So you have found the ideal lady and now are looking at engagement rings and diamond rings to become engaged. Well first of all congratulations on your pending engagement and I hope this article helps you select the correct ring to make you very happy indeed.  The first thing to consider is the metal for the ring itself so look at her watch, bangles and diamond earrings and see if there is a particular colour that stands out.  It might be yellow gold or the silver colour of Platinum, White Gold or Palladium.  So once you have an idea of either Yellow or White we can now look at the ring design.  You might hear her talk about the round diamond ring or the princess cut diamond ring which is square.  Sometimes going to a Mall for a Sunday shop and popping into a jeweller to check out some watches but ensuring she follows and comments on the ring styles is a great way to get an idea.  You may even get her to try one on and push for a finger size.  There are many different diamond shapes to consider including round, princess, radiant, pear, marquise, oval, emerald and asscher cut diamonds to name a few.  We really like to different shapes but a firm favourite diamond shape is the Princess cut diamond or square shape.  I think all women love being considered a Princess so the diamond lends itself well to the imagination of becoming a Princess if they have this shape.  A very good marketing name indeed and a very popular diamond shape.  You can also consider diamond rings with diamonds down the band in a pave or channel setting to add a bit of flair and sparkle to the design.  Some people like a plain classic solitaire with just a centre diamond and this also looks great.  Putting in small diamonds down the band is an expensive way to add sparkle and wow factor to smaller and less expensive centre diamonds.  Some woman like dress like rings and they may prefer antique style, multi diamond rings with a bit more going on.  Some woman may like simple clean lines and they may tend to prefer the solitaire.  Once you have an idea of style, diamond shape, finger size have a closer look at the ring metal.  There is no substitute or yellow gold but there are some options for white metals like Platinum, Palladium and White Gold.  Have a look at the ‘Polished Diamonds’ educational section as it is quite lengthy regarding the qualities of these different white based jewellery metals.  Now that you have the metal colour, diamond shape and maybe a finger size you can check out different prices and build qualities.  Polished Diamonds manufacture diamond rings and we guarantee a slightly heavier, more durable and custom made diamond ring.  We can CAD your engagement ring using the actual measurements for your review and approval before you buy.  If you have any questions about selecting the perfect diamond engagement ring simply ask Polished Diamonds UK.  The perfect diamond ring can be difficult to summarise as each person likes different designs but remember it is a symbol of your engagement and plan to marry so try to do it once and do it right.
