DIAMOND GUIDE PART 1

A Diamond Ring is Forever
Diamonds and diamond rings are things of beauty - they
elevate the wearer and create an aura of desirability,
success and fulfillment. A diamond is the hardest substance
known to man and hugely durable. Because of this,
diamonds are highly resistant to deterioration and its beauty
and value endures. The reasons for buying diamond rings
are many and varied. They are coveted as gifts, status
symbols, tokens of romance and long-term investments.
While diamond prices may fluctuate with economic
conditions, even after years of being worn and enjoyed, a
diamond ring retains its value.
The Origin of Diamonds
Diamond mining is found in many countries across the world
including:
· South Africa
· Sierra Leone
· Ivory Coast
· Ghana
· Central African Republic
· Tanzania
· Brazil
· Guyana
· Venezuela
· Guinea
· China
· Indonesia
· India
Rough diamonds are mostly delivered to London for sorting
and then cut in many countries - the major cutting centers
are in Antwerp, Tel Aviv, New York and Bombay.
Rare and Coloured Diamonds
Large diamonds are not often found in nature, which makes
them difficult to source and are the rarest of the Diamond
Quality Pyramid. Less than one percent of women will ever
own a diamond that weighs more than one carat. Miners will
typically only find one carat of rough diamonds for every 250
tons of ore blasted out of the ground, crushed and
processed. And, only 1 in 5 of of all rough diamonds found
are suitable for cutting for diamond jewelry. While colour
within diamonds generally reduces the perceived quality, a
few have very bright pronounced colours running through
the stone and these are considered very rare and highly
prized.
Diamond Rings and Jewelry
Traditionally the ownership of diamonds was limited to
Royalty and the upper-class of society. Elaborate
headpieces, necklaces and rings studded with diamonds
(think of the Queen's Crown) was the order of the day. The
discovery of diamond mines in Africa in the late 1900s made
diamond rings and jewelry more widely available and the
level of design amongst goldsmiths vastly improved,
designs evolved and the diamond became the rightful focal
point in any jewelry it was set within.
Diamond Shapes
There are traditional and contemporary setting variations for
diamond rings, but there are six main diamond shapes:
round brilliant-cut, marquise, emerald-cut, pear-shaped, oval
and heart-shaped. More than 75% of all diamonds sold are
round stones.
Diamond Engagement Rings
Diamond engagement rings are amongst one of the most
gorgeous selection of precious gifts you can ever give to
the very special person in your life. The most treasured
moment in life is adorned to its spirits with a
diamond-encrusted ring. There is no other way to express
the exquisite recognition of diamond rings in wedding.
Diamond rings offer the perfect value of money and
pleasure of finding something very realistic. The fire and
brilliance of a ring takes you to the higher level in the
armoire. Diamond rings are much costlier than any other
stoned rings. You can feel the difference of a diamond
engagement ring with others at the very first look.
The Quality of a Diamond Engagement Ring
The quality of a diamond engagement ring is expressed in
terms of the diamond cut and the metal used such as
platinum, gold or silver. A good cut is very essential for the
diamond's beauty, the color and clarity of the diamond
depends mainly on the proportions of width and depth of the
cut. Traditionally known as a symbol of love and proposing
during wedding or engagement. Every man wants to use the
most expensive engagement or wedding ring symbolizing
eternity. Diamond rings are a perfect choice for them.
Ring Style
While shopping you should have some idea about the nature
and style of the ring. First choose the centre stone. Most of
the people love to wear diamonds but some may prefer
other stones that are not usually seen. You should then
choose the shape - for this you should be aware of the
tastes and preferences of your special person. Rings are
available in various shapes such as round, square, emerald
cut, marquise, oval, pear, heart and trillion. Always select
something that gives good feel to your diamond wedding
ring or diamond engagement ring. Next is the choice of the
metal and its style. The beauty of the hand and a brief study
of the type of finger jewelry she enjoys will give you a basic
idea about the diamond rings. Now most of the people love
to wear silver jewelry. But setting diamond in silver is not a
best choice; you can either prefer white gold or platinum.
Platinum rings are really costly and go well with diamonds.
Diamonds for Men
Not only women love to wear diamond rings, the fascination
is no way less for men. The exotic collection of wonderful
men's diamond rings is available for everybody. Diamond
rings always suggest a rank much above the normal and this
costly accessory represents your personality and
individuality in the most glorious way which no other stone
can compare.
