There are many different shapes of diamonds Round, Princess, Emerald, Radiant, Oval, Pear, Marquise, Heart, Asscher, and Cushion and as always you will need to make sure that you get a quality diamond of the right clarity carat and color then you have different metals to choose from traditional gold, white gold and platinum.
You need to educate your self on the different setting you can choose from a four or six prong setting. With a custom engagement ring you may want to use the four prong setting so it shows off more of that beautiful diamond you have spent your hard earned money on or you may choose to have a six prong so there is less chance of the diamond coming loose. There are also the flush mounted diamond or the bezel setting with the flush setting the diamond sits down in the band and shows only the top and the bezel setting is similar to the flush mount but there is rim of gold around the diamond so that it gives more depth to the custom engagement ring. You will want to look into maybe having a multiple stone setting also.
When you have chosen the setting and the diamond you are going to want to find out what kind of gold or platinum you are going to have the band made out of. You can choose 14, or 18-karat gold for the band depending on what your budget will allow usually bands are made in 18-carat gold. If you know that she prefers white for her custom engagement ring then you can go with white gold or platinum. Platinum is more expensive than white gold so if the budget is tight you can save some money by going with white gold it will still make a fantastic ring.
Bands come in different styles you can get them in square or round or a combination of some kind it is better to have a rounded edge for comfort.
Building that perfect custom engagement ring for that special person will be a lot of fun so be sure that you take the time to learn the ins and outs of a custom engagement ring so that when you do ask that all important question will you marry me and they say yes the next step of placing that ring on their finger will be perfect.

Choosing an engagement ring that is a cut above the rest
by admin on 11. Aug, 2010 in Engagement Rings
Gold engagement rings are encrusted with diamonds that are cut to show off their shine and brilliance and to give the most reflective light imaginable. Light is reflected out of the diamond’s upper surface with precisions cuts being made at a stones best angle, any mistake and the opposite occurs.Diamonds are graded from poor to high, with the stone’s value depending on the grade of the diamond.Rings are set in both modern designs and traditional designs; each diamond large or small will have been cut and set into a diamond shape with its own natural qualities, to compliment that individual piece of jewellery. Some of the diamond engagement rings are referred to as having the settings of a Marquise stone, Princess, Emerald, Oval stone or maybe a Radiant stone.The Princess diamond is a popular shaped diamond, brilliantly cut and with clarity. However the Princess, Radiant Diamond and Emerald, are rectangular or square shaped with different degrees of angles or depth. If choosing an engagement ring with an oval stone, the shape is self explanatory; however there are debates as to whether the point of the diamond looks to the finger nail or the palm of the hand.It is up to the individual, how their ring finger is shaped and the preferred style of a wedding band. Solitaires are round diamonds and of all the diamonds they are the most popular ones, great for a simple but elegant setting. Most couples who shop online, the lady will have already had an idea off her favourite shaped diamond beforehand and if she prefers white or yellow gold.Engagement rings have different mountings whose job is to keep diamonds safe, essential if the ring is going to be worn on the engagement finger on a daily basis. At Marlows Diamonds we have a wide range of gold engagement rings and wedding rings available online.

by admin on 11. Aug, 2010 in Engagement Rings
Hello everybody! I plan on proposing to my girlfriend this summer. We’ve been talking about getting engaged and eventually married for awhile and it’s time to make that next step. So we’ve looked at rings a little bit and this one ring really caught her eye. Only thing is that it’s a black diamond! I’m clueless when it comes to jewelry so can anyone help me out and tell me if these diamonds are suitable for engagement rings? A 1 ct. black diamond was of equal value to diamonds around .25 ct. Are they inferior in quality or something? Anyways, thanks to anyone who can help me out in understanding all of this better.
Obviously if this is the one she really likes, this is the one I should probably get! I just want to make sure I’m getting her a quality ring
thanks again to anyone who can help
