What should I consider when choosing an engagement ring?

Start with the 4 Cs: cut, color, clarity, and carat weight each influencing a diamond’s beauty and value. Then, think about setting style, metal preference, and how the ring will be worn every day. Our team is here to guide you through every step of the process.

What are the most popular diamond shapes?

We offer a wide range of diamond cuts to suit different styles, including:
– Classic, timeless, and known for maximum sparkle

– Elegant elongation with a flattering silhouette

– Step-cut with a clean, architectural look

– Soft, pillow-like corners with vintage appeal

– Elongated and bold, often creating the illusion of a larger stone

– Sharp angles and modern brilliance

– A blend of sparkle and geometric edge

Each shape has its own personality and charm—choose one that aligns with your aesthetic and lifestyle.

What does diamond color mean?

Diamond color is graded on a scale from D to Z:

  • Colorless – the most rare and valuable
  • Near-colorless – excellent value and appear white in most settings
  • Faint color – slight warmth, especially in yellow or rose gold

We’ll help you match the right color grade to your metal of choice and budget.

What is diamond clarity and why does it matter?

Clarity refers to how free a diamond is from internal inclusions or external blemishes. The scale ranges from:

  • Flawless to Internally Flawless
  • Very, Very Slight Inclusions (nearly invisible)
  • Very Slight Inclusions (barely visible under 10x magnification)
  • Slight Inclusions (sometimes visible to the naked eye)
  • Included (visible flaws that may affect brilliance)

We often recommend VS1–SI1 as the ideal balance between clarity, beauty, and value.

What is carat weight and how does it affect the ring?

Carat refers to the diamond’s weight—not its size. A higher carat doesn’t always mean a visibly bigger diamond, as cut and shape influence the perceived size. Two diamonds of equal carat weight can look very different depending on proportions and setting.

Do you offer ethically sourced diamonds and gemstones?

Yes. All of our diamonds are conflict-free and comply with the Kimberley Process. We also source responsibly mined gemstones and recycled metals wherever possible because beauty should never come at the expense of ethics.

How long does it take to create a custom engagement ring?

Custom rings typically take 4–6 weeks from initial consultation to completion. Timelines may vary based on the complexity of your design and stone selection. We’ll provide updates throughout and ensure your ring arrives on time.

How do I care for my engagement ring?

Clean gently with warm water, a soft brush, and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, and have your ring professionally inspected and cleaned once or twice a year. Engagement rings are daily wear pieces regular care preserves their brilliance and longevity.
