Diamond Engagement Rings

  1. How Do I Choose the Right Engagement Ring?

Selecting the perfect engagement ring involves considering your partner’s style, the ring design, and the significance of the diamond. Carmen loves to help S couples choose their perfect proposal ring.

Find a unique engagement ring for your romantic proposal.

  1. Should I Include My Partner in the Ring Design Process?

This is a personal decision. Many couples today opt to design their engagement and wedding rings together, ensuring the perfect fit, style, and setting. Carmen and Amy will guide you through the selection of diamond cut, metal type, and overall design, making the process seamless and enjoyable.

Rely on our expertise to help you find your forever ring.

  1. What Are My Options for a Custom Diamond Engagement Ring?

Share your ideas and budget – Working together, we can create a one-of-a-kind design to suit your needs.

Take a fresh look at custom ring design – laboratory grown diamonds are a popular choice for engagement rings. More cost-effective than natural diamonds mean a larger or higher quality diamond crystal may be affordable.

With a large stone, you could get multiple gemstones (cut dependent): enhance your centerpiece with a halo setting of smaller diamonds – create a sparkling showpiece.

Or re-imagine a precious family heirloom. Trust Carmen’s decades of experience to repair, redesign, and remodel your antique favourite whilst retaining its sentimental value. Change the band, add gemstones, or modify the diamond setting. Follow the design process with a 3D rendering ring example: CAD software technology generates a full-colour realistic image of your jewellery piece.

  1. Are Fancy Cut Diamonds a Good Choice for a Solitaire Setting?

Carmen considers your partner’s style when advising on diamond cut and setting and crafts a ring with the overall look and feel you fancy. Fancy cut diamonds are a popular choice for simple solitaire settings the most popular being Oval, Pear Shape, Princess Cut (Square), Marquise Cut as well as Radiant Brilliant Cut.  The solitaire style accentuates the fire of the diamond.

The modern round brilliant (octagonal shaped) is considered the classic diamond cut: standard 58 facets create desirable optics – perfect symmetry and angles reveal a visual pattern of eight hearts and eight arrows.

All our diamonds (natural and laboratory grown) come with an independent grading certificate (colour, clarity, cut, carat weight, and serial number) and a valuation certificate (for your insurance company).

Forged under unique conditions and crafted with love, a diamond engagement ring is an everlasting expression of your commitment.

  1. When Is the Best Time for a Romantic Proposal?

Plan a proposal your partner will love. Romance is all about the timing. But when is the best time for a marriage proposal? Surprisingly, Valentine’s Day may not be the answer for you. Although it is certainly a day to celebrate love, you want a romantic proposal uniquely yours.

Relationships are full of significant moments. How about the day or spot that you realised you were soulmates?  Select a date you will remember for the rest of your life together.

Start your tradition and plan a romantic surprise.
