Your engagement ring is the single most important investment you will make in your life and you need to choose a piece that not only sparkles in its way but resonates perfectly with you.
Whether you’re looking for modern halo engagement rings, vintage-inspired or fashion-forward rings, all this comes down to the type of cut you choose.
While round-cut diamonds are brilliant and popular, some brides prefer contemporary princess cuts or even elegant and sleek emerald cuts. Here are some of the best cuts to look out for.
Round-cut
Round-cut gold wedding rings are cut in a way to maximize the fire and shine of the diamond and are ideal for brides that can’t get enough sparkle. These diamonds are quite popular and pair well with solitaire, three-stone, or cluster settings, just keep in mind that they can be a tad pricey.
Round diamonds also don’t need too many details to shine and can easily grab the attention of everyone in the room.
Emerald-cut
Emerald-cut men’s gold wedding bands are ideal for couples looking for something slender, rare, and unique. This cut offers a long silhouette and angular lines along with taking up a lot more real estate on your ringer.
Since this cut has fewer facets, clarity is very important as you will be able to see every small flaw and imperfection which can lower the value of the gemstone. Look for a gemstone that is free from small flaws and imperfections and offers you a lovely shine.
The Bottom Line
While round diamonds
are the most expensive, princess, oval, and emerald cuts are quite affordable
and offer you a beautiful shine. Before you choose a cut, check your style and
lifestyle preferences to make sure that it’s the ideal choice for you.
