There’s no denying the fact that diamonds aren’t going anywhere, anytime soon. Each year, more and more people seem to fall in love with this stone. Perhaps its appeal lies in the its versatility- a diamond lends itself to every kind of jewelry piece, from rings to tiaras. It can also be paired with any kind of outfit- modern, classic, ethnic and western. It also goes with every kind of metal- white or pink gold, platinum and silver. It can be paired with virtually any other stone- ruby, emerald, sapphire- you name it. It also makes for the perfect gift and grand gesture. No wonder then that its popularity continues to rise, unabated.
It’s in one area where the diamond truly shines- the engagement ring. For centuries, the diamond has been associated with this occasion of commitment and love. No other piece of jewelry but a ring can do in such a time. And what’s the better way of showing that the person matters to you than by gifting them a precious and rare thing like a diamond? A diamond engagement ring is mostly paired with a wedding band and so both rings need to complement each other and fit comfortably. The classic round cut is still popular, though art deco and square settings are fast gaining followers. Here, the diamond is a girl (and groom’s) best friend because with a ring on the finger, there’s no need to announce the new stage you’re in. If you’re looking to flaunt a piece of jewelry and show some bling, you can’t really think of anything but the diamond.
