April 24th, 2010
Getting an engagement ring is a process that takes more than just picking the one with the “biggest” diamond. Making sure your diamond has a high color, good clarity, and the perfect cut are the greatest concerns one should have when buying a stone and are much more important than size. While some may feel that a finger size is needed, if you don’t have the size you can just get a standard 6 1/2 and adjustments can always be made. But at the end of the day, ” the emotion that rides with a marriage proposal is so high that even if he bought the worst diamond it would be perfect,” says Mervis.

The common misconception with the certificate, however, is that they do not say whether a diamond is beautiful or not, for any diamond can get a certificate. “Certificates are important and they will tell you a lot of things, but not everything. So use it is as a guide but do not rely solely on it since it does not tell the whole story,” says Ronnie Mervis.
