The diamond is a classic for engagement rings, with clear diamonds being the most commonly encountered. They pride themselves on their clarity, durability, and also their so-called fire, or the reflection of light into brilliant to iridescent rays. For diamonds, the 4Cs are assessed: weight, colour, clarity and cut. You can read about choosing a diamond HERE. Clear diamonds are classic, but nature is powerful and creates rare colored diamonds as well. Some of the most valuable and rare are pink, red and blue diamonds.

An engagement ring can have only one central stone or a setting of multiple stones. There are many combinations and the shape of the stone and its cut also have a big influence on the appearance.
