A ring with a diamond

Jewelry is more popular today than ever. Especially when it comes to diamonds. It's not for nothing that they say that girls' best friends are diamonds. And today we will just talk about such an adornment as a diamond ring.

If we talk about a diamond, then it is considered, most likely, the most valuable since antiquity. It was wanted not only by the rich, various politicians, ordinary people, but also by monarchs. This stone has long been a symbol of luxury, power and success. Therefore, it is not surprising that he attracts such attention from the mighty of this world.

One of the important features is that it has a rather powerful energy. For example, it is believed that it is better for the fair sex not to buy such jewelry on their own, otherwise the mineral will not demonstrate its properties so actively. It will be best if the girl receives the jewelry as a gift. The presented diamond will give its owner more femininity and self-confidence.

Another important advantage of this stone is that the products with it are not only beautiful, but also of high quality. A ring with it can be worn not only at celebrations, but also every day, because the diamond itself is very durable and it is almost impossible to scratch it. This mineral is also quite versatile, as it will look great with almost any outfit.

It is logical that these minerals can vary in size, clarity, cut, and so on. All of them are assessed according to four most important criteria, which are called 4C:

• carats;
• purity;
• faceting;
• Colour.

If we talk about carats, then gem-quality diamonds are measured in this value. 1 carat is about 0.2 grams. Accordingly, a 0.5 carat diamond will weigh about 1 gram. The scale of this value consists of numbers from 1 to 100. The mass of stones plays a fundamental role in identifying value. But it should be understood that if you have 2 similar stones by weight, say, 2 carats, then they may have different values.

The price is estimated from the quality of these stones. High quality pieces can be found in various sizes. The larger the stone, the greater its value. You can estimate the mass of the stone by size.

Another important criterion is cleanliness. This indicator indicates the presence of some features of the stone. These are two categories of defects:

• internal;
• external.

Almost all diamonds, be they with a mass of 3 carats or any other, have something like small foreign crystals, or interspersed with non-crystallized carbons. Most often, they cannot be seen with an untrained eye and only a specialist with the appropriate equipment can identify them.

When determining this parameter, everything is taken into account: color, quantity, size, orientation, and so on. And, of course, the smaller the number of such inclusions, the greater the value to get a stone with 5 carats, 7 carats, etc.

And in some cases, blotches and various spots will even be a good sign. Their presence allows you to determine its authenticity and origin, because the differences between synthetic and natural minerals are becoming more and more imperceptible.

Little should be said about cutting. It is very important as it determines the shape of the stone. For example, round minerals are the most popular, because it is precisely this shape that allows the full potential of a diamond to unfold. This criterion of a diamond and its shape should not be confused. After all, the quality of the play of light depends on the cut.

This is the only moment completely dependent on the master. All others are determined by natural conditions. There are other types - drop, heart, marquis, oval, emerald, princess and others.

If we talk about a drop, then in this case, the diamond will have the appropriate shape. The "Princess" shape is the most popular after the round one. Usually it is a square stone variant that has sharp corners. But it also happens that stones can be made not squares, but rectangles.

If we talk about emerald, then it has stepped edges. This allows you to give the stone unique properties of the optical type. Such a mineral will be very picky about purity and if there are any defects in it, they will be very clearly visible. This type can only be made as a rectangle. If you need something with a square stone, then you can look at the Asher cut, which is also sometimes called Baguette.

This type is a symbiosis of the "Radiant" cut and the emerald cut. The most important feature is the square shape of the mineral. It got its name from its inventors - the Belgian brothers Asher, who invented it at the beginning of the 20th century. For her, it is better to select the cleanest stones possible, since even minor defects in this case will be clearly visible.

The version called "Radiant" is a symbiosis of "Princess" and emerald cut. Its main difference from others is the beveled corners of the stone. It is very easy to fix it in any decoration.

The "Marquis" cut model visually makes the mineral in question larger, since in this case it will have an oblong shape. It will look good with other teardrop stones. The first stones began to receive such a cut back in the time of Louis XIV.

The pear cut is a combination of an oval cut and a marquise cut. It is also sometimes called a drop because of its shape. These minerals most often become the centerpiece of pendants and earrings.

The Heart cut is a teardrop cut but with a notch in the middle.

If we talk about color, then this is probably the most obvious indicator of naturalness. And it has a significant impact on the price. The most expensive are white diamonds, which are colorless.

If there is a yellow tint, then the stones may lose value depending on the intensity, but if there is a strong red or blue color, then the price of such a mineral may even increase. For a more accurate determination of the color and value of 6-carat diamonds or any other, there is even a special scale.

There are minerals and shades of gray. True, their value cannot be compared with black diamonds. You can find jewelry with colored diamonds. For example, today you cannot surprise anyone with jewelry with a yellow diamond. Such jewelry can be a good addition to any look.

But the color gamut of diamonds is much wider. Rings and earrings with a champagne-colored stone will look very interesting. Quite rare, and therefore jewelry with a pink diamond will be more spectacular. Such a piece of jewelry will definitely draw attention to its owner.

It is very important to be able to choose the right decoration with the stone in question. As already mentioned above, today artificial stones are becoming more and more similar to natural ones, which makes it difficult to choose. And dishonest sellers are trying to take advantage of this fact to pass off an artificial mineral as a real one. And you can just run into a fake, even in a more or less well-known store. Therefore, we will try to understand how to choose the right mineral.

Most often, scammers try to pass off quartz, crystal and even glass as a precious stone. But the density of all stones is different, and it is possible to determine a fake by correlating the size of a diamond and its mass. You can find correspondence tables in any store.

In addition, if you pass ultraviolet light through a real stone, then it will respond with a blue glow. However, the disadvantage of this method is that a number of stones give a neutral glow. If possible, you can take an X-ray of the diamond. There will be just nothing on the screen, as the rays will simply pass through it. But all other materials do not transmit such rays.

Also, if you pass a ray of light through a genuine stone, it will not be visible from the back side. If the diamond is real, then you can try to rub it with sandpaper - no harm will be done to it. In addition, you can breathe on the stone - condensation never forms on the diamonds.

Well, the simplest way to check the stone would be a combination of a supposedly large "diamond" and a cheap setting.

Naturally, well-known jewelry stores and shops will offer the buyer high quality goods, which will have the appropriate accompanying documentation. Also, on stones or products with them there will be a brand of the manufacturer. Naturally, no one cancels the possibility of return and exchange in the store. And, of course, the customer would receive a sales receipt that they would need in case of a problem.

It will not be superfluous to say that one should not look for only a transparent stone, because the frame, whatever it is, it will give it a certain specific color. It will not be superfluous to pay attention to how the diamond is fixed in the jewelry.

Rings with similar minerals can be different. Given their versatility, they work well with a variety of metals. Another advantage is that the stones we are considering are very durable, and therefore are not afraid of contact with any metals.

Most often, given the cost of the considered, gold rings can be found. For them, gold 750 is used.It looks expensive and will be an appropriate addition to a beautiful and expensive stone. Less often you can find a gold setting for a 585 ring, but this is a kind of budget option. Rings where the setting is made of white gold are no less popular.

If such frames are not to your taste, then you can choose a frame made of platinum. The platinum ring will merge wonderfully with the diamond, forming a beautiful ensemble that will amaze with its purity and showiness.

If you want something different, then you can choose a silver ring. Silver has long been known for its beneficial properties, and with proper care it will look like new for a long time.

Unusual options can also be found with diamonds. For example, titanium frames are now in demand on the market. In general, there is also a considerable choice, so that everyone can find what he needs.

Although the mineral in question will be quite effective and self-sufficient, often the rings are also decorated with other minerals. It looks best with a sapphire. Jewelry with it can have a variety of designs - from the simplest to the incredibly complex.

A ring with the stone and emerald in question can be very beautiful. Such symbiosis will be especially successful in platinum or rose gold frames. There are many such rings, and for both sexes.

Jewelry with pearls of various colors look no less impressive. Such a duo of minerals will be a godsend for almost all clothing styles. This combination will add femininity and beauty to the girl.

The combination with amethysts will be quite popular. The purple color of this mineral is in good harmony with diamonds. Such rings will look light and unobtrusive. The play of stones in the light will be amazing.

A combination with a ruby ​​or a pomegranate will be interesting. The red glow of these stones will make the diamond even more impressive, which will give off excellent red. This combination will be good for brave girls.

But combinations with topaz and opal will be an excellent solution for calm girls.

If we talk about the demanded models of such rings, then today there really is plenty to choose from. Models with diamonds in a circle or those with a diamond track are very popular. They are expensive, but at the same time - this can be called the pinnacle of jewelry art. They are original and look very impressive on the finger.

In addition, a thin diamond ring would be an excellent solution for a marriage proposal. If we talk about this category of rings, which are intended for various celebrations, then it should be said that wedding options with minerals look beautiful and will be another confirmation that the intentions of the two halves are pure. Diamonds are used in a ring called Save and Save.

If you need a classic, then you can purchase an infinity ring or, for example, a variant with three diamonds.

A classic ring can also be loose. For example, we are talking about such models as the Malinka ring or the Tulip ring, where several small stones are located, and the largest one is set in the center. There are also models of this type with a huge diamond.

Solutions with cognac diamonds, which play beautifully with color and shine in the sun, will be interesting. Models with diamond crumbs will be quite popular among girls today. It has become especially fashionable to make a scattering of stones on ornaments in the form of a flower.

Another category of rings popular today is the so-called floating rings, or, as it is called, with a dancing diamond.

This type of decoration is an excellent solution for celebrations, regardless of whether it is a birthday, wedding or graduation.Any such jewelry on the hand will be an excellent solution to complement the everyday look.

This kind of jewelry is great if it is a wedding. This will put a special emphasis on femininity and sense of taste. This type of diamond solution will look great with a variety of skirts and dresses, as well as all sorts of suits. Ideal women's ring with one diamond is suitable for girls who are in leadership positions. It is important to know that the younger the owner of the ring, the more modest the jewelry she should wear. A wide ring with a large stone is best worn by older women.

If a girl decides to wear a cocktail dress or evening dress, you should not overload yourself with rings and so on. It would be best to wear a set of jewelry - earrings with diamonds and a ring. Or replace them with a necklace, if any. Two pieces of jewelry are enough to create a great look.

You should know that the most beautiful jewelry looks best in a classic style. Therefore, when choosing diamonds, you should avoid all shiny things and rhinestones. Classic outfits made from expensive fabrics will be the best solution in this case. Do not put on 2 or more rings on your finger. Even if each of them with a small stone and even if one is a wedding.

If you want the jewelry in question to have its original appearance as long as possible, then you will have to take care of them. But it must be done correctly. Whenever possible, jewelry should be removed when you get home. This rule applies to rings, earrings and necklaces. You do not need to take a bath in jewelry or go to a bathhouse. High humidity is not good for such products.

It is best to store such jewelry in a special box to protect them from dust. You should be prepared for the fact that sooner or later there will be a need to clean the jewelry. In this case, it is best to clean them with vodka or a not very strong alcohol solution. After wetting with such a solution, it is necessary to remove the dirt with a cotton swab.

You can wash the product with soap and water and use a soft sponge. But in no case should you try to clean such things with the help of strong abrasives, because they can scratch the frame, as well as spoil the appearance.

A number of people still think that a diamond is the most durable stone and will have nothing to do with water or fire. But it is not so. This statement may be true for a diamond, but not for a diamond. The fact is that the diamond turns into it when the so-called shirt is removed from it. But it should be understood that this is the main protective layer and the diamond, in fact, becomes defenseless against the influence of external factors. So we advise you to be as careful as possible with such jewelry so that it retains its color as long as possible.

If we talk about the products of popular brands in this segment, then we should first of all name such well-known companies, the name of which has already become a household name - Tiffany, Cartier, Pandora, Bulgari, Waltera, and also Chopard. Every person knows these names. They produce jewelry of the highest quality that will captivate the spirit. True, the cost will be appropriate in this case.

In general, not only these, but also other manufacturers can offer the client whatever he wants. Diamonds can be inlaid not only with jewelry, but even equipment. For example, Apple. Today this is a very popular service and so things also serve as an indicator of status and will always be in demand.

In general, as you can see, everything related to diamonds, as well as jewelry with them, continues to be popular, despite the price that not everyone can pay.But this does not change the order of things for a long time - as then diamonds mesmerized the powerful with their brilliance, so today they beckon people with their amazing light and charm.
