Engagement Rings

Picking the perfect engagement ring can be hard work. There is so much to consider when purchasing an engagement ring such as price and metal type, but it is also important to think about the diamond cut, colour, clarity and carat (or otherwise known as the four C's). These factors are what make engagement rings cheaper or more expensive.

The engagement rings diamond colour and clarity are what really put the price up. They can be colourless to the eye (no signs of yellowing) and the clarity can be spotless to the eye (no tiny marks or scuffs). These are the most popular options however you can spend a lot more money making the engagement ring's diamond colourless and clear even when viewed through a microscope.

The carat is the size of the diamond and anything over around 0.3 carat's tends to get rather expensive so set yourself a budget and try to stick to it if possible - it's easy to get carried away.
