The Most Popular Gemstones For Engagement Rings

Another benefit is their beautiful meaning. Rubies are associated with passion, love, and courage. They are also thought to bring safety, peace, health, wisdom, and even success to those who wear them.

Moissanite

Love the look of a diamond but don’t want a diamond? Look no further than moissanite! Featuring incredible sparkle and the same colorless shine as traditional diamonds, moissanite is a great choice for gemstone engagement rings. Their low price point compared to traditional diamonds makes them a favorite for those shopping on a budget.

Their incredible durability is another “pro” for moissanite engagement rings. Because after all, this is a ring you’ll wear every day, you want it to be strong! But they aren’t just strong, moissanite engagement rings are a wonderfully unique choice featuring incredible sparkle and shine.

There are so many benefits to choosing a sapphire engagement ring. In addition to brilliant color options, September’s birthstone ranks 9 on the Mohs Hardness Scale, making it a great choice for a ring you’ll wear every day.

Particularly popular with royalty, sapphires are also associated with beautiful symbolism. Associated with love, romance, and good luck, as well as health and spiritual clarity, this gemstone is as beautiful in appearance as it is in meaning.

Emerald engagement rings aren’t a good choice, they’re a GREAT choice! In addition to their brilliant green color, they have beautiful meaning. Often associated with nature, May’s birthstone is thought to give intuition, foresight, and even protection to those who wear it. Emeralds are even thought to protect wearers against evil and help cure disease.

An important thing to remember is that emeralds are not quite as durable as diamonds, so treat your emerald gemstone engagement ring with extra care.

Choosing a ruby for your engagement ring ensures you get a ring that has beautiful color, is strong enough for everyday wear, and has meaningful symbolism. So celebrate your love with a brilliant gemstone engagement ring that symbolizes love and enjoy every scintillating sparkle.

Moissanite is a great alternative to diamonds. If you love the traditional colorless shine but not the price tag, and want something just as strong, look no further. Another plus, when choosing Moissanite you do not need to compromise on sparkle because this gemstone has incredible brilliance on par with the traditional gemstone. Available in every cut and shape (again just like diamonds), we love moissanite!

Many factors, such as the 4Cs, help determine the cost of a gemstone. Two gemstones of the same size can be wildly different prices depending on quality and the type of gemstone.

For example, moissanites are a popular diamond alternative thanks to their lower price point but similar look and sparkle.

When it comes to gemstones with color, sapphires are generally more affordable than traditional colorless diamonds, while emeralds and rubies are often more expensive. Rubies are normally more expensive than emeralds, sapphires, and moissanite. The rarity of emeralds and rubies is one factor that leads to the higher price tag.

Any setting you want! The great thing about gemstone engagement rings is that you can choose whatever setting and metal color that you like best. Love a classic look? Go for a solitaire, three stone, or halo setting. Want your band to sparkle? Choose a dazzling pavé setting. Looking for something that feels unique and timeless? Why not try a vintage setting?

The point is that choosing a gemstone does not limit the setting you put it in. So whether you design it yourself or go with a readymade option, you are sure to shine bright in a gemstone engagement ring.

Like all fine jewelry, it is important to properly care for your gemstone engagement ring so it will stay as beautiful and sparkle as bright as the day you buy it. Make sure to keep it clean and avoid scratches and dents as much as possible.

Follow these tips to protect your engagement ring:

• Store your gemstone engagement ring separately, preferably in its original packaging such as the ring box or a soft jewelry bag.
• Avoid extreme temperatures, particularly intense heat and strong light.
• Remove your jewelry in situations such as the beach, chlorinated pools, the gym, showering, cleaning, and dealing with lotions and makeup.
