More than just a ring: The Ringmakers
Choosing an engagement ring is a huge moment in a relationship. Don’t do it alone.
Decisions about engagement rings can be daunting. Should the couple choose together? Should a ring be bought to surprise? You don’t need to decide alone. Working closely with a manufacturing jeweller throughout the process means getting the benefit of their expertise and experience, quality craftmanship, and a truly unique ring at the end of the process.
Where to begin? A good starting point is to think about the wearer’s style: do they prefer classic, diamond-only styles, or could a coloured stone ring be an option? Knowing what the preferred metal colour is – yellow or rose gold, or a white metal such as platinum or white gold – can also really help. Another factor is budget; even if it’s just a ballpark figure. This allows the jeweller to present realistic design options. One of the great things about jewellery is the myriad factors that determine the cost of a piece (think the 4 Cs of diamonds: cut, clarity, colour and carat), which gives a lot of flexibility for meeting budgets.
Practical considerations include height and style of the setting and durability of materials based on how ‘hard’ the ring will be worn. There is a perfect engagement ring out there for everyone, and a good jeweller will help to make yours a reality.
