6 DESIGN IDEAS YOU CAN INCORPORATE INTO YOUR INTEGRATED ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING RING SET

If a couple has been in a committed relationship for a certain number of years, we all know what’s to come next. Normally, one of them would go out, canvas for engagement rings, pick the piece that suits their partner best, get down on one knee, and pop the question. If the other party is feeling the same need to take the next step, they’d agree to marry in a heartbeat and wear the ring that was presented to them. Afterwards, the wedding planning starts and thus begins the search for the perfect set of wedding bands.

WHY YOU SHOULD PROPOSE WITH A TRILOGY ENGAGEMENT RING

According to expert jewellers, there are many types of engagement rings that you can consider if you plan on purchasing one in the near future. There’s the solitaire ring, a classic favored by many for its simplicity; the cluster, if you’re looking for a ring with maximum sparkle and brilliance while being budget friendly; pave, which involves embedding smaller diamonds or gemstones along the band; and halo, if you want to let the center stone shine as much as possible. While these are all good choices for an engagement ring, there is another style that you can consider: the trilogy engagement ring.

For those who are unaware, the trilogy engagement ring, also known as a three-stone style, is a ring with three stones installed next to one another on the band. Often, this includes a center stone consisting of a diamond and two smaller stones, which can either be smaller diamonds or gemstones, on both sides. Recently, it’s seeing a surge of popularity and as a matter of fact, more and more jewellery experts are recommending that you opt for a trilogy engagement ring if you plan to propose to your partner soon.

THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN LAB-GROWN AND NATURAL DIAMONDS

Thanks to the advancements that science and technology has made over the past century, it’s now possible for scientists to create diamonds in contained environments such as labs. This is an incredible boon to the jewellery industry as not only does it provide a steadier supply of diamonds but it allows them to sell diamond rings and engagement rings to customers at a lower rate compared to natural diamonds and therefore, drawing in more consumers in the process.

According to experts, lab-grown and natural diamonds look pretty much the same. Despite this, however, they do have their differences and before you make your diamond jewellery purchase, there’s no harm in learning what these differences are. In fact, by doing so, you’ll be able to make an informed purchase that you’re certain is worth your money.
