Choosing an engagement ring is a beautiful process that represents devotion and love. This is a choice that requires great consideration. And with the wide variety of styles and designs available these days can be quite an overwhelming experience. Indeed, you’d need help! So, with our wealth of experience giving our clients the best engagement rings, we’ve put together all the tips and information you need to choose the ring for your one.

1. Start with Your Partner's Style

The perfect engagement ring mirrors your partner's style and preference. Pay attention to the jewelry they wear.

Do they lean toward a classic look or something more modern and trendy? That would tell you in which direction you should go for a design they will always love. Leviev has some of the most beautiful rings to suit every taste and preference.

2. Know the Four Cs About Diamonds

If you’re considering a diamond ring, familiarize yourself with the Four Cs: cut, color, clarity, and carat weight.

●     Cut: Determines the diamond’s sparkle and brilliance.

●     Color: Measures how colorless the diamond is, with grades ranging from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow).

●     Clarity: Assesses imperfections within the diamond, with fewer inclusions being more desirable.

●     Carat Weight: This is the size of the diamond, often influenced by personal preference and budget.

Leviev's well-crafted diamond engagement rings ensure the highest quality for all these factors, resulting in a marvelous piece of jewelry that one can wear for years.

3. Set a Realistic Budget

An engagement ring is an investment, but be practical and decide early. Knowing your budget helps narrow options and saves you from unnecessary stress.

Whether searching for simple or something extra, Leviev offers various options to suit every budget range.

4. Choose the Right Metal

The metal used for the ring's band is as important as the gemstone itself. The more common metals include gold, platinum, and silver.

●     Gold: Used in yellow, white, or rose, it provides warmth and versatility.

●     Platinum: Strong and resistant, featuring a rich, luxury finish; best for everyday wear.

●     Silver: Budget-friendly but works best for minimalistic designs.

Consider your partner's skin tone and lifestyle when choosing the band's band's metal.

5. Choose the Setting of the Ring

The setting determines the ring's overall appearance and the security of the stone in place. Some standard settings include:

●     Prong: Prongs showcase a center stone, providing maximum sparkle.

●     Halo: The Halo surrounds a center stone with smaller diamonds for added brilliance.

●     Bezel: It wraps the stone with metal to give a sleek, modern look.

●     Pavé: Additional elegance with tiny diamonds lining the band.

Each has its merits, so you select one that enhances the gemstone's beauty and appeals to your partner's taste.

6. Consider Customization

A customized engagement ring has sentimental value and makes it truly unique. Initials or a particular date can be beautifully engraved on it.

7. Plan the Proposal

Once you’ve chosen the ring, think about how you’ll present it. A thoughtful proposal makes the moment even more unforgettable.

When Is the Best Time to Purchase the Ring?

You should get an engagement ring before the last minute. While ready-made rings requiring minor adjustments take about two weeks, custom rings can take four or even six weeks. Shipping could take a week or less if your chosen ring is in stock.

The goal of choosing the right engagement ring is to preserve the spirit of your union in a classic piece of jewelry. So lean into celebrating every phase of it. And Leviev can be sharing in your special moment. The best way we know how is by giving you a seamless choice process.
