So, you think you've found your better half? Congratulations! You need to buy a ring first if you want to take your relationship to the next level and ask the all-important question! The world of jewellery isn't for everyone, but we love it!
Let us help you choose the perfect ring for your one and only.
With a dizzying array of without-ending options, we know it can be easy to get confused. The difference between cluster and solitaire diamond depends on the various other factors known as the Four C’s– Cuts, colours, clarity and carats may all be way over your head. But there's no need to panic, the experts at Marlow's Diamonds are on hand to help.
Choosing between a cluster of diamonds or a single stone ring is one of the criteria that you may have to make. Both are beautifully stunning on any finger and will be treasured for years to come. So, which one to choose?
You must consider your options carefully. Do Not just choose a single stone diamond because that's what you have seen in the movies and DO NOT just choose the diamond cluster just because there are more stones. When making an important choice, here are the real factors you need to take into consideration.
Indeed, the single stone diamond engagement ring (also known as a diamond solitaire ring) is still the most popular choice that adds beauty for an engagement ring. It's also the one that sparkles and dazzles the most in natural light. Contrary to popular belief, more diamonds do not make a diamond shine brighter.
The ring's carat weight is another important factor to consider as it will affect the final cost. The weight of a single-stone diamond is typically equal to about one carat.
The metal that the stone will be placed in must also be taken into account. A six-prong setting will typically be more secure, but a four-prong setting will show off relatively more of the diamond. In the case of the single-stone diamond, quality supersedes quantity.
Despite the popularity of single stone diamond rings, diamond cluster engagement rings are making a pretty significant comeback. This ring is making subtle hints that brides-to-be would like it for their most special day.
A cluster diamond consists of several smaller diamonds that are usually of the same size. Carat weights will be quite low for these little diamonds, although the middle can be larger.
Compared to just a single diamond, the cluster ring will appear to be one large diamond. Think of it this way, with a cluster diamond you may be getting a little more bang for your buck. However, always remember that the carat weight in a diamond cluster will always be lower than the single stone counterpart.
So, if you want quantity diamonds for less amount of money the diamond cluster is the best choice for your partner.
Both the single-stone diamond and the diamond cluster rings are exquisite choices for your life partner to be. Remember to take into consideration your choice of wedding band, to ensure that the engagement ring and the band will both complement one another.
