Is This a He- or a She- Ring?
Many companies, including ours, offer a variety of engagement bands for him and her. You can't put love into a box; both men and women should be able to express their genuine feelings however they desire. Naturally, some of our customers started wondering: how do I distinguish between a man's and a woman's engagement ring? Nothing to worry about, we've described some fundamental differences below:
-
Shank width. Male engagement bands are forged to transfer the image of an iron-willed man, a shield, a real mover and maker. To achieve this effect, jewellers resort to broad shank width. Conversely, female engagement bands usually have a thin metal shank to convey grace. Thus, immense rings stand for masculinity, subtle – for delicacy.
-
Stones size. Men enjoy being the centre of attention. They need an accessory to highlight their authoritativeness and social status. Therefore, they fancy big-sized diamonds or gemstones. Meanwhile, women like to entice modestly. They favour small or medium-sized precious stones.
-
Ornament simplicity. Men like conciseness and clarity. That is why they stick to minimalistic designs. On the other hand, women opt for intricate details to make an engagement ring appear unique and one-of-a-kind.
Which Engagement Ring for Woman to Choose: Impeccable Ring for Her
You'd want to outline what you cherish about the person most: her sense of humour, beauty or bright intellect. Ideally, an engagement ring for a woman should match her clothes. She should be able to wear it with a cocktail dress on sunny days and with a french coat on wintry days. You'd want the ring to be meaningful and durable at the same time. Here are characteristics to find the best there is:
Start with material
Metal is of paramount importance when it concerns women’s engagement rings. You should consider how it feels on the skin, how it goes with your partner's character, whether it causes an allergy or not and so on. Of course, it makes sense to consult with an expert (just to be on the safe side). We have assembled key information on metals to simplify the process:
-
White gold is a calming alternative to platinum and popular metal for progressive women who don't appreciate the golden hue. It is the least tarnish-resistant, but it doesn't lose its attractiveness and humble charm because of it. Women prefer white gold engagement rings since they go well with other silver accessories, cost less and power up the wearer with positive energy. Warning: bands from white gold contain nickel, be mindful if your better half is allergic.
-
Yellow gold is a classic Hollywood-movies variant that will never go out of style. The rings of your parents or friends are probably made of it. Yellow gold adds сhick and glamour; it is a top pick for those who wish to announce: "Look at me, I'm the happiest woman alive". In addition, yellow gold engagement rings are characterised by durability. They can be passed over from generation to generation if worn carefully. Unfortunately, they may cause an allergic reaction by people with nickel intolerance and sensitive skin.
-
Platinum women's engagement ring is "One to rule them all." It exceeds its "metal cousins" by all properties: durability, exquisite sheen, symbolic meaning. Platinum is believed to bring power and to clash doubts. Plus, this metal is hypoallergenic, which makes it compatible with sensitive skin. Of course, you might get shocked by the price. Platinum is rare and does cost a lot, but you shouldn't forget you are paying for quality.
-
Rose gold- a soft neutral colour that doesn't hurt eyes. This metal complements any attire and isn't dangerous to allergics. Pleasant to observe, it combines greatly with other jewellery, creating a "suspense" aura. Rose gold engagement ring is an excellent choice for women who anticipate something special and enjoy life to the fullest. You can always go for a rose gold ring and 100 roses – and your proposal couldn't get sweeter.
Next Step: Choose Women's Engagement Ring Designs
It may come as a surprise, but the general perception of the ring depends more on a shank than a stone. Different designs can make a stone look gigantic, small or extra sparkly. Before buying a big diamond, read up more. Over here, we've described everything at length: https://www.gsdiamonds.com.au/how-to-choose-your-style.
Solitaire Style
The solitaire setting is what most people imagine while thinking about women’s engagement rings. It comprises a thin metal band adorned by one glimmering diamond. Solitaire is a befitting option for practical women dedicated to their work or those who don't wear many accessories. It is not likely to get damaged or scratched and looks beautiful and sophisticated. By choosing a solitaire women's engagement ring, you'll bring attention to the marvellous centre stone.
Halo Style
Halo women's engagement ring features a centre stone surrounded by a circle of smaller accent stones. This type of setting makes the main diamond appear larger and more distinctive. Thus, you can save up on a smaller centre stone without sacrificing a significant look. You should choose it if your spouse likes wearing snazzy outfits.
Side Stones Style
Side stones style ring resembles halo, but without the overpowering effect. The setting forges an image of a road paved with tiny glittering gemstones. Many people upgrade their engagement rings with a pavé later in life to celebrate their anniversary. These engagement rings are favoured by dainty, self-effacing women who don't mind extra shine.
Three Stones Style
Three stones design represents the couple's past, present, and future and is the best option to commemorate your eternal bond. The setting features a centre diamond flanked by two side stones. Three is a lucky symbol for those who like to try something from time to time. It's a way of saying: "With you, I'm open to change."
Vintage Style
Vintage style offers the antique charm and signifies the couple's undying love. Vintage engagement ring characterises an owner as a faithful woman who values traditions. Opt for it if your partner appreciates retro touches, old movies and hand-made things.
Looking for a Best Suitable Diamond for a Female Engagement Ring
Diamond- a precious stone she's dreamt of since childhood. Will your gift fulfil her expectations? Another tricky question: what to do with a shoestring budget? Should you limit yourself to bread and water for a couple of months? Relax; it may be unnecessary. Not all diamond engagement rings for women are crazy expensive. We'll help you pick out a decent variant within your financial means. The first thing to remember is diamonds' price hinges on five factors: cut, clarity, colour, carat and shape. To learn more, follow these links:
You might want to compromise on colour and clarity. Only jewellery experts can detect minor imperfections in women's engagement rings anyway.
Carat is something you only can decide for yourself. Take into account: carat doesn't correspond to the diamond's size, just its weight. The diamond's size is influenced by setting, cut and carat combined.
The cut is something you don't economise on. It determines diamonds' brilliance; it's the heart of a women’s engagement ring.
Finally, selecting a shape is the final stage. On our website, you will encounter numerous suggestions: Emerald, Princess, Radiant, Cushion, Pear, Marquise-shaped diamonds and others. Pick one that reflects your partner's views.
Ring size measuring
Figuring out ring size is something many people leave to the last minute. They hastily search for unreliable methods to measure one's finger and often end up with incorrect numbers. To avoid this nerve-racking situation, we recommend following our ring size instruction.
If you didn't get the proper size and your woman's engagement ring is a bit loose or tight, don't start panicking just yet. At GS Diamonds, it is our priority to make your troubles disappear. Therefore, we offer one complimentary resizing for a return within 30 days. However, this offer isn't valid on eternity or tension bands. Plus, a ring three sizes bigger or smaller may need complete remodelling.
