1. You absolutely must have knowledge about the 4 C’s of diamonds. The 4 C’s which stands for color, cut, clarity and carat determines how valuable a diamond is. One thing most experts agree on is this. Rather buy a better quality diamond than a bigger one.
The quality of the diamond is very important when designing your own engagement ring. If you study the 4 C’s then you will be just fine. Further towards the bottom of this article you will see a link to my website where I explain the 4 C’s in much more detail. One thing I’d like to mention right now is the cut of the diamond. This is the most important aspect to look at when buying a diamond and you cannot compromise on the cut. I’d say always go for an ideal cut as this is what directly influences the sparkle and brilliance of the diamond.

2. After you selected the right diamond you will then have to select the setting for the ring. Here you need to know a little more about what your girlfriend likes when it comes to jewelry. Does she like white gold, yellow gold, platinum, solitaire or 3 stone rings?
You need to know these things in order to choose the perfect setting that she will absolutely fall in love with.
3. The final part of designing your own engagement ring is making sure that you buy the right diamond and setting from a reputable company at the right price and the diamond has to be certified. Preferably from the GIA. You can read further about this on my website as well. The GIA stands for “The Gemological Institute Of America” They thoroughly inspect each diamond and rates them according to the 4 C’s. They then issue the diamond with a certificate which adds value and reassurance to the buyer.
