.
With an in-depth look into one of the most important decisions of your life, 77 Diamonds has also created a helpful printable ring size chart to use before you part with your cash.
