Engagement ring is a symbol of one’s love. The precious diamonds embedded in the ring remind you of an everlasting love. Whether it is an asscher cut or princess cut, an engagement ring is something very close to one’s heart. A lot of emotions are bound to it and hence, buying an engagement ring is the most special purchase you make before your wedding.  Although, there are some parts you completely manage on your own, there are a few pro tips that will help you while picking the ring.

1. Do your homework - Even before you pick a day for shopping, be certain of what she likes. Exciting as the purchase might sound, it will also be a stressful journey. Since you will be shopping alone, you must know what she likes. If you’re really lucky, she might even drop hints. Be careful and understand. Whether it’s a princess cut or pear cut, asscher cut or vintage inspired design, just know it well before you pick the engagement ring.

2. Know her ring size - If you’re picking an engagement ring, but don’t know your her ring size, here are a few handy tips - Borrow and trace her ring size when she isn’t around on a piece of paper, or push the ring into a bar of soap and make an impression. You may also wear the ring on your finger and mark where it fits. A jeweller can use these measurements to estimate her ring size.

3. Spoil her with her favourite - Now is the time when you must choose and invest in something she would really fall for. You may love gold but she prefers platinum. You may want to  keep it simple but she has always dreamed of classic princess cut… It may be your wallet but remember it’s her ring. So make your choices accordingly.

4. Invest time in detailed research - If you don’t know much about diamonds and step in a shop for the first time, all diamonds in the beginning appear the same. But don’t get deceived, take some time before making a purchase and study in detail. Look for better options. Ring shopping is indeed the most stressful moments in a man’s life. But if done properly, it can also be one of the most memorable purchases you’ll ever make. I’m talking specifically about learning the 4Cs — learn about the diamond’s cut, carat, clarity, and colour. Be certain before you pick one.

5. Pick a jeweller - Buying an engagement ring is an expensive affair and hence you will buy it from a jeweller you can trust. Look for jewellers who have earned accreditation from GIA. If you stay in Hatton garden, then Abraham’s diamonds can be your destination for picking the right ring.
