How to Choose A Diamond

Selecting your diamond ring

 

 

SET YOUR BUDGET

Explore our diamond ring options. Start to establish your budget based on your income, what you feel you want to spend and the quality of diamond you wish to purchase. A Mazal Diamond Assistant will be happy to assist you to determine the selection within your budget.

 

 

DO YOUR DIAMOND HOMEWORK

Find a balance between the 4 C's – Cut, Color, Clarity & Carat. But however important the 4C's are, remember beauty is what really matters at the end.

 

 

CHOOSE A SETTING AND A DIAMOND SHAPE

The setting is the “ring” portion without the center diamond. It is the band (the shank), any accent stones, and the prongs or bezel which hold the center diamond.

 

 

SIZING

Tips on finding the ring size:

- "borrow" one of your significant other’s rings; trace on a paper around the inside of the ring – use a narrow pencil to trace accurately

- take your significant other’s jewelry to be cleaned and have one of the rings sized at the same time.
