Know!

Generally, the jewel selected by the future groom to make his proposal is the solitaire!

This consists of a diamond mounted on a ring, surrounded or not by other smaller stones.

It is so called because the diamond positioned alone or not, is the centerpiece of this jewel!

Here are some criteria to consider when choosing your ring:

  • Distinguish the different metals that can make up the ring from the least expensive to the most expensive: silver, gold (yellow, white, pink, black) and platinum (used in large jewelry)!
  • Stones come in various qualities: Gemstones (semi-precious) will be more affordable than precious stones (diamond, emerald, ruby ​​and sapphire).

Did you know?

Diamond is the most used for this type of ring!

Transparency, clarity, weight and absence of inclusions will give you an idea of ​​its quality and condition its price!

  • There are several diamond shapes: round, marquise, heart, cushion, triangle, baguette, cone, pear and princess.

It is the fineness of the cut of the diamond that will determine the beauty of the stone!

  • The ring can be accompanied by a setting of very small stones surrounding the main diamond to enhance it.

Yellow gold is the best color for darker skin tones, while rose gold looks great on fair skin tones.

While white gold or platinum goes well with all skin types!

To know !

Always go for palladium white gold instead of rhodium white gold!

Because gold is naturally yellow, and rhodium white gold owes its white color to a surface treatment, rhodium plating, which fades over time and must be renewed every year so that it can regain its shine. !

On the other hand, palladium-plated white gold is naturally white due to its alloy and retains its color without treatment!

Or she’s already innocently sent you some signals that you haven’t been paying attention to!

In order to make it easier for you when choosing, we have prepared a small set of questions:

  • Does she wear jewelry, rings? If this is not the case, it will certainly be necessary to move towards a timeless and rather discreet model.
  • Is it a jewel that she can wear and assume daily and with all her outfits?
  • What kind of jewelry does she like? Rather discreet or imposing? You will find the answer to this question by simply observing what she is already wearing.
  • Who could help me in this choice? Why not ask someone close to him to help you with this mission? Someone who could pry him about the modem in those dreams!

Ring size:

Generally, rings are categorized by size: from smallest (46) to largest (62).

If you don’t know the size, no problem: most jewelers usually sell the model they have in store and suggest that you come back with the bride-to-be to determine the exact size and order the ring!

This option is available even when purchasing online: you will have the option to return the ring for an exchange.

Ring budget:

The second important thing after the choice of the model is the budget devoted to this jewel!
