Natural vs Synthetic

A lot of work and effort goes into carefully crafting engagement rings, whether they are made from natural materials and then polished and set in an attractive band, or even if the natural gemstones are treated chemically in special cleaning agents, polished and then placed in a galvanized band, it still requires a skilled craftsman to get the ring to a shop display standard. I don't want to suggest or influencing your buying decision in this article, as ultimately the ring you decide upon  has to be the right ring for your partner. So it all boils down to what they would be most happy receiving and wearing. Are they the type of person, that objects to synthetic and chemicalised products? if this is the case the natural route needs to be trodden as far as it will go - for this kind of ring you may want to consider buying from a niche shop that specializes in birthstone rings and old jewelery techniques. On the other your partner, may just want something that dazzles the onlooker, and shows that its being carefully treated in order to give the stone its shine. In this case, you probably can't go wrong with most of your local jewelers who will have embraced modern galvanizing techniques and chemical polishing years ago.

It's always an idea, to do your research before buying, and this can involve reading some reviews online about the different kinds of palladium engagement rings, diamond engagement rings and natural birthstone rings. It will also involve getting out there and talking to some professional jewelers and see what they recommend. By doing this, you'll stand a better chance of getting it right first time.

It's vital that the man has an understanding of what his fiancee would like so as not to blunder at this point. The proposal, the presenting of the engagement ring, is supposed to be one of the most wonderful moments in her life.

Walk with her around a few stores and look in jewelers windows and you'll soon get an idea whether she hankers after real diamonds or whether she loves the razzle dazzle and sparkle of over-the-top bling!

Once you've done that, then you can make your choice with much more confidence.

That magical moment really will be the most wonderful of her life.

The choice between a genuine natural diamond and a synthetic
diamond is in fact the subject of a new article we have posted:
Why buy a
Genuine
Diamond Ring
?
An additional thing to consider when purchasing an engagement ring
is the choice between a genuine diamond
and clarity enhanced diamonds.

I've recently become a fan of Moissanite. I love the idea of mixing Moissanite with diamonds too. I have been checking out this ring lately- http://stores.jewelryninja.com/-strse-2882/Created-Oval-Center-Moissanite/Detail.bok
