  4. Decide on the metal type.

    The two major types of metals used for an engagement ring are platinum and gold.
    The price difference between a platinum and a gold diamond engagement ring is mostly attribuable to the metal's purity level.
    The platinum diamond engagement ring is normally $500 to $800 more expensive than a gold diamond engagement ring since there is more pure platinum in it. Also, it is 66% heavier than 14k gold.

      • Platinum

    Platinum has a naturally white metal with a beautiful brilliance that emphasizes the brilliance and shine of diamonds or diamond alternatives.

      • Gold

    24 Karat gold is 100 % pure gold. It is, however, too soft to be used in most jewelry. As a result, gold is mixed with other alloys to make it more durable and secure for gemstone settings, such as 18 karat gold (75 % pure gold) and 14 karat gold, which is the most commonly used in fine jewelry (58.3 % pure gold).

  5. Pick the color of the metal band.

    The common engagement ring colors of gold are white, yellow, and rose. White gold is the most popular choice for an engagement ring

  6. Find out the finger size needed.

How to Buy A Diamond Engagement Ring in Albuquerque, NM?

To eliminate any mistakes while purchasing an engagement ring, you should set your own budget, pick the right seller, and read carefully the return policies available. Read more...

  • Set The Right Budget: How Much Should You Spend?

    You've probably heard about the general guideline that an engagement ring should cost 2 to 3 months of your salary. Also, according to The Knot's 2021 - How Much to Spend on an Engagement Ring, the average American spends $6,000 on an engagement ring. That is why, there is no such thing as "the perfect" amount to spend on an engagement ring. You should only spend what you can afford and evaluate your personal financial status.
    If you are on a "tight" budget, you should be able to find flexible payment options, 0% APR financing such as Affirm, a layaway plan, or credit payment options.

  • The Best Diamond Alternatives:

    Lab grown and especially lab created diamonds such as moissanite, considered the most unique alternative to a diamond, cost on average 90% less than diamonds of equal quality (see the 4C’s).
    If you can't afford your "dream ring" right now, you should consider upgrading your engagement ring at the appropriate date. This is something your jeweler should be able to help you with.

  • Why is acquiring online a better option than acquiring at a brick and mortar store?

    Spend less money without sacrificing quality: Online retailers do not have the same storefront costs as brick-and-mortar retailers, so they may pass the savings on to their customers.
    Larger choice of engagement rings: Visiting several stores in person to look at a small selection of engagement rings would take longer than browsing hundreds of engagement rings styles online.
    Time-saving, 24/7 shopping: Customers can save a lot of time and money by buying an engagement ring online. There is no more stress anymore to go from one jeweler to the next without guarantee to find what you are expecting.
