Materials Commonly Used In Engagement Rings
There are numerous materials that are used to create rings and jewellery. The materials that our rings use include:
- Platinum – Platinum is a highly durable metal. Its brilliant natural white sheen will never change and it also accentuates the dazzling light given off by diamonds.
- Yellow Gold – The most common form of gold. Its warm, golden sheen comes from combining natural gold with a number of red and green shaded alloys.
- White Gold – White gold is characterised by its sleek, silvery appearance which is the result of the gold being combined with metals known for their white colouring. The gold is then plated with a hard metal, like Rhodium, to improve its durability.
- Rose Gold – Rose gold gets its unique colouring from the marrying of gold and copper.
- Sterling Silver – Sterling Silver is created from 92.5% silver to 7.5% copper. This improves the silver's durability without compromising on its beautiful shiny finish.
Choosing The Right Diamond
When it comes to picking the right diamond for your ring, make sure you take into account the 4 C's.
- Cut – A diamond's cut affects its colour and brilliance. A diamond with good cut will demonstrate great colour, diminish its inclusions and feature good symmetry and proportions.
- Carat – The carat of a diamond is its weight. As the carat weight increases, so does the diamond's rarity and price. Two diamonds may have the same carat weight, but still be different values as their cuts, clarity and colour may differ.
- Clarity – The clarity of a diamond is determined by the amount and location of any flaws and blemishes. Clarity grades range from Imperfect 3 to Flawless.
- Colour – Diamonds are available in many different colours, but jewellers often focussed on the white range. They are graded from D-Z, D being colourless (highly desirable) to Z being light yellow.
