Factors to consider when exploring engagement rings in Washington, DC
When deciding which ring to choose, it’s important to consider all factors. Buying an engagement ring is an investment, so you want to make sure you make the right choice. Here are some elements to consider:
- Durability- Diamonds and gemstones found in engagement rings are extremely durable. While rubies, emeralds, and sapphires are some of the more common durable gemstones, there are many other options for stones that are equally as durable and beautiful.
- Style- The style of a ring is largely decided by the preference of the person buying it. Engagement rings can be ready to buy or custom-made to your preferences. This ensures a wide range of options for every person. In addition to choosing a unique gemstone, the cut of the stone, placement & positioning on the ring, use of additional gems, and ring color are all customizable options.
- Color- While some gemstones are only found in one or two colors, certain stones can range anywhere from pink and purple to green and blue. In addition to being able to choose the color of a stone, there are also factory-colored diamonds, which can allow your gemstone color horizons to be expanded even more.
