Diamond Engagement Ring FAQ’s

Some of the most common Q&A's

First, write a note of the metal type, gemstone or diamond shape and setting. Plan your budget and try asking friends and family for some tips. As soon as you have finished, take the time to consider your partner's lifestyle and choose the perfect ring size that will complement their style.

There is no limit, but the standard rules recommend spending two to three months' salary when buying an expensive ring for engagement. When going to buy Rings Online, it's important to create a budget that fits your financial status and not break your bank. Apart from this, you must focus on the quality of the ring instead of just sticking to a strict budget.

Check out one of your partner's rings or ask a close friend or family member for help finding the proper size. If you're uncertain, it's safest to go with a bigger size, as resizing a ring to make it big can be difficult compared to resizing it to make it bigger.

If you still have an issue in finding perfect size, please go through with this ring size guide.

Soak your ring in a mixture of mild soap and warm water regularly to clean it. Scrub filth and grime away with a gentle toothbrush.

We also recommended getting help with an expert cleaner could be a good idea as different materials and gemstones have different maintenance requirements.

Buying real or man-made diamond rings is completely your choice. Natural diamonds are rare whereas man-made diamonds are created within hours. Even though there is no noticeable difference between the two and not even an expert jeweller can tell the difference with naked eyes, sustainable diamonds are a good choice if you are searching for an environment-friendly and affordable option.

If you are looking for an investment then it is not the thing to spend on since lab-grown diamonds have low to no resale value.
