The Perfect Engagement Ring Matters

To help you with this complex process, we have created a helpful walkthrough guide that can help you accomplish the task of choosing and buying the perfect engagement ring for your perfect someone.

Here are three important considerations to take into account to help you choose the perfect engagement ring:

#1 Budget

When it comes to choosing the perfect engagement ring, there are many options for every budget. Today, the old rules of spending 1-3 months’ salary on a ring no longer apply. Some spend more and others less, but setting a ballpark budget is a good place to start and will help you and your jeweller or jewellery designer narrow down choices such as gemstone choice and setting complexity.

#2 Style & Preference

To choose a ring that suits your partner’s style and preferences, it is important to do some research to get to know your partner’s taste in jewellery. Designing a bespoke engagement ring can be a great way to get the ring that perfectly reflects your partner’s style, and includes meaningful details of your relationship story.

You can do some research by browsing your partner’s personal Jewellery collection and paying special attention to the rings. Specifically, the shape, the size, the setting, the type, and the colour of the gemstones are all important factors to consider. You can also observe how your partner wears jewellery when you go out together. Paying attention to your partner’s preferences can help you get a clear mental picture of what type of engagement ring would be the perfect fit.

#3 Durability and wearability

Today, more and more couples choose coloured gemstones, rather than diamonds, for their engagement rings. When choosing a bespoke engagement ring design, it is important to consider factors such as durability and wearability. Coloured gemstones provide unparalleled scope when it comes to personal expression, but not all gemstones are suitable for everyday wear. It is important to discuss this with your jeweller, and get as much information as possible before making a choice. Some settings are better than others at protecting your gemstone from every day wear and tear, and your jeweller will be able to advise you on this. Band thickness is another important consideration when it comes to durability – the very fine bands that are on trend right now will warp and wear thin over time, compromising the security of the gemstone setting.
