Engagement ring, the word is all enough to explain emotions, excitement, happiness and all the
feelings associated with it. Engagement is the most precious and special moment of everyone’s
life. It has to be memorable. The couple getting engaged can make it memorable by designing
and customising their own engagement ring for the wearer that suits her/his personality. But
the question arises how can we design a perfect engagement ring? Here we are guiding you on
how you can design your own engagement ring of your own choice. Follow these simple steps
to design your engagement ring.
Start with fixing your budget
Before taking any step you first need to decide your maximum and minimum budget
boundaries so that you can prevent yourself from spending too much money by purchasing
more than your maximum budget. Don’t follow the rule of thumb of spending 2-3 months’
salary for buying an engagement ring. Buy a ring which falls within your budget boundaries.
Select type of stone
After fixing budget you must focus on type of stone you want to be mounted in the ring. Usually
people prefer diamonds with any cut and any shape they like. Couples can also choose a
gemstone or birthstone for their engagement ring. Pearls and coloured diamonds are the most
demanded engagement jewellery element. It is always advisable to select a diamond or a stone
which can be bought wihtin your budget.
Choose a perfect metal alloy
Next you have to select a metal alloy that perfectly suits your selected stone for example white
diamonds are best suited to yellow gold and platinum. Coloured diamonds are mostly mounted
with rose gold. Pearls can be used with silver and titanium. Some professional websites of
jewellers can help you choose the perfect metal for the chosen stone.
Draw the setting and style of the ring
Select the best available engagement ring setting and the style of the ring that symbolises the
couple’s personality and their relationship. There are many different settings of engagement
rings, these can be seen on ring catalogues available in the market and the setting can be
searched for on the internet. Pick one of the modest styles and setting and draw it on a paper
with pencil. You can also note the details of the metal diamond or stones and setting.
After finalising all the necessary details and the style of the ring, give it to the jeweller so that it
can be created and crafted for you and make sure that they deliver you the exact ring which
you have detailed under your budget.
For security purpose you should keep some points in consideration during building
engagement rings. When purchasing diamonds and gemstone, you should take some written
accreditation along with the bill. It should clearly specify that the jeweller is giving you the
original diamonds and stone. Secondly make sure that the jeweller has license for owning a
jewellery shop.
