Tips for Choosing a Gemstone Engagement Ring

Tip #17-Considering Your Lifestyle: Be sure to choose an gemstone engagement ring that is suitable for her lifestyle. If she is more of a no-nonsense girl with a very busy lifestyle, it may be a good idea to consider a classic or three stone design engagement ring. If she likes to make a statement and often wears bold, eye catching rings, then take a closer look at our gemstone engagement rings with larger center stones, wide bands, or ones that are simply dripping in diamonds. The most popular sizes for the gemstones in a gemstone engagement ring are 1 to 2 carats. A gemstone engagement ring is like a piece of art, and it does require a certain amount of care. Really all you need to use is common sense. For example, even though you may want to put the ring on and never give it another thought, it is better not to wear your gemstone engagement ring taking a shower, doing housework, or working in the garden, for example. Your ring will stay cleaner and newer looking if you are more careful with it. If you do decide that it's easier for your lifestyle to wear the engagement ring all of the time, just be sure to clean it regularly. Pay particular attention to the underside of the gemstone and diamonds since this is where most of the dirt and grime tends to accumulate. Also it is a good idea to have your setting checked regularly. The more wear and tear and the more active the lifestyle, the more of a chance you may have that a stone may be damaged or fall out. Settings can loosen over time with normal wear and tear. Some of the more delicate gemstone engagement ring styles, with lots of tiny diamonds or a light metal weight, do require more care and thought. But don't let that discourage you! Some of the most beautiful rings we offer are either delicate or are done with lots of diamonds.  If the workmanship is exceptional, what you would expect for an engagement ring, then for the most part, no matter what your lifestyle, you will have very few, if any, issues with your ring.
