2. Engagement Ring Overview

Relationships are held together by love and commitment that we try to display as much as possible in everything we do for one another, for example; writing cards, sending flowers and/or buying gifts. An engagement ring is a declaration of love like no other; the giver of the engagement ring offers to take a lifetime engagement on love and devotion and the receiver commits to the same by accepting and wearing it. Here are some traditions, points of interest, tips and suggestions that will help you choose, appreciate, wear and care better for an engagement ring.

3. The Tradition

Engagement rings traditionally signify that the person wearing it is in love with and committed to the one who presented the ring or in other words ‘taken’. Engagement rings date back to the ancient Egyptians who believed that it should be worn on the ring finger, where is still worn today, because through that finger runs a vein that flows the blood straight to the heart while the Romans used to make the engagement ring out of steel to symbolize strength and eternity.

Today the engagement ring symbolizes much the same things and those are: love, commitment and a wedding in the wings for the happy couple. Traditionally women are the ones who wear engagement rings however some countries and traditions will include men to wear them as well though they will be usually subtler engagement rings then those for women, depending on each individuals style and personality.

The reason why women usually wear engagement rings and not men in most countries, cultures and traditions is because men traditionally propose marriage. Some cultures and traditions will have an engagement ceremony instead where rings will be exchanged without a formal wedding proposal being made by either side.

4. Diamond: The Official Gemstone For Engagement Rings

Diamonds are the strongest of the gemstones and that is why they are labeled as lasting forever and they are also known as the girl’s best friend but what made them the official engagement ring gemstone nobody really knows. The fact remains that diamond inspires purity and eternity through its translucent sparkle and strength, which provides more then enough reason to tie it to the bond of love and commitment that is the essence of any couple that are getting engaged.

Before plunging into purchasing any diamond jewelry, especially an engagement ring there are a few characteristics about diamonds that will help you make the right choice if you are aware of them at the time of purchase. Diamonds are graded by color, clarity, cut and carat also known as the four C’s; the price of the diamond will be calculated according to these four characteristics.

All jewelry stores in Bridgeview will be able to provide you with a diamond chart that will show you the color and clarity or the diamond so you can decide what you want to buy. All diamonds are graded and all jewelers must mention grades when presenting a diamond especially in an engagement ring.
