Executive Summary About Engagement Jewelry by Dan Joines

Traditionally engagement jewelry is thought of in terms of a diamond solitaire gold band ring. Budget is a primary factor when choosing an engagement band. Aside from the regular diamond solitaire, various stones can surround the solitaire.

Ring bands can be thin, wide and jeweled encrusted. Engagement Jewelry can be made from gold, but platinum and silver are popular options as well. Carat size is based on weight, so a 2-carat diamond may look quite different from a 2-carat emerald.

The person looking for an emerald cut may not be happy if a marquise cut stone is the ring box. There are classic solitaire settings, but cathedral, bezel and contour settings are also available. Rings can often be custom made, and it costs a bit more.
