mining and excavation tools This shows that a diamond will not easily loose its luster over time Indeed, it is a timeless gift
to the person receiving it.
Diamond rings come in a variety of shapes, cut, weights, color and clarity. Each of these qualities plays a role in its
value For instance, a larger diamond with a bigger carat size will cost more than a smaller one The shape refers to
appearance of its top, which can be round, pear, and emerald among other shapes Cut refers to the angles at which the
facets of the lower section intersect. They play an important role in the optical qualities of the diamond The color of a
diamond refers the tint on it. The clearer a diamond, the more expensive it is Some people however prefer diamonds with
coloration, especially if more than one diamond is to be set on the ring Finally, the clarity of a diamond refers to the
presence of impurities in diamond The clearer a piece, the costlier it is
The setting of the diamond is an important aspect of the choice and design of a diamond wedding ring The two common
options are gold and platinum Historically, gold has been used as a choice material for making precious metals Pure
gold, at 24-carat, is never ideal for jewelry because gold is a very malleable material So jewelers use lower carat gold,
alloyed with other metals for strength to make a setting for the diamond Platinum on the other hand is very tough and can
be used at high levels of purity. These settings enhance the beauty of a diamond ring in unique ways
