What A Man Should Know About A Diamond Engagement Ring Pembroke

By Eleanor Thompson


When a woman wears a diamond engagement ring Pembroke it signifies that she is to be married. This is the enduring symbol of strong love between the couple. If you have made the decision that you are going to marry the love of your life then you should know some important facts about the ring.

The four Cs are used to determine the quality of diamond gems. The Cs stand for cut, carat, clarity and color. The value of the stone is assessed using these qualities and they ultimately affect your budget.

Rough diamonds refer to those stones that have just been mined. The process of shaping and polishing them is called cutting. The cut of the gem is meant to make it reflect the most light possible.

Most of us know that the size of diamonds are measured in carats. A carat is 200 milligrams. The point is used for stones smaller than one carat and each point is one percent or 2 milligrams. For rings that have two or more stones set, the weight of all the diamonds is its total carat weight.

Clarity is actually a measure of the number of defects in the stone. Only 20 percent of all mined diamonds are clear enough to be used for jewelry. Stones that do not have any defects are highly preferred by buyers and are designated 'eye-clean'.

The stones are graded by color with totally colorless ones rated as D stones. The color rating becomes lower up to Z. In the trade D diamonds are expensive and prices become cheaper as the grade becomes lower. But this is not strictly true since the most expensive stones had pink and blue tints. Z stones which have yellowish tints are also rare and are more expensive too.

There are some countries where engagement rings are worn by men and women. This tradition is not followed by North American and British nations. The most familiar diamond engagement ring Pembroke is a single stone in a Tiffany setting. The trinity ring is also popular. It is said that the three stones represent the couple's past, present, and future.
