Diamonds are for eternity
Diamond engagement rings are designed to entice the woman, to dazzle. There is nothing that quite communicates the value that a man places on his bride like a diamond engagement ring. There are different cuts that can be made on a diamond engagement ring and these depend on the tastes and preferences of the individual. Round diamond engagement rings are a good example of this. These rings are especially popular because the round cut brings out the brilliance and the fire which characterizes the diamond gemstone. Additionally, the round cut is commonly applied for engagement rings, with the most precise and clear being the round brilliant cut.
The cut of a diamond refers to the manner in which the diamond is shaped and polished from the time that it is just a rough piece of rock to the time it is ready to be set on the round diamond engagement rings. In fact, there are actually guidelines of a mathematical nature which form the basis for the angles to be taken and ratios of length to be applied in order for a diamond on an engagement ring to reflect the maximum amount of light and provide that much sought-after dazzle.
This is true not only for engagement rings but for diamond eternity rings as well. These are beautiful rings that are worn by ladies and whose design incorporates a continuous line of diamonds all along the ring. Eternity rings are usually given to one’s spouse, especially during anniversaries, to symbolize and emphasize the unending love that the couple shares. Eternity rings, like most other rings, also have a wide variety when it comes to their cut and design. For instance, the ring may come in a princess, baguette or brilliant cut, with each design having its advantages. The baguette cut is very clear and precise while the princess cut is designed to be pretty and to attract the eye to the ring with the setting of the diamonds reflecting a lot of light.
Additionally, one may choose to have the gems on the diamond eternity rings set halfway instead of all around the ring. This is most commonly done for added comfort and such a ring is referred to as the halfway eternity ring. The diamonds are only set on the face of the ring so that they won’t make an uncomfortable contact with the other fingers. This design is actually preferred by many people because one is able to see all the diamonds. Eternity rings are mostly ordered and custom-made to fit the individual because having the diamonds all around makes them difficult to size. With the half eternity ring however, the issue of sizing becomes much easier since the gems do not go around the band.
