If you’re looking to buy an engagement ring, you probably have a few things on your mind. Are you going to go with something classic? Something modern? Is size more important than cut? Do you want a matching set for both of you, or does she already have her own engagement ring that she adores? These are all valid questions, but there’s one aspect of diamond buying that often gets overlooked: the shape! There are many different shapes of diamonds out there, and each one has its own unique personality. We’re going to break down some of our favorites below so that by the time this article is over, you’ll know exactly which shape will work best for whatever finger size she happens to wear it on!

Different diamond shapes.

The most popular diamond shape is the round brilliant. This is the traditional shape that we think of when we hear “diamond engagement ring”. It’s a classic, and it works well with every hand and finger size.

The princess cut diamond is another favorite of ours because it has an elegant look while still being modern and sophisticated. It’s also great if you have a more square face shape (like us!).

If you are looking for something that will stand out from other engagement rings, consider one of our other favorites: cushion cut diamonds or emerald cut diamonds. These stones have very distinct surfaces and may be better suited for someone with a larger knuckle or finger size than a round brilliant would be able to fit comfortably on their hand.

If you’re not sure what shape would work best for your finger, try taking a picture of it and sending it to us. We can help make recommendations based on your photo.

Different hand & finger sizes.

As you might imagine, the length of your finger is an important factor when choosing the perfect diamond engagement ring. A longer finger means that a larger and wider band will fit comfortably, whereas a shorter finger needs a smaller or narrower band to look balanced.

The reality is that there is no direct correlation between finger size and height or weight—the only thing that matters is how long your fingers are! If you have small hands but large knuckles (e.g., “man hands”), then it’s possible for them to appear even bigger than they actually are because they take up more space on your hand. This makes sense if you think about it: if someone with small hands has big knuckles then their hands will look even smaller by comparison!

It can be very difficult to find the right ring size, and this is especially true in the case of diamond engagement rings. A woman’s fingers are not always proportional to her height or weight as they may appear larger or smaller based on other factors like body type, clothing style, and even jewelry worn around them!

Diamonds are expensive, so you want to make sure you buy the right ring.

If you’re shopping for a diamond engagement ring, you’re going to want to get the right size and shape for your partner’s hand. The wrong size and shape can make her feel uncomfortable, especially if she’s always been self-conscious about her fingers being on the shorter side.

If it doesn’t fit nicely, it may seem like an insult if the diamond is too small or too large for that finger. This is why it’s so important to get the perfect fit!

If your partner is the kind of person who likes to wear multiple rings, then you might want to consider a band with diamonds on both sides. This will allow her to wear two or three different engagement rings at the same time, depending on her mood or outfit.

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.
