It’s not easy to find the right diamond ring. It’s an investment, and it’ll be something you wear for years to come. There are many factors to consider when shopping for a diamond engagement ring: what kind of ring does she like? What are her priorities? How much do you want to spend? Are you choosing a diamond or a colored gemstone? Here are some tips on how best to navigate this important decision.

What kind of ring does she like?

When you’re shopping for a diamond ring, you’ll want to consider what kind of ring your partner likes. This will help ensure that the final product reflects her taste as well as your own style.

  • Is she traditional or modern?
  • What kind of sparkle does she like? Sparkling and flashy rings are great if you want to make a big statement on your special day, but they can also be costly and hard to clean—especially if there’s lots of detail or gemstones involved. If your fiancé likes simpler styles, keep in mind that smaller diamonds are often less expensive than larger ones (and may even appear bigger).
  • How much detail do you want in the setting? A simple setting with minimal embellishment can work just as well as an elaborate one with details all over it, especially when the main focus is supposed to be on those beautiful sparkly diamonds!

What are her priorities?

Are you looking to buy a diamond ring for someone who is more interested in the aesthetics of a ring, or would she rather see it as an investment and get as much value as she can for her money

Does she like to travel? Is there a particular destination on your bucket list that you want to visit together once you’re officially engaged?

Does she have any hobbies or activities that take up most of her time, such as art-making or running marathons? A ring can be very personal if it symbolizes something meaningful and special about your loved one. If this is the case with you two, then make sure that the rings reflect those interests!

Are you choosing a diamond or a colored gemstone?

If you’re shopping for a diamond, consider the fact that you’ll be paying more than you would for a colored gem. In some cases, colored gems can be quite affordable and even better value overall than diamonds.

Colored gems—which include rubies and sapphires—are known for their durability, but they can also be fragile and require special handling care when worn in rings or set with other jewelry. They should never be worn while doing vigorous physical activity because they’re more likely to chip or break if knocked against another hard object (like your wedding band). That said, there are many ways to protect your colored gemstone while maintaining its sparkle:

  • Use only one ring at a time so that it stays safely in place on your finger and doesn’t come in contact with anything else (like the shower tap).
  • Always wear protective rubber guards on the bottom of each stone so they don’t come into contact with anything that could cause damage when dropped (e.g., concrete flooring).

There are several things to consider when shopping for a diamond engagement ring.

When shopping for a diamond engagement ring, there are several things to consider. The first is what kind of ring does she like? Engagement rings come in all shapes and sizes. You can go with the traditional round cut or choose a square or emerald cut instead. Diamonds are also available in different colors, such as blue and pink.

The second thing you need to think about is what are her priorities? A good idea is to take note of the type of jewelry she wears most often so that you can match it when selecting jewelry for yourself. If she prefers silver over gold, then consider buying her an engagement ring set with diamonds surrounded by silver instead of gold (or vice versa).

The third thing you need to think about is how much do you want to spend? It’s important not only because this will affect your budget but also because it helps determine whether or not certain gemstones might be too expensive for your needs (such as sapphire).

Final Thoughts

When it comes to diamond rings, the options are nearly endless. From solitaires and three-stone settings to eternity bands and halo styles, there’s something for every taste. You can also choose from different types of diamonds—what matters most is finding the one that’s right for you!

Nissan, David and his team were extremely accommodating, understanding and patient with our purchase. They took the upmost care to find the best solution for our needs and went above and beyond normal ‘customer service’ standards. I have absolutely no qualms recommending their products and services. Both were absolutely flawless. I will continue to sing them praises and will most definitely purchase from them again in the future. Thank you again!

Bought a beautiful stone here for an engagement ring. I was a little apprehensive since you’re buying something unseen. But Cid made it easy. In fact, Nissan, the owner also gave a call to make me more comfortable. They sent me the stone to take to a local jeweler with only my Amex in case I bailed on them.
