Before jumping into buying an engagement ring just because you are smitten
by how pretty it is, first consider our suggestions. You will be wearing
the ring for the rest of your life, (well, at least 50% of you will),
so make sure you purchase the right engagement ring design that suits
your lifestyle the best.
- Determine Your Lifestyle- Do you consider yourself an active person?
Does your career require intensive labor with your hands, or do you
sit at a desk for most of the day? For active lifestyles, the engagement
ring design should include a setting that is a flush or channel mounting.
The last thing you want is to have your stone caught on a piece of furniture
or poke a person's eye out. However, if you sit in a chair all day,
you can probably afford to wear a raised setting such as a classic 4
or 6 prong mounting.
- Everyday Wear- The type of precious metal and stone is extremely important
to factor in depending. Corrosive environments such as a factory or
even a desk job can be highly detrimental to the longevity of your engagement
ring. Believe it or not, paper is mildly abrasive and can take its toll,
especially if you are handling paper day in and day out. For these situations,
opt for a heavier metal such as platinum.
- Gemstones- Make sure you choose an engagement ring design that secures gemstones. A bezel or
channel setting is safer than a prong. If you do get an engagement ring with a prong, opt for 6
claws over 4 claws for extra security.
